Nba 2014

Tonight's games are huge - home teams cannot go down 0-2.

I suspect Thunder will rebound to make it 1-1.

Pacers - Wiz - WHO KNOWS with Pacers but all pressure on them tonight.

The Wiz played like shit and still could of won.... game 3 should be a barn burner! Assuming the guys start hitting shots...Hibbert, game of his life, traveled and got a no call at the end which was a key shot for the Pacers....

It will be interesting to see how the Blazers handle their Game 1 thumping.

And why was Dame guarding Parker?

Feeling very disillusioned after game 2. I know the Spurs are a good team, but they aren't This good! I can handle my team losing a hard fought game. I'm struggling however that they doubled over and fell to they're knees at the mere sight of the Spurs. Getting beat by Parker, Duncan, or Ginobli is one thing. Getting beat by Baynes, Diaw and other scrubs is just plain embarrassing.

It's a bad matchup for the Blazers. Spurs do essentially what Portland does, but just a little better and with more experience and depth. Reason they have best record in the league. Hopefully Portland can win one or two at home but don't see them winning this series or extending it too far.

Big road win by Thunder last night in LA. And pacers show some signs of life!

Clip - Thunder game Sunday was wild! Clips score on last 18 of 19 possessions.

Pacers seem to be heating up now....Wiz on the ropes.

OKC - Clips series is by far best of the 2nd round.

Wiz showed their youth a bit.

HUGE game 5 tonight - Thunder v Clips. Should be good one.

Blazers got a token win last night. It will be over back in SA in 5.

The team that plays the closest thing to defense will win.

 

[okatty35]

Wow

Game 5 - Thunder - Clips = WILD! Crazy finish with blown calls, superstar collapses, huge plays, blown plays. Good stuff. High drama.

Pacers get out rebounded by 39? Really?!?!? What a dysfunctional team.

Hard to say as a Blazer fan, but I agree! They are beaten mentally, if not physically. If they could have somehow dug deep earlier in the series, maybe. But these Spurs are too good, too deep, and too experienced to lose 4 in a row.

I've been pulling for blazers but you said it well. Spurs may be back in finals v Heat. Not sure thunder or clips will do much better.

 

[okatty35]

After all that....conf finals are #1 and 2 teams on both sides!

 

[okatty35]

Ibaka out for rest of playoffs. That ends Thunder Championship hopes effectively.

damn it!

Great start by the Pacers. They had to get game 1 to get things going in the right direction. I suspect Heat will come to play in game 2.

Thunder - Spurs tonight in SA. Thunder usually matches up well but Ibaka out is huge and totally changes the way Thunder can defend Spurs. Adams is not experienced and has a chance to get lost in the Spurs high ball movement offense.

I've gotten to know the Pacers, but still, would you like to see the Pacers in the final? or Miami? Which one would you watch?

If the Thunder beat Spurs then I want Pacers - cause I think Thunder can beat Pacers. If the Spurs beat Thunder then I want Heat - cause I think it would be best final series.

 

[loveupskirt]

With the way the Spurs are playing and Ibaka being out, I see the Spurs in the final. I think it's their year.

Hard to argue with that logic. Ibaka really has that rim protection presence that can have an impact on a game even when not clear from the stats. And Spurs have been a well oiled machine. WIth th at said Thunder matches up with them better than many teams (Blazers for example).

Well, having one of only two players in the NBA who can't really be shut down does help a bit!

Agree! Wasn't bashing the Blazers - just saying they play so much like the Spurs there is not much contrast to their games whereas the Thunder is a pretty stark contrast. Faster and quicker shots with very little ball movement for the most part. Why the Thunder swept them in season. But then Nets swept Heat too and they are home watching now!

Miami just doesnt match up well with Indiana,not looking so good for Miami

I won't shed a tear if Miami loses, but I think they're going to come out on top in the series.
