Spurs in 6

[Jameerthefear]

good. fvck okc.

[NumberSix]

Any word on what the injury is?

[Springsteen]

oh ***

[NumberSix]

good. fvck okc.
Hey, that's not cool. Physical ailments are fcuking terrible.

[robert_shaww]

if this is true, doesnt change much, collison is a great player, OKC still in 5, maybe 6.

[Real14]

Any word on what the injury is?
Ask Lebron James.

[onhcetum]

didn't realize it was that serious...

[COnDEMnED]

Is Tony Parker still injured? Miss any games? I still think OKC in 7.

[SOD 21]

if this is true, doesnt change much, collison is a great player, OKC still in 5, maybe 6.

It is true and the Oklahoma media is also reporting the same that he is out for the rest of the playoffs.

[Wavves]

You're an idiot.

Huge blow for OKC.

I love what Collison does, but his impact is great over a short period of time, not over a full game.

Adams is going to have to be huge now if OKC are to continue to be successful.

[Rocketswin2013]

idc
:applause: **** those cheaters

[inclinerator]

i knew it, i said it in the other thread that he got a broken foot

[ace23]

didn't realize it was that serious...
This. Inb4 sweep

[SOD 21]

Ibaka was arguably the key to Oklahoma City's success defensively against San Antonio with his ability to protect the rim.

Your a idiot Tony Parker is going to run wild along with every one. Maybe if Adams steps his game up to another level

[Keno]

come on...have you watched collison? he is even better shooter than ibaka...great defender...doesnt change a thing...

stop it. only better at setting screens maybe. but the mid range jumper, rim protection is gone. tony parker will have another field day in the paint.

[HoopsFanNumero1]

Another asterisk for the Spurs. Seriously, they got away with Westbrook being injured last year and now it's Ibaka.

[Springsteen]

This sucks major di*k for OKC, damn.

[Keno]

Another asterisk for the Spurs. Seriously, they got away with Westbrook being injured last year and now it's Ibaka.

chill bruh. okc has gotten two asterisks in a row. i think it's karma that a key player is injured.

[imdaman99]

Ibaka guarded Duncan pretty decently. Huge blow for OKC... but I think they can still get it done if everyone else picks up for his slack. They just can't get beaten off the dribble as much because no one is gonna be there behind them to protect their asses.

Big blow for the Thunder, considering how well Ibaka played Duncan and how good a shooter he was (remember his 11/11 game against us?).

Lol at this fool thinking it means nothing (I'm talking to you, robert shaww, who's clearly not a Spurs fan or someone who's been watching basketball very long).

[SilkkTheShocker]

Oh well.

[Solefade]

with the kind of help they're getting from the refs it doesnt really matter anyway

I wonder how Chris Paul feels about this. Or how Deandre Jordan feels after the refs raped him on moving screen calls. Or even Blake Griffin's testicles? There may never be a little Blake because of this hostile idiot Ibaka.

Not really. Everything right for them last year in the finals and they still lost. Hot 3pt shooting, wade hurt, and ton of calls. They won't play that well again.

[davehos]

So we're not going to have any highlights of Ibaka punching Tim Duncan in the balls?

:D

[Cocaine80s]

[Andrei89]

Spurs in 4 and then Heat in 4

[crawdaddy4ou]

I would run this lineup at the Spurs all series and roll the dice.

Westbrook
Jackson
Sefalosha/ Lamb
Durant
Adams/ Collison

[T_L_P]

Not really. Everything right for them last year in the finals and they still lost. Hot 3pt shooting, wade hurt, and ton of calls. They won't play that well again.

Parker and Manu sucked though. If they play well that will make up for Green's hot shooting. :confusedshrug:

And Patty/Marco can get hot with the best of them.

[BlackVVaves]

OKC has enough talent between KD and Westbrook to win this series, but without a third option they are good as dead against Miami. Shit, they were already unlikely to beat the Heat as it was.

As a basketball fan, I rather see Miami v Spurs in the Finals.

[Rocketswin2013]

Honestly this just took alot of excitement out of the playoffs.

[Dr Seuss]

cue all the miami fans acting like its no big deal and some bench scrub will step up and make a difference against timmy D

o wait, their insecure asses already set up camp in here.

shitty deal

[truhooper]

that sucks

[BlazerRed]

The guy who sparks their lethal fast-break offense with his blocks and rim protection. Ibaka is crucial to the Thunder. I don't see them getting past the Spurs now.. and if they do they won't beat the Heat.

Another asterisk season for Leflop, how many gifts will this guy get during his career :facepalm

[Warfan]

Tough break man. I'd say the spurs have a better chance to beat miami so I guess they're still something to be happy for.

its cool dude, if KD is as good as Lebron then he can carry his team past the spurs with healthy westbrook, reggie, steven adams and nick collison just like how Lebron got to the 2012 finals with unhealthy wade and bosh :confusedshrug: :confusedshrug:

memphis without randolph, okcrefs vs memphis, okcrefs vs clippers, asterisk if okc win?? if spurs win asterisk because no ibaka??? dude stfu

Because OKC fans have been ranting and raving all season about how much better Durant got on defense. I figured he could do it.

That's 3/3 rings won under false pretences now. First gifted a pass through the Celtics in 12', then handed the finals by the refs as well. Then OKC were the best looking team last year and Westbrook goes down, now OKC hobbled by injury again.

Seriously. Leflop is the luckiest "star" player there has ever been. Dude could easily have no rings.

without the whistles Miami would have won by 15 every game vs OKC. Miami shits on OKC in fact.

huge loss

does not guarantee a win for the Spurs

OKC has the two best players in this series :(

[thefatmiral]

going to miss Duncan facials on ibaka

[rmt]

All this means is more small ball which does not favor SAS. At least with Ibaka in the lineup and Scott Brooke's insistence on Perkins, there was some tall ball. Don't opponents realize that going small takes Splitter out and SAS' defense suffers?

Okc has no answer inside the arc defensively now.. Post Perkins, and get him in foul trouble and the Middle is wide open. Duncan will feast.

the problem ibaka was the perfect big to play small ball... without him they will need to play perkins/collison with a small ball... it will slow them down.... im not sure they can play successful small ball without ibaka

Yeah, but I think that was kind of a fluky series. Refs were definitely favouring the spurs, but I never actually thought SAS could win the series. Even when it was 3-2, I was fully confident that MIA would win the last 2 games.

[SHAQisGOAT]

People seem to forget that he was also averaging 12.2 ppg on 61.6% in the post-season, it's not only his defense and even rebounding, even though his D was many times major for them.

I don't know what will happen, but it should be another great series and I honestly don't know who would win, it's that close. Lebron playing like he did in last year's game 7, Spurs won't have a chance.

If he plays scared/passive, he will allow Spurs to do as they please.

Why should the Heat get fouls when Spurs were giving them (Lebron) all the space in the world to shoot and he didn't (until game 7)? Series should never have gone 7 games if he was confident in his jumper - think SAS will allow Durant that kind of space - he'd kill them.

[rmt]

Also, Ibaka could space the floor for them - out to the 3pt line. None of their remaining bigs can, and Parker will have no fear going into the paint.

[Lebron23]

Rooting for okc to beat the spurs, but no chance on hell they are wining this seroes without their 2 best players.

[rmt]

Yeah, but I think that was kind of a fluky series. Refs were definitely favouring the spurs, but I never actually thought SAS could win the series. Even when it was 3-2, I was fully confident that MIA would win the last 2 games.
