Oklahoma City Thunder vs. Golden State Warriors. Who you got?

[Budadiiii]

Thunder in 6.

GS can't beat OKC in a 7 game series.

[Jef]

if GOATbrook plays like he did tonight, it will be tough.

really - just difficult to envision a team winning ANY playoff game if their PG has bad nights along the lines of 24/9/9/1.

THUNDER UP (tho).

[dabigbaws]

Thunder in 5 tbh

[Cowboy Thunder]

Thunder sweep

[Cocaine80s]

Thunder in 7


First round exit for GS :roll:

[buddha]

Thunder will get the 7th seed.

It's gonna be the Clippers @ GS.

How crazy would it be if everything you just predicted came true

[Joyner82reload]

How crazy would it be if everything you just predicted came true

Well, after the first 2 games I would be making some crazy bets for the next 4 games...that's for sure

[Budadiiii]

People doubting OKC all year and they're gonna beat the championship favorites in the first round. Damn!

Here is OKC's remaining schedule and what SHOULD happen

Dallas W
@ Charlotte W
Denver W
Indiana W
@ Phoenix W
@ Portland L
@ LAL W
Philly W
@ Chicago L
Toronto W
LAC W
Minnesota W
Chicago W
@ Dallas L
Boston W
Atlanta L
Miami W
LAL W
@ San Antonio L
@ Utah W
@ Phoenix L
Dallas W
@ Memphis L
Houston W
San Antonio L
Sacramento W
@ Indiana W
Portland W
@ Minnesota W

That would put them at 49-33, which would probably be the 6 seed. I don't see the Clippers or Dallas finishing with a better record

Thanks for the effort. I don't really want to play the 1 seed in the first round, but whatever.

Would be nice to get a softer team like the Rockets, Clips, or Trailblazers.

[Heavincent]

Warriors in 6

Better offensively and defensively, deeper, and they play the right way (unlike OKC's iso shit).

[Prime_Shaq]

If Bogut is healthy then Warriors in 6/7. If Bout is out then Thunder in 6.

[All Net]

Warriors in 6

but I expect OKC to finish higher.

[T_L_P]

Warriors in 6, if they replicate what the Spurs did.

Lee and Bogut get serious PT together, keeping Ibaka near the rim? OKC in 6.

You swear OKC hasnt beaten the Spurs many times. :lol

GSW


This man knows what he's talking about.

[imnew09]

OKC.

Durant and GOATBROOK gon drop 35ppg

[Al Thornton]

Warriors in 6

playing the right way doesn't matter. it's impossible to guard westbrook and durant, it is very possible to stop curry.

[SamuraiSWISH]

Given how the season has gone, if they meet up in the first round that'd be epic. Healthy, motivated, and smart OKC Thunder is the only team that can beat the Warriors out west. I see that series going 7 games with the winner being the team with the series best player, and most mental toughness. So probably OKC.

[Cocaine80s]

The key is Durant. He always goes off on Golden State

Curry does alright with Westbrook but no one on that team can stop Durant.

[Lexington Steel]

OKC would literally use them as toilet paper and wipe Perk's filthy ass with it.

After that, every OKC player would take turns poking whatever that disgusting, hideous, malformed thing is on Speights' head in attempt to pop that shit and put it away for good.

It'll get ugly. Warriors know what's coming.

Steve Kerr isn't an idiot. He'll use Green, Barnes, and Speights to pull Ibaka away from the rim.

Curry
Thompson
Iggy
Barnes
Green/Bogut (depending on whether Ibaka is playing PF or C)

Perfect lineup to use against OKC. They don't have any big men to take advantage of the ultra small ball. Knowing Brooks, he'd still have Perkins out there for 25 minutes :lol

[J Shuttlesworth]

Thunder could be the scariest 8th seed of all time. Jesus. Klay is just not lengthy enough to do anything against Durant, but Curry seemed to do okay against Westbrook last time they played. GSW has the best HCA in the league... I'd say dubs in 6 or 7 assuming Bogut is healthy. I hope we get a OKC/Grizzlies rematch in the first round though

Not when Brooks relegates him to bench warming duty in favor of Porkins :lol

Russ had something like 17/16/17 last game m8

[dunksby]

Form plays a major role in first round matchups, teams who peak post AS break have a better chance against opponents of close caliber. I can see OKC peaking reaching the end of RS, so if they make it to the postseason, the Thunder could beat anybody.

[J Shuttlesworth]

Russ had something like 17/16/17 last game m8

Ahh forgot about that game. Was thinking of the game where russy was like 10/30

[tgan3]

It will be a tough series but GSW in 7

[ArbitraryWater]

Would love that series, be tight as fukk, OKC in 6.. GSW busted in first round ayy lmao

[RightTwoCensor]

Thunder haven't been title contenders since they've had James Harden.

Golden State is too stacked to lose. Stacked teams usually have better records because they're stacked. Did I mentioned they were stacked?

[salwan]

warriors in 7.

Any team with Harden isn't really a title contender, playoff choker. :lol

Looks realistic, but why wouldn't the Mavericks finish with a better record? Even the Clips will, IMO.

6 losses difference is pretty big, but LAC needs Blake back desperately.
