The reality is Steph Curry as a #1 option is dubious for a "contender". | ||

I'll let you know if I want to have a conversation about being and becoming. and you're still 6th and probably losing first round to LAC. Lee was terrible today and it was blessing he fouled out so draymond was on for the last play in regulation. barnes was simply trash, airball an uncontested pull up 3? then gave up 2 and1s following that, couldn't guard anyone. at the end of the day is, gws is a deceptively great defensive team, but also deceptively inefficient offensive team. like that stupid curry turnover where he did his patented wrap around pass that hit jermaine on the head, happens too often. | ||

Pretty sure he is a spurs fan!! Clippers to win it 4-1. | ||

Then stick him in the press box for the rest of the playoffs. It's amazing how much better NY and Tor have played over the years without the big italian in their line up. | ||

Also expecting not Chicago/Brooklyn to make the finals, and OKC to crush the playoffs and win the title. Confusing predictions... so Toronto/Washington/Bobcats are making the finals?? Also OKC are a knee away from having no chance and even at full health are hardly going to crush. Spurs will give them a very competitive series (playoff Duncan + big starter minutes), the clippers are very dangerous and if you're going on regular season Dallas is 2-1 up. A Spurs vs Miami repeat looks the most likely to me. Indiana's done and noone else in the East can take Miami in a Bo7 (except maybe Brooklyn, though they'd be beat up by Chicago). Chicago are going to be wrecked by round 2 with the minutes Thib's had them on, I see them putting up their usual fight but taking 4 games from Lebron? I just can't see that. Biggest threat for Spurs is OKC but even if it comes to that they've got a good chance. | ||

The Dubs are very good defensively (esp if Lee isn't playing) but they struggle on offence. Too streaky and don't get to the FT line enough (which is crucial come Playoffs). Iggy's been an outstanding acquisition for them but one thing he has struggled with this year is scoring. Barnes is atrocious. He's another Wes Johnson/Marv Williams. If Bogut did break a rib today then they're no hope of upsetting in the first round. Reality is they need a new coach, In saying all that, if a low seed is going to cause an upset, it will be the Dubs (unless the Grizz can sneak up to 6th and play the Clips :D ) | ||

I'd wager the winner is coming from out West this year. Boring prediction, but SAS looks the pick for me. KD is gonna go bananas though. | ||

Regarding Mark Jackson, he's clearly got some issues identifying rotations/offensive play-calling. But Lee's 'salbatross' and Barnes' struggles aren't really his doing. He's also reportedly very popular with his team, which does matter quite a bit, while being less popular with his front office (and some assistants?! what was that about?). I think it's fair to say that the warriors anticipated being more than the 6th seed this season, and not all of that is attributable to injuries. | ||

As much as I'd love to say Spurs will crush through, OKC definitely will be a challenge. You could point to the fact that OKC won the 4 regular season games, but they only played once since the All Star break and that was on a major rest differential. We'll just have to wait and see when they meet. | ||

Dubs are no chance now. Can't see them getting 30mins+ from O'Neal. | ||
