Sorry Spurs....but OKC advances tonight

Won on Celtics ML last night unposted, and as a fan I like the Celtics and would like to see them play the Spurs in the finals. I also respect the older Spurs and if I was not betting tonight would  hope they win.

However, money is money, and OKC should win tonight. I gotta get going to work. This OKC team is for real. Undefeated at home in the playoffs. Any gameplan they draw up will not change the fact that 1 on 1 nearly every position is a mismatch. Westbrook size and speed against Parker, Harden when he is in can drive or pull up over and of the Spurs guards, Durant can score or setup teammates as needed...and he is clutch. He will have a huge impact tonight if he is doubled or not. Ibaka's jumpshots wont be 11 for 11 again, but is not a fluke either. He will continue stretching the defense. OKC too athletic for Duncan to have a huge game, regardless how hard he tries. I feel sorry for the veteran hard working respectable Spurs, but they are done tonight

OKC ML

Hey...You read my thread. Are you taking indirect shots at me. LOL

When the spurs win just don't call it a comeback ok.

Here's my gut feeling on the game tonight...

OKC closes them out.  Take a look at the last game.  Duncan has an above average game shooting % wise.  Manu goes crazy and they still couldn't win and that was at home.  Parker is being contained cause he can't hit an 18fter with consistancy...which is then hurting them in the pick n roll game as the OKC bigs are just packing the paint daring him to shoot.  Thus why you saw Manu inserted into the starting 5, and him handling the ball a lot of the time.  On top of it, OKC was forced to play small due to some questionable calls on Ibaka/Perkins early in the 1st half last game...

Bonner can't be on the floor in this series cause he can't do anything but a set shot from deep, and I think Danny Green has played waaaay over his head most of the season.  His numbers are a product of the Spurs system...and when defenses clamp down in the playoffs he hasn't done much.  Manu/Parker/Leonard are the only 3 that can essentially create their own shots.  OKC has turned this into a jump shooting series and they are the better team at it right now.

Star tonight will be Westbrook IMO

I unfortunately have been unable to get a response to confirm the play as of yet. I may end up unable to get a play in and just rooting for the Spurs afterall (to feel like I saved)   Worked 5AM-8:30PM today between jobs, and if I knew I wouldnt get a response I would have played online
