2016 Playoffs thread

Durant is back. If he and Russ had a little more help they'd be unstoppable.

Still wish them to lose. Then KD will go to Boston and win championship.

[Basti]

Really hoping the Spurs will pull through. Both because I really really like them but also because I hope that yet another 'early' playoff exit will make Durant really think about leaving OKC.

[Calinks]

Curry is unbelievable.

[Basti]

Curry is unbelievable.

I prefer black ground pepper.

*ba-dum-tiss*

But yeah, that guy is unreal.

The three point shooting in the playoffs has been ridiculous. We desperately need to find some shooters if we're ever going to make some noise in the playoffs. Lavine's showed good early signs.

[minimus]

Murray/Hield will fix our abysmal shooting.

[Calinks]

Playoffs baby!

Wow, it looks like Kevin MArtin is still broken.

[C.lupus]

Damn, the Spurs are out. Maybe Duncan's last game?

[Nitroglycerin]

Thunder peaked at the right time. What the hell happened to the Spurs.
I do like this version of Thunder to challenge Warriors

[Calinks]

Sad. I would have liked to see the Spurs pull it off again. I don't think Aldridge was up to task when it came to handling Duncans responsiblitles. He just isn't capable at the same level in that system. Kmart is still busted and was no help off the bench. Kawahi got dealt with too.

[southern wolf]

It's crazy to think the Blazers made it as far as the Spurs in the playoffs. That's not a shot at Aldridge or anything, but I never saw that coming.

Things are getting interesting. OKC won SAS who went to LMA and Leonard with ISOs instead of free flow offense with many passes. OKC used brute force of Adams, Ibaka and Kanter to dominate old Spurs. Now KD and Westbrook won against best offense in NBA...

P.S. This playoffs have convinced me that is too early for us to tell that we will be playoff team next year. Even with Thibs and top pick and FA. Speaking of wins number in regular season maybe, but we have no chance against these teams. We just don't belong to this club, we need experience, talent, coaching and chemistry. More important we need toughness, if we face guys like Bogut, Adams, Duncan, Valancunas, Whiteside. Even Byombo played well against us. Maybe in two years when Thibs can trust every guy on the floor to play within team defense and offense.

I looked it up, and we were 11-34 against playoff teams, 18-19 against lottery teams.

East 1-4: 4-4
East 5-8: 1-7
West 1-4: 3-11
West 5-8: 3-12

What a cowardly post. Have some faith in your team. You're a fan FFS.

This young club can hang with those teams and showed it last season. The teams that gave the pups trouble were the big slow physical grinding teams that played the half court game.

I actually think a playoff series against the likes of GSW or thunder would be very entertaining for all fans.

I do have faith in our team. However, next year might not your time the New Wolves Order. Not yet.

In my opinion Westbrook and Durant are the best duo and can win this title.
Two superstars who have both basketball skills and athleticism.
Maybe they would have won some more titles the previous years if they were both healthy
