Thunder Join Spurs In Securing Homecourt In Finals 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Sat Apr 12, 2014 4:41 pm

The Oklahoma City Thunder have joined the San Antonio Spurs in securing homecourt advantage in The Finals should they make it.


The Thunder are guaranteed to have a better record than both the Indiana Pacers and Miami Heat with their win on Friday.

How can the Thunder AND Spurs be guaranteed homecourt in the finals? One of them would have to eliminate each other before making it to the finals! More poor editing...

Dang so I guess Raps lose to Spurs in 7 because they have home court advantage

Spoiler:
Just kidding Raps will lose in 6 first round

If it is Brooklyn, they will lose. If they play Chicago, Toronto may have a chance to win the series since they can score.

Far from it....don't even try to go there, my observation has nothing to do with my team not making it this season.

Yeah I saw it, all I'm saying is that in the West I feel the tougher series will come down to HCA. I see it being real tough for the Thunder to possibly have to win a Game 7 on the Spurs floor. I know the Thunder have done well against the Spurs in the regular season, but the playoffs could be a different story.
