We should be playing the Warriors

Golden State is lucky to get the 9th best team in the west, SA needs to blow it all up just not enough talent. Shame that Denver couldn't have their spot.

Spurs suck away from home

Its still early and just one game but I don't think we would fair any better. Maybe some, same for Denver. I just think the Warriors in the playoffs are a different animal than the Warriors we have seen lately. Yea there is no Steph but there are still three all stars on that squad and at least two hall of famers.

Spurs having coaching and experience but they have at best marginal high level talent without Leonard. LMA is a fine player but he would be a distant 3rd on our team, talent will shine through in the postseason. I think we would have been a real thorn in their side, I mean we beat them without Butler when they were without Steph and we were a complete mess without Jimmy.

Not really fair to say when they're missing a top 5 player.

So what? Golden State is one of the best teams ever. They're still a really good team without Curry. That doesn't have anything to do with San Antonio needing to blow it up.

Does that player even want to be there?

This one should be a decently competitive series

A little bit that I saw the Toronto vs Wizards game in first half, I liked this duel more than GSW vs SA. The tempo seems higher.
Wizards seem to me a more talented team than Toronto in my opinion.
In the other duel SA is not something special without Leonard

This one has a legitimate shot of going long for a 1 vs 8 notwithstanding today's result.

For all the crap colangelo gets, he built a great team. I honestly think the 6ers dont miss a beat without Embiid or Simmons. Brown is a great coach with a great system and the 6ers acquired smart depth for that system.

Thibs basically threw some good ingredients into a pot with no regard for chemistry.

Maybe not, but that's not about talent.

Simmons getting that rubio treatment.

No one is 5 ft of him and the heat use that to go on a big run.

Colangelo didn't build ****, this is mostly the work of Hinkie.
