Should be a amazing series.

Go Spurs!!

There it is! Now the playoffs really start. This series is going to be difficult for sure. A dinged up Tony, hopefully we come in closer to full strength.

Wow Ibaka out for the playoffs with a calf injury.

That is wild! We've been there several times. Duncan and Ginobili injuries have derailed at least 3 runs. I want full health so we'd get to see who's really the best team. It's gonna be interesting series still, but we are the obvious favorites.

No Ibaka is huge for us. That means more Adams and Collison and that changes things obviously.

Reggie Jackson has had some big games against us all year and I expect that to continue in this series.

Old Man Fish will no doubt pull some BS out his ass and play like it's 2004 again.

Hopefully the refs swallow their whistles and let the teams play. OKC has been the recipient of some ridiculous calls so far in these playoffs.

If we play like we did against Dallas, we're toast. If we play like we did against Portland, I like our chances of meeting Miami again.

Here's to a fun WCF, and some revenge for 2012!!!!

Just wanted to come on here & say that there is currently a large amount of Sonics fans that are pulling for you guys' to beat the living hell out of that other team. Go Spurs Go! Cheers

Spurs need to attack Adams quickly and hard. The guy is having breakout performances but throughout the year was the refs go to guy whenever they needed a quick foul (one of the league leaders in fouls per minute I believe).

They can't allow a replacement to do what Serge has always done against us (be scared to drive, pump fake 100x for an open layup).

But as I said, the amount of 'man is this a sport or a rigged tv show' comments you could make through every Thunder playoff game means we need to blow this team out to stand any chance of beating them.

OKC loosing ibaka is certainly a plus for us but they've got the league MVP still strong and healthy so i'm not counting a god damn thing out. For all we know he could pull some jordan/kobe/magic/bird voodoo ****.

OKC are still a tough matchup for us. Monday needs to hurry the **** up!

SA needs to attack the rim like there's no tomorrow, especially Parker and Gino.

I think it's a win-win scenario for OKC. They have the perfect excuse now.

If they lose, they played without Ibaka. If they win, Durant proves why he is the MVP and Brooks beats Pop without a very important player.

I don't see OKC beating us, unless the refs take part in the game.

I'm preparing to see Durant on the FT line about 538 times a game because the league has a hard on for him. Hopefully we are allowed to play defense on him.

If Parker can get into the lane at will we have a very good chance of winning this.

But I think our biggest issue is going to be containing Durant. I wonder if Pop's is going to mimic what Doc did to him and send smaller defenders/go zone against him at times.

Who is that guy? Danny Green?

I have a sinking feeling its not going to matter who guards Durant. The league wants him to win soo badly. I'm wondering if Pop might go with the old Lebron strategy of let him get his 40 points and shut down everyone else.

I think the major key for us is to not get into close games or at least play well enough that one bad call or one possession late causes us a game because you know we are not getting any calls late in the game against this team.

I was thinking Mills. He's quick enough to keep pressure on Durant and aggressive enough to frustrate him.

Goody luck. Whoever wins this series advances to the finals. I see this series going to 7 games buy unsure who'll come out on top.

We'll be playing 5 vs 8 in this series so we have to be sharp and play smart. Hopefully kawhi can slow KD a bit.

I'll be interested to see if we come out attacking like we have been recently or if we let OKC dictate the game like we usually do. I think we need to attack the basket relentlessly in this series.

Great defense soo far, we aren't giving them the three and they are missing the shorter two's they are getting. Looks like this series will be the Kevin Durant free throw show though....

Is there a Spurs fan that doesn't despise Fisher?

I'm not fond of him but his successes against us are all our own fault. I'm really hating the officials giving Durant every advantage in the world though....

OMG. Danny green prayer!
