Spurs vs OKC game 5

[waytoodeep03]

Real quiet in the Sports misc on this series.

Ive been waiting for this game since game 1 of the series.
Whoever wins this is winning the West and both teams should bring their A game and play hard. Right Rasheed?


I see 118-115 OKC in 2 OT

[dankydank]

last great game 5 SA played




OKCs been daring the role players to beat them and theyve failed on the road so far
Green/Splitter/Bonner/Diaw have to hit the shots theyre given and blair should get some playing time

if it comes to it i think jackson or neal could be the robert horry the team needs

[HairyScandinavian]

Damn these threads are getting earlier and earlier. There's already a Heat/Celtic thread for tomorrow LMAO.

Pop gives Blair more play time tonight. OKC plays hard, but falls by 5 in regulation.

edit: Westbrook gonna get his hopes up after the last two games and get really frustrated tonight, wouldn't be surprised to see him get a T.

I admire your unwavering support for your team...but...OKC will see the finals this year.

Good luck, MrDelusionalWatts.

I keed I keed, here's for a great series as we watch the Finals right now. I like OKC it's too bad the Spurs will eventually (they're taking long enough dammit) take them down.

May the best team win!

Danny Green and the rest of the bench players will step up their game because of the home crowd. I also expect Blair to get heavy minutes since he sparked the mini-run/comeback in game 4.

[HairyScandinavian]

One thing for sure, if Spurs can't take game 6 in OKC then game 7 is going to be HELL for both teams. I just hope everyone on both teams stays healthy so whomever comes out victorious can put up a good show in the Finals.

[AlexMorgan]

Okc - 103 , Spurs 101

Honestly OKC needs to win this tonight. Game 7 they wont even have a chance. Way too mental and too much pressure for the young team and young coach.

I hope you're right, but honestly a young talented team like that could roll in and go ape **** in a game 7, too unpredictable. Spurs need to take care of business at home and pull the upset in 6.

[GooBaaa]

I predict a blowout

[joelz54_99]

The is the Championship game. Who ever wins, wins it all.

[ECbrah]

Spurs got this. Willing to make a rep bet.

[KCBadBoy]

Spurs by 9

[Felixano]

I think Spurs win by double digits tonight, then drop game 6 in OKC. Game 7 is a toss up imo, but I think Spurs win that.

[gbkxbb]

I don't think this is must win for OKC... Game 6 is a lock, the Thunder will not lose at home in these playoffs... I think SA would have a big advantage in game 7, but this is not must win for OKC. It is without a doubt must win for SA, like I said, SA won't win in OKC...not happening...

After the adjustments Brooks made, it seems simple to me. OKC is a better team, and if both teams play their best, OKC wins. But the experiences, poise, and home court will help be the difference in SA possibly playing better.

I can't make a pick, I'm a OKC homer. Wouldn't be reasonable.

[lsiberian]

Very close game prepare your nails.

[NoochBrah]

pumped for yet another night of playoff basketball. dis gun be great.

[MrAWatts]

OKC have lost 6 straight in San Antonio. Some may see that as reassuring, I see it was they are due for a win there.







Prepare yourselves.

[jross2021]

Quiet because both teams seem to respect each other. I talked a lot of **** because I dislike the Mavs, and a lot more because the Lakers fans seem to think this is Kobe/Shaq days. I respect the Spurs and how good they are, and this is the first series i'm not confident in a victory. This series is just beginning imo.. I've been saying it's going 7 since day 1. Going to be a fun game 5/6/7.

[ImpressiveGainz]

I think home team wins every game in this series, Spurs win title, OKC wins back-to-back after Duncan retires.

[HairyScandinavian]

Damn why are these games so late? I'm ready to roll right now.

Wondering this myself, I have to wake up at 0515 so it's pretty hard for me to go past 10 pm and be able to function right the next day , I would think they would get better ratings if they started the game about 7pm

[wheynweed]

Lol Shaq already knows OKC is going to win it all.

[Hormel]

Anyone else hope that in both series that the road teams win game 5 so we can get rid of the "the series don't start till a road team wins" My dream scenario as a fan of the game would be in both series the road team wins game 5 and 6 , and we have two epic game 7's

Yeah I'm up early too. I can understand if teams in Pacific time zone are playing but both teams in Central zone should start at 7pm.
