If the regular season games are any indication, this should be a tremendous series. OKC defense improved since those games and they also improved at closing out games.

Expecting a long series.

Warriors in 7

Again this is tough.

I thought the OKC bigs matched up well vs. the Spurs...

I kinda think the OKC bigs matchup really bad vs. the Warriors.

I guess the key thing is- who can dictate the style of play. Can the Warriors dictate a small style of play so Adams and Kanter are ineffective and have to be sent to the bench? or can the Thunder dictate to the Warriors and force them to go big to counter?...

i gotta go with the Warriors dictating to the Thunder. As much as I hate to say it I think this will be Warriors in 5 unless Curry's ankle flares up from the increased wear and tear a tough series will put on it.

when in doubt pick the team with the best player. OKC had the 2 best players in the previous series- and won.....GSW has the best player in this series....

Thunder can't compete, Thunder lost regular season games in the 4th quarter, Warriors are unbeatable at home, Durant is leaving OKC.

That should about cover it.

Warriors in six. Westbrook is going to cost the thunder at least one game.

I want a few technicals and a couple of "hold me back" altercations between Draymond and KD.


Don't disappoint me.

I agree. I could OKC using Durant at the 4 some to better play the P&R.

I think Kanter switching onto Curry would be a nightmare for OKC. (and not switching gives up the 3)
