Paul George and Carmello can't beat you, just gotta contain Westbrook.
We have three soft games vs. Sac, Atl, and Dallas. Then we have the Spurs the next night after Dallas. Then after a night off the Warriors at their place. And after another night off Boston at home.
We need to beat the Spurs on that back-to-back to have confidence going into G.S. then bring it home for Boston, which is on ESPN. The Delta Center is going to rock again.

Bruh its the Vivent Solution Energy Home Center now... someone call Delta... I want the Delta Center back.
Too bad that our team's success will make it easier for Vivent to rip people off.

agreed. I would rather play pelicans, clippers, nuggets, trailblazers, t-wolves, or spurs than okc. They are the matchup i want the least out of western playoff teams (besides warriors and rockets)

This is a pretty good point though. Makes me feel better. Though i would say that PG could defend out wings pretty well and adams would be tough against gobert and westbrook is a nightmare. Plus the officials would be like another player on the court for the thunder.
Our defense should do well against their offense though so I do feel ok about this matchup.
No one really scares me badly in the west outside of a healthy warriors team.

Although we lost 3/4 against them, I view them the same as I viewed the Clippers last year. A matchup with them would be a really entertaining series.

I just want to stay out of the 7 and 8 spot for round one.

Portland is tough too because Lillard is maybe the only guard who can consistently finish around Rudy Gobert.

i see 4 realistic loses to finished the season 2 GSW games, the SA game and the Blazers game (depending on seeding though those last 2 games might be resting players games)

Portland doesn’t scare me in a playoff series. Dame is great but I think we could beat them. I think Ingles could give CJ the JJ Reddick night sweat nightmares. Ricky and DM are good enough to make Dame work and I believe in Quin... i thought the clips would beat us and Quin had a great plan and we came out on top. I think we will be better in the playoffs because I think the hyper focus on one opponent benefits the team with a smart coach.
OKC doesn’t scare me either. Minnesota with a healthy Butler is a tough matchup. We have a good chance at beating any team not named golden state and maybe Houston (I still need to see it from them in the playoffs).

I agree with this. I want to see those teams in round 2.
I would love to break up another team in OKC like we did with Clippers after beating them in the playoffs. Hell maybe we can break up Houston as well in round 2! Or the real accomplishment to break up the super team of all super teams GS!
I haven't even thought of that. It'd be epic. I'm really hoping for OKC now.
Yeah, when the jazz beat them in the first round there is no way pg13 sticks around.
Maybe he will pull a Durant and come to the team that beat him. He could be an okay 3rd/4th fiddle here if he is willing to take a pay cut.

Off days suck.
Looking ahead the teams in front and right behind us play eachother and the Rockets a ton in the coming days. Timberwolves are gonna be the team that’s hardest to pass I think, not a very tough schedule. If we can get past the Thunder or Pelicans I think we can stay ahead.
