The Thunder

Calm down Spurs fans.

But you said they lost to a team with more talent. How can that be on the coach choking? Yes, he may be the best coach ever.

So coaching doesn't matter? Fine. Poppavich is irrelevant and these scrubs were going to lose regardless of Poppavich's [failed] game planning (with home court advantage).

Above you said the Spurs were non-talent yet they had the best record and won 20 in a row. And yet the coach is over-rated? LMAO

20 in a row is so over hyped and exaggerated. They beat how many teams that were tanking? They sent d-leaguers to Golden State and still won! Did Portland play a single starter against them? Phoenix with it's one player who had a terrible game? Cleveland? Sacramento? Golden State again? Yeah, they beat a whopping 3 good teams during that span after being able to rest their best players against the tankers. That's a HUGE advantage in a compressed schedule. So let's see, they beat LA at home, a given, LA on the road without Kobe Bryant, and Memphis, again, at home. Then beat a number 8 seed who wouldn't have been in the playoffs if it weren't for Rubio's injury. That's expected of the #1 seed, and we all said they would blow out the Jazz. They beat Clippers, and like I said, Cinderella run.

So let's all brag up that 20 win game steak when it ends by being blown up 4 in a row.

Its very dangerous to ignore reality.

Franklin ... what an idiot you are. All your posts are prejudiced by your emotional response. Ginobili had a throwback game ... lol. Sure he missed that three, but it was a bad shot and a bad choice by Pop. But as Barkley said, Ginobili was fantastic the last game; it's Parker and Duncan who have been subpar.

The Spurs have been playing great ball this season because of Pop and the way he built this team. The trouble is that a couple of the new guys -- Green and Neal -- have faltered, plus Duncan has not played as well as earlier and this has hurt the effectiveness of Bonner and Blair, who play off of him.

BS is right a lot more than he's wrong, so big deal, no one's perfect.

Agree.

That's why I have to give him ****. Never know when I'll get another chance.

I know what you are saying. Westbrook could beast if he just tweaked his game a little. Its gotta be hard for him though, to have to reign it in. The guy has crazy athleticism and skills. I think the coach just needs to do a better job teaching too.

Im sure the Thunder are going to play a lot better at home though.

Formula?

Give Harden ball, everbody follow his lead, and attack.

Banned Blues is ahead of his time.
