The spurs just keep grinding and usually eventually grind you down and wear you out.

Healthy Clippers were up there with them too imo.
Yup it's a bitch but they deserve it for the 73 win record alone.
Rofl yeah, that front office is untouchable.
That was a great game, can't even be mad. Spurs are a great team to watch. I don't see how people say they are boring, they have some of the most watchable basketball of all time IMO. Gotta hope to get Game 4. If we lose this next one, it's going to end in 5 TBH. And jesus Westbrook, 31 on 31 shots? Sigh. I just hope this doesn't actually make Durant go to Wizards (or god forbid the Spurs)

I wonder if OKC fans see what the rest of us are seeing? How many times must this story play out? Westbrook hogs the ball while Durant stands around waiting for the ball? The dude shot almost twice as many shots as Durant. How is that possible? It's painfully obvious that the two cannot coexist.
I wonder how much of Kawhi's success is due to the Spurs coaching and the mentoring of 3 HOFers? Think Hayward would be a much better play had he been drafted by the Spurs? If Kawhi had been drafted by us, how good would we be?
I expect this series to go about 6 games. But in all honesty, I hope it ends in 5. I'm tired of watching Durant and Westbrook take turns going 1 on 5. Let the Spurs and Warriors duke it out.

I don't think KD minds if he's hot asf but when KD goes 10-18 and you're missing 21 of 31 shots kinda pathetic

This ain't even the first second or third time this has happened.
Every year the thunder end their season with one of these guys injured or with Westbrook shooting them out of the series. It's as automatic as SA predicted to be too old (yet shock everyone), LeBron losing in the finals, Toronto losing at home despite having 50 thousand fans packed outside their arena, Houston choking, and Mark Jackson acting like a Dbag.
Think OKC fans see this too? They need to decide who they're going to commit to. These two stars cannot work together.
If I'm Durant, I'm seriously thinking about joining the Spurs. LA, Durant, and Leonard would create a juggernaut for the next 3-5 years able to compete against GS and whatever team LeBron is on.
But that's just me. I'd love to compete for titles every year. Rather than bust my butt to win a bunch of games in the regular season only to flame out in the post season because my PG thinks he's Kobe Bryant.

Anyone else feeling a little left behind in these playoffs? The bottom tier playoff teams all made us look silly. Like Dallas or the Clippers B team. Yet, they've all been embarrassed in the playoffs. I watch Cleveland, SA, and GS and they look light years ahead of the other playoff teams.
Just how far behind are we? Sheesh. The way OKC, SA, GS, and Cle look right now, could we even keep it within 30?
We f****** lost to the lakers! we have so much work to do

The difference between GS, SA, OKC and Cle is that they play great all season but have another gear once the playoffs start....which is something the Raptors, Hawks, Celtics, Blazers, Mavs don't have
