I think Denver is going to play OKC 1st round; thats gonna be a tough series; GS is gonna play spurs in 1st round; What will be interesting is if LAC get the 5th seed or not; if they do; a 1st round series between Utah vs Houston:cool:; West should have good games in the 1st round....

OKC got that playoff grit and I'm hoping the Nuggets continue to beat them. Swept them boys and are like 8 out of 9 or something like that so we've been beating them in the regular season. But the playoffs is the real test. But I'm more worried about seeing Houston in that 2nd round. I just want WCF against whoever(Warriors DUH lol). Need the right matchups. The Jazz would be the worst first round matchup for the Nuggets. The Nuggets scare me when they lose focus and I don't want to see no damn 1st round exit like the last time they were in the playoffs as a 3 seed.

I think Denver OKC series would go at least 6; OKC would be a very tough out for anyone. Utah, man they will be tough for anyone to play; They were right there with Houston before Mitchell got hurt; I cant wait....

I'm pulling for Golden State, so I was hoping the Clippers would finish 8th. But that seems pretty unlikely now. I'd rather the Spurs as a second option-- They'll win regardless but I'm thinking Westbrook's deep hatred for Steph could make the match-up tougher for him than other first round possibilities. The last thing the Warriors need is a worn down Steph.

Steph wouldn't be on russ that much. Klay would do majority of that work. I don't think the 1st round opponent matters that much for GS....

Why do you think that is?

LOL, it was a bad faith insinuation. I actually have watched most of the competitive minutes in these games and they're very much playing from the outside, so it seems to be more playing style than the refs. Though they outdid the Nuggets in the paint and the refs probably were a bit stingy in that game.

What is this fuckery? These niggas trying to lose the 2nd seed by resting players? That will fuck them if they end up facing the Rockets in the 2nd round

It seems like they threw the game. But it also looks much more likely that Houston finishes #2 than #4, so that could easily prove to be a mistake.

It's even worse now.

In years past id concede that we shoot 3s everyone else goes to the rack but that's completely changed over the past 2 years
Everyone plays from the outside in
So when the warriors out rebound a team double them up in the paint they shoot the same # 3s as the warriors but 20 more fts that's a problem

And we can pretend it's a warriors issue but it's not theyre on favoritism fuck shit

Harden has spoken on it

Embid has

And just recently




So we can chuckle cause f the warriors

I'll do the same when they decide they don't like other squads on a particular night too
