    Just saw that. I guess there's no easy roads in the West. First round should be fun though.

    Right, the Rockets should have tanked to the no. 8 seed, so CP would be really fresh.

    Portland rested their ENTIRE team in fear of Oklahoma City. They've already been beaten mentally.

    Could be back-to-back swept years for y'all.

    They don't have Nurkic. The Thunder have Steven Adams. This is more about how they are going to survive with no defense in the paint.

    The Blazers have a better backcourt than OKC they are going to get crushed in the paint.

    We know what's going to happen to the Rockets. Cp3 gets hurt. Harden scores a lot. They lose. Rinse and repeat.

    That's fine. OKC's defense is going to be much more difficult in the playoffs with more allowed physicality. And we know Lillard doesn't do very well with that.

    I don't know about that. Certain coaches are better at doubling him than others. Doc Rivers being one of the best. He has looked better prepared for that this year.

    The Blazers have nothing to lose. Nurkic went down and the expectations are 0 now. Westbrook on the other hand hasn't done a damn thing his entire career. OKC needs to win this series. What would this season be if OKC loses this series?

    Westbrook:

    Lose in the Finals with 2 MVP teammates.

    Blow a 3-1 lead to the Warriors.

    Lose every other year he's ever been in the playoffs.


    Lillard has played with one all-star in his entire career. Lillard lost 5 starting quality players and made the playoffs the next season. Lillard just led a team with no all-stars to the third seed.

    Russ has a Finals appearance and an MVP. Two things Lillard will likely never see in his career.

    Lillard didn't have Kevin Durant and James Harden on his team.

    Westbrook has underachieved his entire career.
