Warriors sweep.

I feel bad for the Spurs as an organisation and as a team tbh. Here you have Popovich coaching his ass off with a very mediocre team, arguable this is one of his best coaching shifts - maybe even the best - he has ever put in. You have a 40 y/o Manu, a 37 y/o Gasol and so on and so on, putting their bodies on the line and then there's this soft ass clown who is supposed to be at the height of his powers, sitting out in a hotel room somewhere in New York whilst being cleared to play. **** him really.

Warriors sweep.

Zero chance

Spurs in 6

Reaching the Western playoffs without your best player and while continuing the Parker to Murray transition is a testament to Pop's greatness.

But, playing the Warriors, oh my..

To be honest i just hope for both series to finish quickly so Whoever play the W's on the next round will probably still have them Curry-less, so...

W's in 4

Doesn't matter if the series ends early, there is still the timing structure where the next series will begin as if all previous series' went to a game 7.

Spurs keeping the W's at two total wins & taking 4 out of 6 from the defending Champions...., with KD... in the first round? You don't really believe that.

Spurs winning at least two at Oracle and taking 4 out of 6 from the defending Champions...., with KD... in the first round? You don't really believe that.

If the Warriors win, to me it speaks more about the lack of Spurs talent at this point. Don't think anybody fears KD - he can go out there and drop 40 a game and they could still lose those games. Warriors need Curry. (Watch me be wrong and Quinn Cook averages 22ppg)

I do really believe the Spurs can win two times in Oracle, yes. So I'm sticking with my original prediction.

[Ghost1]

Why two?

You can steal 1 and protect your home!

[Wa88iors]

Ghost, I see my mathematical scenario error.. original post adjusted.

[Proctor]

Should be interesting to see if Pop sticks with defensive god Kyle Anderson or plays Rudy Gay in his place, or plays both at the same time.

Rudy Gay could easily be the x-factor in this series or the laughing stock...not sure which. His first time in the playoffs and I'll just be happy if he doesn't start chucking up crazy shots.
