The Warriors have lost just two games at home. Hard to bet against that.

Healthy? I think it would go 7. But I still think the Warriors would pull it out.


Remember their coach is still Brooks and Kerr is leaps and bounds better than him.

It's hard to win a championship shooting jump shots. You have to figure Westbrook is getting Curry or Thompson into foul trouble. Man what an awful matchup that is for GS.

OKC's lack of depth would lead me to believe they lose in 6

They're playing great right now. Doesn't mean they'll be playing that well in April.

How many times have we seen teams tear it up in the regular season then flame out early in the playoffs? OKC hasn't played their best basketball yet this season.

I agree. The supporting cast got better in GS and regressed in OKC. OKC needs to make a move if they want to make the playoffs and compete. If only they had the first round pick they flushed down the toilet for Dion Waiters to deal.

GS...the Thunder have a "okie's calf" chance.

Man oh man that'd be a fun series.

Think I'd have to take OKC in 7.

I don't think it's that terrible a matchup for the Warriors. Yeah, Westbrook is a matchup nightmare but name me one team that he isn't a matchup nightmare for. As far as Durant goes, the Warriors have some long, rangey, athletic 3s to throw at Durant in Harrison Barnes and Iggy and an absolute bulldog in Dray Green. Plus an excellent rim protector on the back end if Bogut is healthy.

The warriors play some of the best team defense in the league and Scott Brooks and OKC run probably the most unimaginative offense this side of Monty Williams.

So, Westbrook is unguardable--we know that. So is Curry. Who's gonna guard all of the Warriors' weapons? OKC can win because they will have Durant and Westbrook so they always have a chance. But I'm not seeing why they're an exceptionally bad matchup for the Warriors. They're a bad matchup for anybody. They will just be underseeded because of injuries but the West is filthy loaded anyway.
