re: SA Spurs 2014 NBA Finals Thread (vs. MIA 0-0) [Game 1 Thu. @ 2000 CST]

I'm going with 5 min

Scott Brooks has said there will be no limitations on Ibaka's minutes.

Thats a load of BS from Brooks. Calf injuries are no joke, if he had a "legit" calf injury.

I'd say 20-25 minutes max, then more if Ibaka can take it.

If Brooks plays Ibaka 40+ tonight and the Thunder lose, he should be canned.

I don't know where the information disconnect occurred, but it's been very odd.

Not trying to accuse OKC of anything, but you don't see a guy go from "out for the season" to starting after 2 games this deep in the playoffs very often.

I hope Ibaka's not being pressured to play if he really is seriously injured--I also hope the Thunder staff didn't grossly overstate the injury in a lame attempt to psych out SA.

It'll all come out in the wash, eventually. I'm just ready to see what happens with this damn game

How does one go from out for the season to starting the fricking game in the matter of days?

This smells like panic button to me

is the Spurs being a 2 1/2 pt underdog a prank?

Yes. They should be a 20 pt underdog

I wonder if that's his kid.

It's getting out of control.
