Alright, so Spurs homers, does San Antonio come back and win this series or is this 2012 all over again?

I feel like game 5 is a must-win for both teams. OKC will have to play better than they did in games 3-4 if they wanna steal game 5. No way San Antonio gets blown out again.

No fricking clue

The homer in me says SA wins games 5 and 6, but I'm not confident in that to say the least.

I just wanna see SA play with some fricking pride and execution. If we do that and get beat, so be it.

And it's perfectly possible for us to get blown out again, even at home. Mavs did it to us the second game of the playoffs

I heart Ibaka:

If our role players step up like they did the first two games, we can swing momentum back.

Belinelli is out there not contributing at all. Green is turning the ball over left and right. Kawhi has been quiet. Parker played better but didn't facilitate consistent ball movement again.

That has to change for us in game 5.

If OKC can get 2 of the 3 games out of Westbrook that they've received in games 3-4, OKC won't lose.

But man he looked horrific in the first 2 games.

He's the X-factor.

Yup.

SA has to go back to getting balanced production across the board.

So can one of these teams sign Robert Horry to a 10 day contract?

With what I've seen these last two games, I am not optimistic at all.

when the thunder are playing at "full strength", they are a bad matchup for the spurs, BUT if anyone can figure them out, it's pop. this will be a 7 game series, imo. i hope to god, the thunder sign an outside shooter this offseason, if they do, the COULD win an NBA title....or 2, or 3

Not sure if they'll win 4 straight like a couple of years ago, but I do think OKC wins the series, even if it takes a game 7.

They just present a really big matchup problem for San Antonio(assuming Ibaka is playing)

Nice.

The FG% at the rim when Ibaka has played or been in the game vs not in the game is even more staggering than this, but I don't have the updated numbers after last night.

SA has got to stop being reactionary around the rim. Ibaka is a GREAT player, but too often the Spurs just take what is there instead of forcing the action into Ibaka's body. They almost wait for him and other shot blockers to establish prime defensive position before shooting or making a move, which OKC is only too happy to oblige, of course.

Need some more of the fight the bench brought in the 2nd half. This passive shite won't work against a team like OKC that flies to the ball regularly.

Too much indecision, too little execution the past two games for the Spurs.

Ibaka has certainly made an impact on the Spurs offense but SA has been atrocious on the other end of the court these last two games. Just really, really bad defense.
