San Antonio v GS
San Antonio v GS
Was switching back and forth from Gonzaga and this game. Wow. Spurs seemed to figure out how to match GS with size and D. Great game.

Two great teams, but the Warriors are still the best. The Spurs almost had to win tonight and they barely got it done. Curry will be ready the next time they meet.

I agree that the Warriors are better. But SA certainly highlighted their weaknesses tonight.That series will be great basketball if both teams are healthy.

It doesn't matter if you win by an inch or a mile... winning's winning. They're also 1-1 vs each other with the home team winning each time. Two more of these matchups to end the regular season.

Ultimately you're right, winning is winning. But each victory tells a story that can foreshadow what you see in the future. They may be a horse apiece so far this year, but the Warriors are better than an even bet (5-7) to win the NBA title, the Spurs are 3-1. Why do you think that is?

They've had the best record in basketball all season and are three games up on a historically good Spurs team. That goes to show what type of year they're having. They have every right to be favored at this point in the season. I just don't think the gap between the two teams is as big as I've seen some (not necessarily you) make it out to be. I'm begging -- begging -- to watch a WCF between these two teams. And because I believe coaching is magnified in the playoffs, and I've been burned by betting against the Spurs before, I'd still put money on San Antonio winning in a series against Golden State.

When it comes to that, remind me to make an internet bet with you.

Re: San Antonio v GS
In a 7 game playoff series I agree San Antonio could have the advantage. They could use their size to beat up on the Warriors and grind them down. It would be a great series and better than the finals. I hope we get it. For as great as the Warriors have been, I for some reason see them losing in the playoffs. I'm probably wrong, I usually am.

This will be the WCF, whether it's rigged or rightly earned. But I'd like to see OKC cause some bad calls from refs to make it happen for arguments sake.

Depends on health. Remember, one of the reasons GSW is so great is that they can play big or small. Going with their lineup has been great for spurts. But is it attainable for an entire series? Or even game? Not having Bogut and Ezeli was big last night. And Iguodala didn't player either.
The Warriors need Bogut to be healthy. And Ezeli is key, too. Is he done for the year?
