Official 2011-2012 Playoff thread

Angry, charge call would have made It 2 pts. They come and knock down the first shot back to 6. Still, will live with ibaka beating us with jump shots. This has delivered on being the great series it should be.
 
Coach of the year has Manu and Parker guarding durant, note to
Pop, durant is going to score every possession with midgets guarding him!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Hate to say it, but Pop out coached today... waiting til halfway til the third to play Blair???

Lets see how OKC's role players play in SA
I was thinking that, maybe in the second half but in the first half he had ibaka and perkings shooting as opposed to durant so good coaching there, but when it counted he had his pants pulled down!! 2 more sleepless nights before next game.. And yes i will take it in the ass calling for a sweep!!
 
Amazing how 2 wins by the Thunder will change alot of predictors that the Spurs is an outright West champions. I picked the Spurs but this kind of Thunder wins make it a very interesting series.
 
I would have put Blair in the rotation instead of Bonner from the moment OKC pulled our early lead back. Bonner has had a horrible shooting series and gives us ZERO on defense. Play Jack on KD at all times as well

Yeah I agree, I liked Blair playing today. Bonner has struggled because they're doing a good job of rushing out to him and making him put it on the floor.

Schoolboy error d*cking about in the 4th and not having Jackson on Durant. Jack is not exactly shutting him down but he's doing the best out of the bunch by far.

Really the difference was Ibaka continuing to shoot that well all game. Normally guys can do it for a half and then they lose it, but he was incredible. Those jumpshots hurt especially. That and Durant down the stretch.

Pop definately needs to sort it out.

I thought Parker was being a bit too aggressive by trying to attack straight away, work the ball around and then when it comes back to him he should attack, then hopefully they'll catch the defense on the hop a bit.

Still, the Spurs did not play well and it seemed like they were getting flogged but they had some chances. Anyone that said it would be short series has no idea. For starters OKC are amazing at home. They feed ALOT of their crowd. It's amazing, you really have to take them out of it a bit.

I'm sticking with my 4-3 call. Although I'm hoping Spurs can win the next 2 obviously.

And Nick, an in form D.Rob would've destroyed today :)

Spurs did play well, ibaka going 11/11 was the difference. Manu 6 turnovers also killed us.
 
Just looking into the stats even more, perkins, ibaka and collison go 22/25 for 49 points. Being a spurs fan ill live with that. Yes durant was amazing but 22/25 from guys with not much offense will do it every day...
