“Spurs played terrible, OKC played a great game and yet Spurs still only lost by 1.”
This is the type of stuff that will make people wrongly bet the Spurs tonight. The Thunder did NOT play a great game in game 2:
Stars play well everywhere, but role players play better at home, especially in the playoffs. The Spurs will come out extremely focused off their terrible performance last game, but they aren’t winning in OKC tonight.
San Antonio never wins in OKC, tonight will be no different. Popovich had his team ready and better prepared in game 1 but it’s a different series now.
