    Does okc win tonight mean anything in the big picture?

    Just curious because all sbr sharps said okc would win game 3 and then spurs would win game 4. I know I know okc will be -1,5-2 for game 4 but really is okc in the same boat as the lakers where they look better but go down 3-1 after game 4?

    I hate overreacting but I think OKC has Parker figured out.

    We have a good shot at winning game four but I don't think it will matter.

    Having home court is huge. Spurs still in the drivers seat.

    I almost think we would have to win three in a row.

    It means that taking SA tonight was the square play. Game 4 will be a dog fight. Still see SA winning the series.

    have a hard time seeing okc win in san antonio game 5 or 7, i could see them holding serve though.

    Game isn't over.
    Doesn't look good for the spurs... But it IS the spurs.

    OKC need to win in 6 or they go to san antonio for gm 7; which, as we all know, will be very tough.

    OKC playing much smarter right now; no more westbrook 1on1 foolishness like games 1 and 2..

    Good post. Spurs can get hot and score in a hurry. OKC needs to keep up the defensive intensity.

    Common guys let's face it Spurs are the sharp side. Okc has no chance. Big deal one win.

    Spurs looked pretty outmatched tonight, but I expected that. Public is going to pound OKC in gm 4.

    ^^ Finals against the Pistons...this picture was used on broadcast after broadcast to describe a beaten and deflated team that just got blown out to the Pistons. Pop loves making his stars sit and watch blowouts. Thunder have a great shot with this crowd to win game 4...but I would be afraid to put all my chips on an emotion turning game against the master motivator Pop. I personally am laying off the next game.

    It's pretty crazy how big homecourt is in the NBA. Spurs look unstoppable at home in games 1 and 2. They go on the road and they look like a mix between the Bobcats and the Wizards.

    This does mean a lot in the big picture. We don't have to listen to that dumbass Bleek tonight!

    I feel like OKC has figured out some things. Win game 4, then it's a best of three.

    The Spurs played busch league tonight, Pop is going to be in their assess and they will adjust. A loss, especially like this should light a fire under the Spurs butts. OKC played great.

    OKC will tie this series up at 2-2. Seven years ago the Spurs took a 2-0 lead on the Sonics in the playoffs and the Sonics won the next 2 games at home to tie the series.

    For those of you who don't know, the Thunder used to be the Sonics

    Half the people that took the SPurs tonight probably didn't know that. Sharp post.
