Mates, perhaps it's a given in today's incessant 24/7 talking head news cycle that whatever #HOTSPORTZTAKE!!! of the day emerges, we'll be beaten over the head with it until becomes "common knowledge" to an extent.
Latest example: "OMGZZZ!!! IBAKA'S RETURN PUTS OKC IN THE DRIVERS SEAT!!! I MEAN WHEN THEY HAD HIM ALL SEASON THEY CLEARLY WERE THE BEST TEAM IN THE WEST AND EARNED THE NUMBER ONE SEED FOR A REASON!!!
Umm, no. The Spurs are the better team regardless of Serge Ibaka's status. Hence the number one seed, cruise control by March, and the fact that just 2 days ago these same media assholes were writing off OKC as toast. Anybody with a brain knew that OKC wasn't going to drop 2 at home and anybody with a brain knows that Game 4 is going to be a war. But this narrative that OKC is right where they want to be now, and that SAS had better cling to home court with every fiber in their old grizzled bones is complete and utter bullshit.
Spurs take a hard fought game and you'll have a feeling that they're going to take it though out much of the game tonight even though it will likely be close.
SAS by 7 in a "holy shit, Popovich is so much better than Brooks and how do we keep underrating Tony Parker so often?!?!" special.
Here's my plays.
