    thunder and nugets teams to beat in the west?

    it's sure looking that way. they've been running through teams for at least the past week.. seems like they're really getting hot the right time. I'll be watching both intently these last few weeks, both are underrated and undervalued in vegas' eyes.

    the thunder match up so well against the lakers its unreal. artest cant guard durant, no one on la's roster can keep up with westbrook and perkins will hold bynum down. no way in hell does LA want to have to play OKC this post season.

    Did you watch the young Thunder give the Lakers all they wanted in the playoffs last year?

    The Thunder took the Lakers to 6 games and lost game 6 on a Gasol tip in at the end of the game. I like the Thunder a lot more now that we have a presence inside with Perkins. We also have some playoff experience under our belt from last year.

    I still think the Thunder is a year a way but no one wants to face OKC in the playoffs.

    Yeap, if the NBA season lasted for a week and that week was this week, they would be the teams to beat. You're so right.

    of course I did dude I watch the lakers religiously. I remember that series so well and I have a couple of the games saved on my foxtel ** pay tv ** I had 57k on game 5 and 8k on game 2. Had 2k on game 1 into the magic vs the hawks. Lost 2k on game 3 won that back on mlb

    The thing is you troubled us but ultimately lost. And we've beat you 2 from 2 this season. Certainly I could see you pushing us again but that's all you could do. I do not think you could beat us in best of 7.

    b4 people say im full of shit for the 57k just look at some of my old posts this year. cbf defending myself to jealous smucks.

    The Blazers is probably the only team that has a good chance for a upset in the playoffs, but if the standings hold the Thunders and Nuggets match-up should be entertaining.

    okc is a machine. ibaka gets a lot of rebounds and blocks, and rebounds and blocks are everything. with all the great shooting, and how young and energetic everyone is, i think they definately could kick someone out this year.

    i like okc chance.. not so much with nuggets.. they might win 2 games in a series but they wont win a series against Lakers, Spurs or even Dallas..

    They are playing very well right now, but we'll see who is hot come playoff time. At any given time during the regular season, there are quite a few teams who at one point or another were the "team to beat"
