OKC will win the West
NYK will win the East
GO SPURS GO🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
jesuchrist, are ESPN anchors contractually obligated to ask the dumb "are the Lakers championship contenders" every single time? It makes you look dumb and bought because they are obviously not. They're old af and cannot defend to save their lives. Why ask such dumb questions?
If OKC wins tomorrow they will be like OKC has figured it out like these guys switch up so fast. Neither are my team tho
What's crazy is the Thunder and Spurs will meet three more times including tomorrow. That's five times this year. This is like the old days when division rivals would meet five or six times ala Bulls vs. Pistons or Cavs in the late 80s. There were less teams back then that division rivals met more times.
Skip Bayless is confused. Didn't he claim being a Spurs fan all those years since Iceman? Now he's an OKC fan? What team do you really root for, Skip? What does your heart tell you? What happened to "Go, Spurs, go?" Or how that Ray Allen shot broke your heart?
I think OKC and SA will go 7 games and SA seems ahead of schedule by at least a year. OKC have no answer for Wemby. SA beat OKC by 2 when Wemby barely played. When he only plays 23 minutes again coming off the bench, OKC still got annihilated thanks to Keldon, Barnes, Castle, and Vassell combining for 86. Wemby only had 12 points.
The biggest weakness to the Thunder is when they're cold from three, they can stay very cold. They're not this amazing 3-pt shooting team like the Warriors back in the day. And if their opponent is hitting their threes and playing very comparable defense against them, OKC has a hard time. Then if FTA is comparable and not lopsided favoring OKC, they will have a rough time.
If OKC takes out San Antonio this season, I say SA takes them out next season and several more years after that. San Antonio is OKC's successor the way it went from Philly to Boston to Detroit to Chicago back in the 80s and 90s. Or how Lakers and Spurs ruled the West from 1999-2010 with San Antonio winning the West again in 2013 and 2014.
San Antonio is legit, folks. Some of us thought OKC wasn't legit last year as that core was only in their second playoff appearance together. But they went all the way. We can't underestimate San Antonio this time around. We just need Wemby to stay healthy as he always got injured towards the end of his first two seasons.
1. Oklahoma City Thunder
2. New York Knicks
3. San Antonio Spurs
4. Denver Nuggets
5. Houston Rockets
The raptors made a trade for kawai in recent years and they won a title this analyst is trash 🗑️
Will the Knicks win a championship🤣🤣🤣.
Perk thinking you are a title contender almost definitely rules you out of the race
what is gianni’s doing just sitting out till he gets traded ??
Pistons would pop them… victor has a serious weakness in his game… honestly depends on who matches up with who
The spurs beat the nuggets without wemby
How?? And you cant even beat the knicks who were missing player's
Please get Perk off here. I gotta go get sports talk somewhere else.
The spurs piledrive the nuggets. Please
perkins is a jackass… Guy asks him about the spurs and he starts talking about the nuggets.
the Knicks are legit. But, don’t sleep in the Pistons.
Go Spurs!!
What about rockets
2:28 how do you travel on a fast break??? Ant
And the Hawks keep losing… LIFE ISNT FAIR
The Spurs are the only team who matchup perfectly, position for position, with OKC…AND REMEMBER, THE SPURS BEAT OKC TWICE WITH WEMBY COMING OFF THE BENCH AND ONLY PLAYING 20 MINUTES EACH GAME…so what do you think happens when Wemby is in the starting lineup again ? !!!
Why is Tim MacMahon joining us from Guantanamo Bay?
Denver cant even beat the spurs 😂😂😂😂
Big Booty Brunson
BTW, Spurs don’t do bandwagon fans. If you weren’t with us in the trenches, in our small market. GO F YRSELF. If you think you can bandwagon becoming a Spurs fan, you don’t understand. We aren’t a fandom, we are a Cult.
They cleaned up Perk fast. 5 min before this his face was in a birthday cake.
Knicks without JB seems half info, tell audience " Knicks w/ out JB & OG
