  1. Blazers in 7 .

    Also i can't believe you said that @5:10 on a 2 time European gold medalist, tournament MVP, and finals MVP at the age of 18+19 😂

  2. The best driver in the league against the best paint protector in the league. This match up is going to be huge and a lot of it will go down to how each teams’ supporting cast show up. Can’t wait.

  3. this game was all Dani and a bit grant all the rest were horrible so many lose balls holiday was below avg miss ton of shots and also lost !!!! at list 3 balls in the 4.. also camera was not good toady every one froze only one who played was Dani and he did that all year he is 10 level up on every one in his team that's a fact and 12 assists???? this is 50 point game without the assists he do that all year lucky for u he is not selfish i will be presumptuous but i think Dani is better than Lillard …sorry just take a look all his games from the second half of last year in Portland if he is selfish he can do easy 50 a game

  4. If Deni Avdia is so unstoppable, why didn't the Blazers win more than 42 games? It can't be just injuries because the Spurs faced injures to every one of their starters this season at one time or another (including Wemby for 15 games) and still won 62 games. Please explain.

  5. So if the blazers can play good and overcome all of their weaknesses and lean into their strengths which the Spurs are good at countering…they can win? Sounds about right.

  6. are you nuts? is that happened at Europe the Charlotte game would be characterized as scandalous and the press would ask for multiple games punishmend of the Le Melo !!! And you celebrate a bump that crippled the opposite team's star and you showing everyone that he is doing it systematically? (that is jungle fever , not a sport attitude)

  7. The Blazers are 29th in shooting. Not that good when Wemby has that inside locked up and these Spurs are loaded with athletic defending guards/forwards that will hound the perimeter.

  8. You guys must be looking for likes and subs lol. I think Deni is awesome also……that being said. Spurs in 5. They haven't seen anything like wemby this year
