2017-18 NBA Season

I think the Warriors will have a down year due to Curry being traumatized from getting himself disinvited to the WH. This will give another West team a crack at the finals... I think that "other team will be Houston or San Antonio.

Do you not think Houston or San Antonio can get it done?

No. Harden just isnt a top end playoff performer and SA has a serious talent deficit in comparison to GS

Chris Paul will make Houston a contender and without Curry in top form and the Pachulia rule in place to protect Kawhi, the Spurs will be fine vs GS.

How do you figure Curry wont be in top form?

He's distraught from his WH disinvite... dude is weak. You always underestimate the Spurs. I bet they end up with more wins than the Celtics.

Who says Im underestimating them. They are a championship caliber team. They just dont have the horses to beat the Warriors in a playoff series. If you think White House thing will bena factor at all in Curry's play, then you are really, really, REALLY grasping for chink in the armor.

Im sure they will.

Also if you are looking to enter a pissing contest with a 13 year old, then find a 13 year old and hydrate. As for me I must decline

Okay then, we'll just have to agree to disagree about Curry and how they match up with the Mighty Spurs.

LOL Okay, you won't defend the Celtics. I bet the Spurs win more games than the Rockets and the West finals is between SA and GS again.

I honestly don't know how you think it will make a difference

Im a realist. Celtics are returning all of 4 players from last years squad. There are going to be some growing pains so I can see them just getting to 50 wins. Im not going to thump my chest and pretend they are the best team in the NBA just because they are my favorite team.

Houston wont get past GS, SA, or even OKC in the playoffs because Harden is soft as baby ****

The rules have been fixed and now we can return to that beat down that the Spurs were putting on GS in Game 1 of the WCF before Steve Kerr sent his hitman out for Kawhi... or have you conveniently forgot all about that whipping? Spurs won the regular season series with GS last year and they have no fear of them.

Oh C'mon dude... you can at least brag about the Celtics being the favorite in the East... they are. I don't know what to expect from Houston but they will beat OKC. The Spurs are pissed and motivated for a long hard fought season and expect to battle for the West title against GS... if Curry can get himself together.

Oh lord this again lol. Everyone except the most ardent Spurs know they would have been lucky to go 6 with GS even with a healthy Leonard

Favorite in the East accounts for little. But 2017-18 is hardly the Celtics end game. They are building for a window over the next 10 years, not 2

There is no evidence of that what so ever. GS lost 2 of 3 games to the Spurs in the regular season last year.

Who cares about the regular season. Regular season becomes irrelevant once the playoffs role around. Completely different game. Completely different game. The Spurs are simply too to old and slow to match up with the Warriors in a 7 game playoff series

I've been hearing that same line of BS for over a decade but the Spurs are contenders every year. They have the best coach and player in the league today. Never count them out.
