NBA Season/Playoffs 2025-26

[Larry for 3]

This series is looking how I thought it would the last 2.  Not blow outs, but clear who the better team is.  The layoff affected OKC in game 1, but they were the better team in that one for the 2nd half until OT whene they ran out of gas.  OKC is just better than the Spurs.  I'm guessing Wemby has another monster game in him and the Spurs may pick up 1 more, but I can't see them winning this series at this point.

  Not if they are allowed to foul Wemby constantly like they?ve been doing. Reffed fairly I?d pick them to win.

Wemby was mauling Holmgren the entire first game, I didn't hear these complaints after that game.  Last game the total fouls were close and the foul shots were even.  Spurs shot significantly worse from the field and 3 and committed 4 more turnovers.  That was the difference.  Plus, the Thunder are simply better and deeper.  Spurs can only win by out shooting the Thunder and not turning it over a ton.  Game 2 Spurs shot well but had 21 turnovers to the Thunder's 10. Game 1, the Spurs won by getting to the line 10 more times.

In the series the Spurs have committed 4 less fouls and shot 3 more FT's. They have 23 more turnovers.  That is the biggest difference.

And that your asking for major production from Castle and Harper. These are young players. It?s a tall ask against the defending champs. Caruso is showing them how it?s done. And the Thunder has a lot of options

[Who]

NY look very good here. They are comfortable on and are cooking the Cavs on CLE's home floor.

[Who]

NYK did whatever they wanted in Q1.

No resistance from Cleveland.
