NBA Playoffs 2026 - If Anyone Cares

[Holliday 3000]

Depending on who comes out of the west, the Knicks will have their hands full. I expect seven games. Book it.

. To me San Antonio is the more dangerous for them. How do you get that free flowing offence going against the speed of a defense that is like playing against 7 buzzing bees. If they do play a full up tempo game I would expect Spurs to be fresher at the end. I'd expect the knicks to rely less on athleticism and try to slow things a bit.

It's pivotal game 5 tonight, @Larry Loungelizard . It's "pivotal".... Book it !

 

[ABOVE ZACK]

The Knicks are going to have a great chance at winning the NBA title, If the Spurs and Thunder series goes to seven games.

I've decided I like OKC. That Wemby mutant is unfair. It's like a tranny man beating girls in swimming races. And top knot boy is a whiny pussy.

Starting to look like game 2.
. Spurs lacking energy and shooting precision.
Nope, no enthusiasm. I am very disappointed.

Yeah, Thunder were on cruise control pretty much after halftime. Game 6 will be interesting.

. It's game day, but will it be the last gameday for the Spurs this season? Pivotal game 5 shook my confidence they might win the series and rid us of the OKC Floppers and their unseemly and disgraceful flopping ways.

Thunder Floppers are 3.5 pt favs.
I hope Spurs come out with some fire .

I want OKC to win because I don't like some of the players on the Spurs, so I will root for them if I chance upon the game whilst surfing all my streams.

 

[Larry Loungelizard]

Thunder will rumble tonight.

 

[Holliday 3000]

Great start by the Spurs...Sadly what does it mean? Anything?
. Stay tuned to find out.

 

[Larry Loungelizard]

OKC isn't ok. Game 7 on Saturday.

 

[Holliday 3000]

Game 7 BAAAAYBEEEEE !
. Spurs the better team.
The only worry, they haven't followed up these high energy beatdowns with any juice in the next game.

 

[Holliday 3000]

It's the gameday we all knew was coming when the WCCS started, muchachos and muchachettes.
. Spurs are 3.5 pt dogs. Personally if both teams bring their A game then I see them as the better team.
I think we will know if not by the end of the first quarter, then by mid 2nd if they have the juice or if the tank ain't full again after the game 6 beatdown they put on the Thunder.

 

[Larry Loungelizard]

I'm calling a Thunder boom by a squeaker. Book it.

 

[Admin.]

I’m thinking that this is looking like the Knicks year, but I’ll rooting for the Spurs tonight, win one for Pops guys.

What do you say, @Reggie_Essent . Spurs got the juice or will the tank go dry?
Up 7 after 1 Q.

It's a goodun - 56-53 Spurs at the half.
.OKC winning the offensive boards, Spurs winning the turnovers.

I want to see Vassell get going from deep though.
. He may be a key. Didn't shoot well in the first half.
Victor looks like he needs a cup-a-joe.
Come on, Victor - this is for all the marbles.

Spurs up 3 after 3. Just hanging on it feels like.

Ha Haha! I just watched top knot boy get taken down to the floor.

Good gamer, eh Holliday?

Castle's turret?
.Great game !

Spurs up 11 now at the 8 minute mark.

 

[Holliday 3000]

I CALLED IT !
. I WIN !!!

. It will be an interesting Championship series.
I'm a Knicks fan but I really like these Spurs so if they win I will not feel too too bad,
...but Go Knicks! anyway.

So you're already excusing your team losing, huh?

I get it. I felt that way when Indy beat my BEARS in the 2005 Superbowl. I couldn't really be too mad because I liked Peyton Manning getting his second ring.

 

[Larry Loungelizard]

Spurs in 6 for the big enchilada. Book it.

 

[Scooter]

Weren't the Knicks playing a Texas team the last time they were in the finals?

Age and experience vs youth in this one.
. Who knows how Knicks will come out of the gate after the long rest, or if the Spurs will be tired.
I know I don't see the Knicks scoring 140 pts and winning by 50.
Can they handle the relentless Spurs defensive pressure?
I'm not making excuses for them. I like both teams, but I'm a Knicks fan first.
I think the Knicks have their chance this year and have been at the top of their game in the playoffs - which was a surprise.
So wouldn't it be great if the Knicks won this year and the Spurs won next year.

Yup, the Spurs in 1999. This is a 27 year revenge match up.
