Not very good because they’re not going to make it to the finals. It’s going to be Miami vs the Clippers now that Westbrook is out.

With Westbrook out i have the Spurs going to the championship. Chances still arent great but they are (in my opinion) the team with the best chance to do it other than OKC.
If it ends up miami/clippers for the championship, that series wont go over 5 games.

I don’t understand this sentiment at all.
Obviously they lack SA’s pedigree and experience, but LAC actually has the athletes to match up with MIA and their regular-season matchups over the last two years (ie. since CP arrived) reflect this.
There’s no doubt SA has an opportunity now that Westbrook is injured (even though he may come back before a possible SA OKC match-up) but like sneed and chillain have said, I wouldn’t count out the Clippers. I don’t think they can beat the Heat in a 7 game series but I think they can beat the Spurs, if nothing for more than the simple fact they want revenge for getting embarrassed by San Antonio last year.

Well, it was as epic as one of the sloppiest games I’ve ever seen could be. It’s great to see the Warriors once again in the midst of a possible upset in the first round, but I’ve become jaded by the two World Series titles the Giants won. 2007 was epic, but this year, as exciting as the first three games have been, it isn’t the same since the Warriors have no chance in the second round without Lee.
But their younger players who will be around for a while with this team are getting invaluable playoff experience, so maybe this is just a precursor to what could be one of the dominant teams in the Western Conference next year. They have a solid core with Curry, Thompson, Barnes and Bogut. WIth a good draft pick and perhaps a big trade or free agent signing to add some quality size and defense down low, they could really be on to something in the next couple years.
