The Favors Ingles pick and roll against Carmelo will be a monster.
Quin is such a better coach, the only way we lose is if Westbrook and George (and maybe Melo) just go nuts like Lillard did yesterday.

Not to mention we are playing at a much higher level than we were last year and we are healthy unlike last year in the playoffs. We literally had every starter with an injury in the playoffs. If you count food poisoning.
Also I'm not sure okc is better than the clippers last year. Stats don't back that up.
Jazz in 6.
OKC isn't the best 3 point shooting team around. I think that that will play into Utah's hands as they funnel every drive to Rudy and force the Thunder to take contested jumpers when they can't drive to the rim. The rebounding battle will be critical to the series. As long as the Jazz can keep Adams off of the glass and limit OKC to one shot per possession they should get plenty of stops because they are the best defense in the NBA. Westbrook will get his. No question. Just like CP3 and Blake did in the 1st round last year. But I think the Jazz will do a good job limiting everyone else. I expect the depth and defense of the Jazz to prevail.

The Clippers didn't choke. We were simply a better team. We're a better team than OKC too, we would have had a much better record than them if Rudy was healthy.

We split the first games, figure them out, then go for the sweep, closing them out on their floor.
PG looks at Quin Snyder after the final game and says "Sensei, do for me what you did for Joe ****ing Jingles" .
The flood of FAs looking to hitch their wagons to the Jazz gravy train begins.
Utah has its pick of the FA litter, and the Jazz dynasty officially begins.

I do understand their home court. I know that it's better than clippers. much better. Does that mean Jazz will never win a game in OKC? hell no. I still think Jazz will win the series.
also where did I say anything about home court? lol
Looks like some people already gave up on us before game 1. lmao
well some people also thought we are not gonna win 40 games this year. lol
