Really debating this Game 3. Spurs getting +2(or ML at +120). No way we'll see a repeat of the first 2 games, which were blowouts. But SA only has to win now by any margin. The NBA, and its refs, certainly want an extended series. The Thunder will get the calls at home. Good teams playing for their survival usually play with great intensity, and can win. Even Portland won a game once down 3-0 in the series.
We all can see how well the Spurs are playing, and play as a team better than OKC by far. But the variable here is whether OKC can play well enough to win a game here, or maybe game 4. So far, they have missed Ibaka. Perkins and Collison are contributing almost no offense. Both are foul prone. OKC looks like what everyone says about them- a 2 man team that wins and loses based on Durant and Westbrook scoring 30+ points each. Any opinions?
