Extremely tough for me to break this game down.

the 2 deepest, most talented teams IMO

Who wins this series and how?

Clippers, Doc >>> Brooks

defensive game planning and in-game adjustments are the difference

while Brooks probably shortens his bench even more than he did in the 1st round

It should be an interesting series. Westbrook absolutely owns Chris Paul. Always has. Blake Griffin will get his points. And the Clippers have no answer for the MVP. So it's basically up to the sideshow players. For the Clippers to take the series Jamaal Crawford will probably have a great series. I think he could be the wildcard in all of this.

I think the Clippers are too deep for OKC. They'll be 100% reliant on Durant and Westbrook being on fire for at 4 least games. The Clippers will punish them on the boards.

I know it goes deeper than only 4 players, but I believe Durant & Westbrook are better than Griffin & Paul, so I go with the Thunder...

I think as long as okc can find a way to keep Jordan in check then okc will dominate this series.


(That means all of you should max out on the clippers series bets)

It has been a while since Kevin Durant has played in a playoff series with Westbrook and without Tony Allen guarding him.

Barnes is LACs best option on him and that isn't close to Allen, their second best option is probably similar to someone on this board doing it. Think LACs in for some trouble in that matchup but it will be a good series. LAC needs to dominate with the secondary players to have a good chance (Jordan, Redick, Crawford)

OKC is very reliant on Durant and Westbrook, if Clippers can slow one of them down it is going to be tough for OKC to keep up. Should be a high scoring series, over 211 looks good to me
