    We probably don't beat Miami nor do we beat the Thunder not sure how's it clear we win a title without facing the Spurs.

    The Blazers played the perfect opponent in Houston

    I'm not convinced the Blazers could beat OKC, LAC, MEM, GS in a playoff series

    We know they can't beat SA

    Houston really was the perfect team to face in the 1st round and I said that before the playoffs started

    Do you have some special power that enabled your prediction to become fact?

    All the Rockets games were too close for comfort even though Houston was team liming into the playoffs without any momentum. I think it wasn't a great match up for most of the Blazers aside from LA.

    The Warriors would have been an easy 5 game series IMHO. I think the Blazers likely lose to OKC, MEM and LAC in 6 or 7.

    I think the final regular season stranding turned out to be pretty accurate. SA proved they were the best team all year. Then OKC and the Clippers. The Rockets and Blazers (and Miami for that matter) tied and their series reflected that. I think we would have beaten Memphis.

    Are this year's Spurs the best team from the last 15 years? I think they're in serious contention for that title.

    Best in the last 20, easily. I can't think of a single team that could beat them in a 7 game series. Winning 62 I a super competitive conference while effectively playing your starters like it was the pre-season every night? That's flaunting how good you are.

    SA made some smart moves. They didn't trade their star for young talent, they traded a part time starter.
    George Hill for Kawhi Leonard........that is a good draft day move.
