Looking to close series, but won't be easy

Post by Andrewu91 »

Today the OKC Thunder can clinch the Western Conference championship and make their first CSL Finals. After a crazy 145-137 overtime game yesterday, it's apparent that this series has been a roller coaster, that their GM would like to end, sooner rather than later.

The closing game of any playoff series isn't easy. Because the opposing team will throw all sorts of crazy lineups or play their guys 44-48 minutes just to survive. Asked gm about this and here's the response:

"I am expecting the Portland Trailblazers to go all out. Smart at center possibly. It's always possible they could just bench Horford and have an all guard lineup in this game. You just never know and we have to prepared for everything that will be thrown at us. I'm hoping for a victory but today's game will be the toughest game yet".

Let's see what the Blazers send at the Thunder...

This is tough for Portland, especially with Ingles out. Mirotic has been on fire but idk if that’s enough

Agree, very difficult game for Portland.
Hopefully they can get one more and keep the series interesting. OKC earned it but we want Entertainment :-)
