The top seeded spurs led by Tony Parker will face the red hot Portland Trail Blazers led by upcoming superstar tandem Damian Lillard and LaMarcus Aldridge. I think that the Trail Blazers will come out on top in this series but i think it will be a hard fought 6 or 7 game series.

 

Starters

Spurs:

Tony Parker

Danny Green

Kawhi Leonard

Tim Duncan

Thiago Splitter

 

 

 

Trail Blazers:

Damian Lillard

Wesley Mathhews

Nicolas Batum

LaMarcus Aldridge

Robin Lopez

Portland getting blown out right now. The spurs are making them look like a jv squad. Hope Portland can figure it out or this series will be unwatchable and over in 4.

Pop is coaching circles around Stotts in this game, yes no one is surprised. :)

 

 

Yeah, I didn't think about it until now, but this round of coaches is more mismatched.  Pop >>>>>>>>>Stotts , Doc > Brooks and Spo >> KIdd.  The first round I think we saw better matchups all around.  Carlisle is an incredible coach so he and his team hung in there.  Same thing with Mark Jackson & Doc.

 

I really hope the Blazers pull if off though because I'm a huge Lillard fan.  His demeanor is cool as a cucumber.  They def have their work cut out for them.

I'm not calling a Blazers game 2 win or anything but I really think the series will still be very competitive.

      Coaches can't mentor, they coach, they are two entirely different things, and your coaches can also only do so many things at one time.  When they're running a drill, the vets are pulling the young guys aside after their reps and giving tips while waiting for the drill to reset. You do also realize that for the most part, players are only around the coaches in the film room and on the field, coaches aren't in the locker room other than just before the game and at half.  That's another place someone like Thielen shines, he's always been a pro's pro, he's going to take these young WRs under his wing and team them how you go about being an NFL player. That's not stuff coaches do, you NEED the vets for it and Thielen has embraced the role.  When you have a guy who made his career on doing the little things right, and he is willing to be that vet mentor to a group of young WRs in their 1st or 2nd year that you hope to be your future 1-4, then he's worth every penny we're giving him this year.

      Panthers Wideout Retreat - TMac Vlog

      By LinvilleGorge · Posted

      Why in Minnesota? That's bizarre. Not like we have a vet WR who played his college ball and the majority of his NFL ball in Minnesota that a few room temperature IQ Panthers fans want to poo on who was obviously brought in every bit as much to mentor young WRs as much as he was to play who has still managed to put up decent numbers in awful offenses in the twilight of his career. Anyone who thinks the Panthers haven't gotten everything out of Thielen that they signed up for shouldn't be taken seriously.
