Analysis 2026 First Round Opponent Watch

[Robz4000]

Castle vs Avdija will be fun.

If we stay healthy I’m expecting a sweep or a gentleman’s sweep. We’ll do to Deni what we did to Cade and the rest of their team can’t really initiate offense as well. They don’t shoot the 3 particularly well. Their offensive rebounds will sometimes cause trouble but we’re a good defensive rebounding team. On offense I expect Wemby to come out with his hair on fire and dominate most of these games.

Let’s gooooooo!!!
No dirty rat Dillon brooks!
Thank you Deni Avdija!

 

[mudyez]

Yeah, hope we don't regret it, but Dillon vs OKC might be fun.

Will be on a plane over the pacific during Game 6... so lets just make sure to end it in 4.

Spurs losing to the Guests (assuming no significant injuries) would be shocking enough to where the FO would make some legitimate moves imo.

Thought you were saying you've never had internet issues flying Hawaiian tbh?

I’m not wishing anyone getting hurt, just a little banged up

I’m more worried about issues related to the geolocation and my feed being blocked over international waters… I’ll probably get a 1 month subscription to a VPN beforehand tho

I’m not underestimating the blazers or their star, or the legend Tiago for that matter. I just know that the Suns are dirty and I want a clean matchup.

I actually feel like Portland has the superior talent compared with Phoenix, but they are less experienced (while Holiday is much) and they overall feel like a better matchup for us.

Go Spurs Go!

Portland's bread and butter is Deni attacking the rim. Wemby should be able to wall him. Clingan is a big dude but not a good scorer. He can shoot it ok from outside though

If the Spurs force the Guests into Clingan 3 pointers and he hits them you tip your cap imo.

 

[brazil]

Blazers it is. Wish granted But be careful what you wish for

We don't have to play to brooks bitch.. big win for us tonight in all cases. Also fuck the suns

 

[couchman]

I’m actually super pumped about this matchup. If we stay healthy there is no way they beat us and that will give our young squad experience and momentum going into the second round

Yeah, considering we could have drawn Clippers or Suns, both of whom might have been problems, this is a great way to ease into the first playoffs. No offense to the Blazers. I like them, but I don't think they have the firepower.

 

[Spurminator]

Best case scenario matchup, IMO. Our Achilles Heel is facing good 3-point shooting and they're the 3rd worst in the league. Outside of Jrue they don't really have anyone who has a lot more Playoff experience than our guys.

Hopefully we can make quick work of them and rest for Round 2.
