Never say never, but after the way they've stuck with the Tatum/Brown duo for all these years, it's pretty hard for me to imagine them finally breaking it up after a loss in which they didn't even play together.

Is this playoffs just OKC-Spurs, or do you see anyone else that can possibly win?

My rankings would probably be OKC >> San Antonio >>> everyone else, but the first round results provided a necessary reminder of how volatile these series can be based on injuries, three-point variance, etc. The Thunder clearly looked to me like the best team last year and the Pacers took them to seven games. I do have a hard time picturing the Lakers or Wolves winning a title, but I definitely wouldn't write off whichever team survives the East.

Thanks for the great questions today, guys! Enjoy the second round this week and we'll do this again next Monday.
