I don't know if it's subtraction or addition by subtraction. All I know is their spacing is better when Collision is in the game, and strangely enough I'm not sure they win the Clippers series if Collison gets a DNP. I do feel the Thunder can still win the series because the Spurs have never been able to get a handle on Westbrook and Jackson. Adams also can account for some of that lost rim protection. The biggest issue I see is depth lost because OKC bigs tend to get in foul trouble. The roster is there to still win the series no doubt. This may force Brooks to make some moves he should have made in the first place

I could just use the reeruned logic of KC Native. The Spurs never go to the Finals in even numbered years.
Anytime you have KD and Westbrook, it's not over until it's official. OKC is still a very talented team without Ibaka. I expect a more focused, spread OKC team and a great series between two heavyweights.
