Spurs Playbook: Postmortem on the Spurs/Thunder series

Donovan's adjustment to go to Kanter over Ibaka was the adjustment that changed the series. Was this the difference? Or did the Spurs just play a team with the two best players on the court.

The 2016 playoffs have been owned by three players, two of whom have inexplicably become underrated: LeBron James and Kevin Durant (Westbrook being the third). In a season rightfully dominated by the Warriors' quest for 72 and San Antonio's quest for perfection at home, LeBron and KD went under the radar. But during these playoffs the NBA's "former" top two players have challenged the notion that this is Steph's league with Kawhi not far behind.
