Team's mindset going into round 2

[Portland2014]

Dame talked about it a little bit yesterday with Stephanie Ready, but what do you think our team mindset will be going into round 2?

What Dame said is what i felt in years past, you could sense that the whole team was just complacent about getting out of the 1st round.

This year i think they are more hungry but at the same time you can't underestimate the phisycal and mental aspect of this series, even thought it lasted only 5 games it was REALLY intense.

So, what do you guys think?

I have no doubt that Dame is still hungry. And I think they know that either possible opponent is beatable. Prior years' second-round matchups felt like we were lucky to be there, and that defeat in the next series was all but assured. This time, the situation is completely different. I don't think this team feels like they're underdogs against anyone.

Hope SA wins, which looks bleak atm. But hopefully that at least goes 7.

Huge mismatch advantage for them with Jokic, but if Dame balls out like this we can win.

 

[Strenuus]

I really want the spurs, but like Platy said this is the first 2nd round matchup where we have a chance against either team in quite awhile.

Dame has got it covered. No worries here!

 

[GhostOfPGA]

One game at a time mentality, don’t get too high or low. Every possession is important, just keep focus and we should be able to win games.

I think the mindset won't change one iota.

Feeling pretty good man

Dames got that look

Harkless out here like a Ninja

We’ve got guys who have hit big shots so far. Curry liable to go splash mode and dethrone his brother.

These guys have a championship in mind. Plenty of reason to stay hungry no matter who you play.

I’m gonna enjoy this ride no matter what happens

Sick, well put!

Dame just woke everybody up with that shot. Nobody is going to say no to playing with him after the end of this season. My Anthony Davis optimism is through the roof.

I’d be very open to Turner+Skal+2019 first for Aldridge at the draft, I think the reunion is ready to happen.

 

[Chris Craig]

The mindset is the same...win 4 games

I prefer the SA matchup but at any rate I want the Spurs and Nugs to beat the hell out of each other with double OT tech filled exhausting game 7 results.

This team through Lillard's leadership is a very cohesive unit where all the players get along like they are all best friends and Lillard will help them stay focused and understand what it takes to meet further goals.

 

[riverman]

Our rookies and sophmores are really lucky to have this type of leadership
