Yeah it's damn entertaining to watch.

I said before the playoffs though that I thought the Spurs would win it all and I'm not changing my mind now.

I hope the Spurs win it all so Duncan can get another. Been a fan of his since the days of Rusty Larue and co. at Wake Forest(anyone remember the ESPN commercials where Robert Goulet says "That kid's name ain't just a noun; its a verb" If i could find it, I would post it.)

The thing with the Spurs is that they led the league in scoring this season and still got called "boring", WTF? Maybe he just needs to have a special to announce his decision when he re-ups with the Spurs this summer.

Prediction, Spurs win 4-2. They are just too deep of a team and Pops is too good of a coach. It will be interesting to see who guards Durant. Leonard? Diaw?

I have watched OKC ever since Durant got there. Absolutely loved his approach to the game and his teams. They play like a bunch of college guys in the pros with their enthusiasm and I love it. Gotta admit I'm rooting hardcore for em since the Nuggets are done

I remember Rondo was deemed an "offensive liability" lasy year. His offense isn't great..but good enough, especially for a "true" pg.

Rondo stepped up big time. He was still 1/10 from 3 though, so I fall short of calling him good, at least as a jump shooter.

His ability to drive the lane can't be denied though.

Out of the teams left, I hope Boston wins it all. I'd like to see that Big 3 get another 'chip before their run is over.

I'd like OKC to win it. I picked them at the begininng of the season. I'm not a fan of Boston or SA, but I'd rather either of them win it over Miami for sure.

Durant just caught the ball at the 3 point line took two steps and finger rolled it in. Those are some crazy long strides

Okc got up 8 and then quit running their offense. It was all one on one.

Looks like the Spurs will take this one. I still think they'll lose the series because they're too old.

OKC can't keep the Spurs out of the paint. The old guys are schooling the younger this night.

Another thing, before this game Spurs played 8 games and had 22 days off. They are fresh and rested, doubt age will be any factor this series.

I love watching SA play. Manu is a favorite of mine.

This series will be over in 5. Spurs just excute better than OKC.

Westbrook and Durant have to be better if they want to have any chance in this series.

Spurs -5. Some pissed off gamblers after the last meaningless 20 seconds.

I'm going to gouge my eyes out if I have to watch SA/MIA
