Got ya. I was getting the idea that you were saying he is a ball hog. I agree his passing skills could improve.

No, my fault if I was ambiguous.


Congrats to OKC. I hope they win it all, they are a pretty likable team

I'd have never believed okc would win 4 straight after being down 0-2

I really can't see the east competing with okc. The NBA will do their best to lengthen the series though.

OKC is one of the most enjoyable teams I've watched play. Them vs Miami would be a great series.

It would be so much easier to root for the Thunder if they didn't pick up Fisher. I don't think I can actively root for a team that has him and Perkins on the roster. I'll just root against them less than Boston or Miami.

Happy to see a team like OKC who built the right way and didn't take any shortcuts advance to the NBA Finals.

Man, are they a fun team to watch. Our culture today is funny. A week ago the Spurs were so freakin' untouchable by common opinion, and now... end the season with four straight loses. On another note.. would this be the first time in history that two conference finals teams were down 0-2 and came back to win four in a row (I'll pencil in the Celtics)? Vegas has Miami as a 1.5pt favorite, wtf? I'm so tempted to drop mega bucks on that-- which usually means something fishy is up bc I'm not a great gambler.

I'm still not sold the Celtics can close out the Heat. It really depends on which LBJ/Wade combo shows up.

Now, I don't know if this was posted, but the Thunder were the first team since the Jazz in '98 not named the Spurs, Mavericks, or Lakers to win the Western Conference Finals And how do they do it?... by beating the Mavs, Lakers, and Spurs.

So many factors we could name, they just have to want it more. I severely have my doubts about them doing so. They don't want anything to do with the Thunder anyways.

Yeah....I've went back to it about 6 times. Durant's face was caught in perfect timing doing the "Wooooowl"
