Haven't watched much of the Finals. (No, Goff. That doesn't make me racist.) Just nothing was appealing in the first 2 rounds.

But this should be a fun and competitive series. Now watch, it won't be and Golden State sweeps them.

Ibaka needs to stop shooting the outside shot.

Kevin Durant is turning the ball over too much. It seems like he has about 5 already.

Thunder have no shot at hanging with the Warriors

Has his game improved in the past 3 or 4 years? Westbrook has definitely gotten better.

He seems about the same to me. Westbrook has become much better. Westbrook has become a much better point guard the last couple of years.

Durant is about the same as he always was. I didn't see your Westbrook quote. I agree and you notice that the media doesn't ask Westbrook to defer to Durant anymore. They ate considered equals these days.

Westbrook leads the league in 4th quarter turnovers.

There is a lot of high caliber talent in this game. OKC has the talent to play with Golden State.

They might win one game, if Curry has an off night or something.

no way the NBA has the Finals be any thing other than LeBron vs Curry, the rematch. Heck, when Atlanta looked like they
might be able to hang with an injury-riddled Cavs team in last year's ECF, the refs waived off 3 straight Kyle Korver made 3's in the first game with bs moving screen calls. Took Korver out of his game and he never really recovered in that series. I think he got injured too, maybe?


But, yeah, refs gonna make sure the Finals features Warriors-Cavs, and not Toronto-OKC.

Correct. Lot of revisionist history going on here, so I'm gonna set the record straight. If I didn't, this stuff would never be said.

Golden State is better than OKC.

Lot of redundancy also.

It's tough to hear of another one after Magic.

OKC = deepest team in the NBA. I've seen Russell Westbrook carrying a book as he did the tunnel walk in one of his goofy get-ups.

He can play with his illness.

They will win more than one game. Thompson is going off tonight. Both Durant and Westbrook are playing terribly. This will be a competitive series before it's all said and done. Billy Donovan has gone small already. That's a big mistake. The lead increased as soon as he did that too.

that settles it: the series is going 7 games.

If Thompson wasn't going off the score of this game would be reversed.

Post subject:  Re: WCF: OKC Thunder vs GS Warriors

JBills and long time guy, why are you saying "Thompson is going off tonight" like it's some special occurrence? Andre Roberson scoring any points at all is a much bigger fluke than Klay going off for 30. Klay is pretty fucking good.

Post subject:  Re: WCF: OKC Thunder vs GS Warriors

I'm still rooting for OKC, despite the fact thatit would make LTG right.

Author:  Jbi11s [ Mon May 16, 2016 9:55 pm ]
Post subject:  Re: WCF: OKC Thunder vs GS Warriors

Thompson is great actually. I think if Curry or Thompson has an off night this series could go further than 5. I agree with Hussra tho. There is no way the NBA front office will allow anything other than GS vs. Cleveland.

They won't need to intervene.

Durant isn't playing all that well and they are only down 3. I hope their 4th quarter struggles are over.

It's a game! Of course the Warriors can score 15 in a row.

Post subject:  Re: WCF: OKC Thunder vs GS Warriors

This is by far the best team that they have faced during their 2 year run. G.S. looks like they are on tired legs too. Those 3's are way off.
