NBA FINALS

need a new thread as this is the FINALS!!!

rooting for OKC. Durant is my type of guy. supposedly likes being in the small market. Is a gym rat. From all I've read he is a good guy. and he is one hell of a player.

Good luck to Sooner's boys!!!

im rooting for the thunder also since my celtics fell victom to old age.

my celtics as well. Loved them growing up and still do. Dennis Johnson, Cedric Maxwell, and Larry legend were may favorites.

big problem with the celtics was age and injury. Jeff Green who would have been a valuable contributor was injured all year.


Then Avery Bradley who gave them defense and hustle got injured during playoffs.
Bradley to try to guard someone would have helped alot.

Kevin Durant is the type of guy you have to root for. Seems humble. Down to earth. Respectful of others. and immense talent and desire to be great.

heat came out strong tonight. they better keep it up as thunder are going to make some runs at home tonight.

derek fisher.

He could no longer match up defensively for the lakers. Playing starting PG mins against top flight PGs was too much.

But as a guy who isn't playing heavy mins and isn't matched up against the other team's starting point guard too much, he is perfect.

war thunder. come on. lets go.

take this one on the road.

up 7 with 7:13 left in the 3rd. Need to make every possession count!!!

I'm being the contrarian that I am but I am rooting for the Heat. I want Lebron to get a title. If Harden and Westbrook can accept their roles, OKC will end up being a dynasty. If one or both of those guys demand big money and more shots, OKC will have to let them sign elsewhere.

Westbrook signed a longterm deal last year.

am I a Lebron hater? No. He is damn good. I like watching him play. At the same time if I have to choose, I would rather see Durant win.

I'm a Bulls fan but in this series I will be cheering the Thunder big time.

Damn where has this team been the last 2 games?

same team. Just with a tiny bit of desperation.

game 3 really screwed themselves in the 3rd when they fouled on 2 straight 3 pt shots and gve heat 6 free throws. lead went from 9 to 3 and it became a game that quickly.

Well Fisher didnt foul on the second three that call was another bullshit Heat flop. I will say this about this series so far there has been a shit ton of flopping.

LOL nothing is wrong with Wade. What a little bitch.

dwayne wade goes to the basket and throws his body all over the place. He almost intentionally loses control and flops all over looking for a foul.

if these teams played 100 games you would end up with 85 close games

Depends who is reffing. If you call it fair and stop the flops the Thunder would kill them.

The refs have been helping the Heat all series long.

Game 2 was the worst so far.

WTF was that call? Durant gets all ball and its a foul?

Damn the reffing is crazy

lebron and wade are getting calls going to the basket that aren't fouls.

Do the refs make that same mistake and blow the whistle when the thunder go to the basket and it isn't really a foul?

YES, but it doesn't seem to happen nearly as much.

van gundy said something interesting this week that was true and revealing.

He said when he coached Houston he made a mistake. he had steve francis that was a slashing, scoring PG. he did too much to make him a more traditional PG.

Westbrook. Do I think he shoots too much? I used to. But I have begun to think that he isn't going to become an old school PG that averages 15 pts and puts up more assists. He is going to score because his athleticism is great and he has a good pull up jumper to boot.

Let him be what he is.

Thunder down 2 with 5:15 left. Lebron shaken up.

come on

need every motherfucking free throw!

don't miss damn you.

LOL yeah Lebron tries to do that shoulder lean into durant and he moved and let him hit the floor. LOL

up 2. D UP!
