lol yeah. the oden experiment i thought originally was to prep him for the inevitable game against indiana, but he's nothing either birdman or udonis cant do better. i'd only ever see him get minutes if either of them got injured.

5/9/2014 10:38:35 PM

imagine how good OKC could be if they had even a top-20 point guard

5/10/2014 1:29:48 AM

Its pretty clear they want the OKC Miami matchup.

5/10/2014 2:32:33 AM

Anyone out of the west except the spurs is fine with me. Good god they are so boring to watch

5/10/2014 11:34:48 AM

boring?

they execute their offense at a nearly-perfect level

it's kind of amazing to watch

5/10/2014 12:38:11 PM

yeah, i'll never understand why casual fans think the spurs are boring.

were the finals not great last year? they played well. the heat just had lebron and jesus shuttleworth to bail them out

It's not the spurs' fault that other teams suck at team half court basketball

5/10/2014 2:32:22 PM

Boring? It's like you haven't seen the spurs play since David Robinson retired. They have one of the most beautiful half court offenses you'll ever see.

5/10/2014 8:55:25 PM

I think it would be boring to see the Spurs in the Finals in the sense that it seems like they are in the Finals almost every year. Need some fresh blood.

5/10/2014 9:12:43 PM

Either Spurs or OKC. No new faces.

5/10/2014 9:26:19 PM

OKC is 'newer'

Also the Clippers and Blazers would be new

5/10/2014 9:31:14 PM

Wtf Miami? You should just go ahead and end this series and rest for the Pacers/Wizards.

5/10/2014 10:44:19 PM

Lebron disappeared, everyone else throwing up bricks, while the nets sharpshooting from outside. Complete breakdown on both ends of the court during the second half for miami

5/10/2014 10:46:16 PM

Nice of deron and km to show up.

5/11/2014 12:37:26 AM

Blazers fans have been enthusiastic despite being down by double digits most game

5/11/2014 12:59:45 AM

They haven't been to the 2nd in 14 yrs after defeated by kobe and shaq.

5/11/2014 9:15:46 AM

Lol you mean the refs. That game was fixed as was lal vs Sacramento. How many ft did la shoot like 45? They were down 14 in the 4th quarter. Abomination

5/11/2014 10:38:57 AM

Lob City? More like Lol City

5/11/2014 3:53:24 PM

I can't understand why Rivers is playing Big baby.

5/11/2014 3:55:01 PM

Clippers continue to get killed with defensive matchup while Danny Granger warms the bench.

5/11/2014 5:06:03 PM

Finally played granger instead of big baby in the 4th qtr and came back and won.

5/11/2014 6:19:34 PM

The series will go to game 7.

5/11/2014 7:06:41 PM

Looked like when the clips went to that small lineup it really messed with OKC.

You can't allow CP3 to guard KD like that. The only problem is that KD has a hole in his game in that he doesn't post up, so LA can get away with it. It will be really interesting to see the adjustments for game 5.

5/12/2014 7:14:22 AM

I wonder how many legit fans of OKC are driven mad by the "offense" that Scott Brooks coaches

it drives me crazy and I'm not even a fan of them. how many times do you have to watch Westbrook and Durant pass it back and forth with each other while the other 3 guys just stand there?

5/12/2014 2:41:52 PM

Jeremy Lamb is doing poorly in playoff.

5/12/2014 2:48:37 PM

The Thunder have 2 amazing offensive players and then a huge drop off to the ok Ibaka and then another huge drop off to pretty much everyone else. Still, you've got to do something on offense other than watch KD be amazing and watch Westbrook out athlete everyone thing to guard him.

5/12/2014 4:53:59 PM

Reggie Jackson was playing great in Westbrook's absence (and Lamb had some solid games as well). But they might only play well with extended playing time and not be able to provide the Jamal Crawford type punch that OKC needs.

5/12/2014 6:49:32 PM

The thing that Durant and Westbrook struggle with, that Lebron has, is complete trust in your teammates.

At the end of Heat games nobody is just standing around and watching a 2 man game like OKC, anybody can get the ball. That's Brooks' fault too. You can tell he's scared of Westbrook popping a gasket on him and doesn't have control of the team.

[Edited on May 12, 2014 at 8:33 PM. Reason : wrong thread]

5/12/2014 8:33:01 PM

its not that miami is not being fouled. its that the same things are not being called on the other end.

5/12/2014 9:51:26 PM

hahaha lol at the newest Chris Paul insurance commercial with Steph

5/12/2014 11:09:05 PM

Great game by lebron tonight but he had about 10 fouls

5/12/2014 11:43:19 PM

Robin Lopez looks like sideshow bob these days

5/12/2014 11:44:09 PM

If by "these days" you mean, since 2009 or so then yes, yes he does.

5/13/2014 12:07:08 AM

that joke is so old, he's the second NBA player to get that tag

5/13/2014 1:23:20 AM

yeah Varejao is probably jealous

5/13/2014 1:59:37 AM

ugliest series ever?

5/13/2014 8:43:31 PM

indiana is back to not trying. time for another fishing trip.

5/13/2014 8:49:04 PM

fix theories coming from indy fans starting to look more legit. they're saying the players are getting frustrated once they notice a game is fixed. NBA can't afford to let them get a rest on Miami because theres only so much the refs can do in a series.

5/13/2014 9:14:04 PM

I cant sit through a whole game but I could sit through 3 hours of charles barkley's analysis

5/13/2014 11:07:25 PM

doc rivers blew this game holy shit are you even there?

5/14/2014 12:24:39 AM

Paul is pretty pissed about that foul. Protect yo nuts.

5/14/2014 12:25:07 AM

The refs are giving okc the win. I love it

[Edited on May 14, 2014 at 12:27 AM. Reason : Okc]

5/14/2014 12:26:54 AM

i mean paul has played like an nc state point guard but the blame goes on doc rivers for not calling a timeout at any time while they were blowing the 13 point lead in the last few minutes.

5/14/2014 12:27:54 AM

Looking for the flop makeup call

5/14/2014 12:27:59 AM

lol

Tony Parker is still the best PG in the league

ibtface

5/14/2014 12:28:42 AM

Clippers got royally fucked

and I NEVER complain about refs

holy fuck what a screw job

5/14/2014 12:29:39 AM

video replay has got to go. they never get the calls right. this whole thing was a joke.

5/14/2014 12:29:41 AM

Refs gave them that game, and I like OKC. Clips got hosed. I hope Doc lights up the refs and earns a hefty fine.

5/14/2014 12:30:48 AM

as much as they got screwed the clippers had to do about 6 things horribly wrong in order to lose. the blame still goes on paul for all the crazy turnovers/foul and doc rivers for dribbling out the clock to 5 starting at 2:31
