My dad hates the Warriors.  He calls it "Home Run Derby Basketball".

I find them fun to watch. In this series tho the Thunder have such a decided advantage of size it's all about the 3 ball.

OKC already looking 100x better than they did for the vast majority of Game 6, shots aren't really falling, but ball movement has been fantastic early on.
not really.  They still lack size.  If the circus shots don't fall, they will lose.

They still lack size?  Are we watching the same teams?  You know I'm talking about OKC right?  They're the best rebounding team in the league and have plenty of size...Durant, Adams, Ibaka, Kanter...plenty of size on that team.

  • That's turrible
Looks like Kevin Durant decided to play game 6 and the Slim Reaper showed up for Game 7.

 This is gonna be a slug fest and a half.

my mistake. I thought you were saying Golden State looked better.  Golden state looked outmatched for much of the last game and they still look outmatched.  If the circus shots don't fall golden state will lose.

All the pressure is on Golden State in this game, and early on that's how they've been playing.  They seem much more tight than OKC.  Thunder are playing nice and free.

Interested to see if/how the Thunder choke this one away. They should realize by now that if they revert to hero ball late in the game they'll blow another one.

OKC are missing ALOT of shots right at the rim, could come back to bite them.  Combined with missed free throws, they should be up by at least 15 right now

Horrible shot selection, turnovers, and no rebounding = the way the Warriors have lost three games this series, and the way they're currently playing..

I'm not sure that I trust either of these teams to beat Cleveland. OKC still has the choking gene, and Golden State just looks burnt out and disinterested this series.

Terrible shot by Westbrook...that was a 6 point swing.  He does that a lot, just like Marcus Smart, and it's maddening...where you worry more about getting contact that actually getting a good shot off.  And then when you don't get the call, that's what happens.

That's why GS is almost never truly out of a game.  They can put up points in a hurry.

I know I don't

LeBron is chopping at the bit to destroy these teams.
