  • GOT IT!!!
This is why I want a C's/Spurs Finals. C's would pack the paint and force SA into tough jumpers. SA best players aren't as good as OKCs either.

Westbrook in a Kobe-mode tonight, 5-19 from the field but keeps taking bad shots

Alex Kennedy: Kendrick Perkins was asked what's the difference between guarding Tim Duncan and Andrew Bynum? “Well, Duncan is smart.”

Bruce Arthur: Given their oh-so-similar games, it feels like James Harden should donate some of his beard to Manu Ginobili's bald spot.

Spurs have such incredible execution. I really want a Spurs vs Celtics finals. I really and truly do.

Terrific win for San Antonio.

Oklahoma just didn't have enough firepower to get it done with Westbrook and Harden having sub-par games. Need to rebound the ball better too. A mixed performance from them but showed enough to look in good shape heading forward.

A bit disappointed that Ibaka's minutes were so limited. I'd like to see him get a few more minutes out of N.Collison's playing time. Ibaka is too talented a player and too large a difference maker to be only getting 22 minutes.

Oklahoma should put Sefolosha on Parker. More size and length.

Give Westbrook the Danny Green matchup and let him save more of his energy for the offensive end.

9 points in four minutes from Durant to keep Oklahoma within distance.

The Thunder have started badly.

That dunk by Duncan was absolutely filthy.

Really impressed by San Antonio's first half effort.

Oklahoma need to step it up a gear. Both on the defensive and offensive end.

Spurs are basically cake-walking to the Finals
They are so lucky they didn't face the Lakers or Grizzlies
Two teams with alot of size to exploit against the Spurs

They are playing some great ball.  Really fun to watch.
