Great job by San Antonio to keep fighting and clawing their way back into this.

I still like OKC to pull it out though.

One thing that makes OKC so dangerous is how good they are out of really bad sets. Westbrook, who I love watching, makes some very bad decisions (and let that be a lesson to you who denigrate Rondo---watching W'Brook show you just how much Rondo controls the game), Harden there with a horrible possession can still bury a killer 3. Their shooters are so good that even when they get out of their sets and have late shot-clock possessions with it all disorganized they still make shots.

I love watching a great basketball game without my heart jumping out of my chest.

And out of a timeout a horrible Spurs possession. Would have to have another look to see if it was poor execution/a bad play call or great D that stymied what The Spurs wanted to run. Looked like great D on Parker and Ginobli denying them the ball.

Its funny the same guy Charles Barkley said "You live by jumpers, you die by jumpers", but picked the Spurs to win this series

The Spurs offense have nothing to do with post play. I mean, Duncan is there, but he's like an afterthought and gets leftover points. When those 3 point shots don't fall, they look like a mediocre team. I think the Thunder is going to win the series because their big 3 is so potent

Durant, Westbrook, Harden >>>> Duncan, Ginobili, Parker

Coach Pop: "It's not like we're playing the Sisters of the Poor." - Gotta love the guy ... fifty percent of my favorite basketball quotes come from him alone. Wit, B-ball IQ and "no-apologies" directness make him one of the best ever, and one of the most colorful.

Harden was the guy they needed to turn Durant and Westbrook, et al, into a cohesive unit ... the cement that pulls OKC together. Heckuva future for that city.

Just imagine if OKC stayed in Seattle. Man the hype of a Boston Seattle matchup. Not good for my finances at all. What makes this doubly painful is that I moved from Wichita to Seattle but at least most people want the Celtics to win (Ray Allen).
