There's nothing I want more than for Golden State to lose this game, but after that first half, I'm pretty nervous.  The fact that the Warriors were only down 5 was a total win for them.

Durant has been terrible.  You can tell he came into this game thinking "I'm gonna win this game and take this team to the finals"...way too much hero ball.

This would be a devastating loss for OKC if it happens. They can't lose this game.

Cleveland is still going to win.  Too talented and healthy. I don't know who is a harder matchup.  A healthier OKC or a tired GS.  I think GS is the better team but probably better if OKC gets there.  I don't think Durant can beat lebron anyways. In the east if he bails and comes here he could cause some problems but still don't think getting Durant is the answer unless we are gettin Love.

Curry isn't right.   His knees are hurting or something.  GS isn't the same as last year with him playing like that.

people expecting Durant to carry  us to a title are mistaken too. He's real good but after this year he's going to be pretty burnt.

The problem is that it's hard to take the injury stuff seriously when he scores 40, including 17 in an overtime his first time game back from an injury.  He looks okay to me, he's just playing a really good team.

I agree, he looks fine to me.

Curry is fine. Okc just has too much size.  That and they have two of the top 3 players in the series.

Is draymond green a bit overrated at this point?

GSW could use David Lee in this game.

This is feeling more and more like the Warriors are gonna steal this game.  Thunder only 3-18 from beyond the arc...not doing themselves any favors from the free throw line either.

I don't know if I'd call him overrated, but I would say he's really freaking good for the role that he's in for that team.  He'll probably never leave Golden State, but I am curious how he'd do on another team in another system without the best shooter in the league to work with.

GS seems to be missing that extra magic they had last year to me.  I think OKC has this. It's tough to go back to back.  I don't think Curry looks the same.  He is missing that extra gear he had last year and his body language is not the same.

that was the difference between them being champions.  Why I'm in no hurry to trade for Durant either unless we are getting Love which is pretty far fetched. Why would cleveland give us Love so we can get Durant.

Durant and Westbrook are hitting right this year.  I don't think they can beat cleveland though.  GS if hitting right yes.

Coming back from -8 in the fourth in OKC is going to be quite difficult.
Isaiah, you were lightning in a bottle.

durant vs Lebron will be a fun one.  Classic superstar vs superstar finals.  Either Lebron's 3rd or Durants 1st will boost their place in history significantly.

Shame our Durant pipe dream is long gone.
