    This series should be over in OKC.

    This is one of the best games Golden State has played and still the Thunder came back every time. If this was a home game for OKC, it probably would have went the other way.

    If OKC plays like this at home, they will take the series

    This is a tough one for me. I'm rooting for the Cavs. I love LeBron James and truly think he's the best basketball player to ever live. I have been dying for him to win a championship in Cleveland. That town deserves a ring.

    I hate Golden State. Hate them beyond belief. Curry is probably the best shooter of all time but I hate his bitch ass. I think he's a piece of dog shit.

    I really enjoy watching OKC. I love Durant and Westbrook and I just thoroughly enjoy their team chemistry and think they deserve a championship as well.

    I would LOVE to see Cleveland beat Golden State in the finals, but I would also enjoy watching OKC beat them and watch a team who had the best record ever in the NBA, not even reach the NBA finals.

    A Cleveland OKC finals would be fun to watch but I don't want to root against OKC.

    Shit sucks lol

    Never thought we were going to close it out in 5... OKC has shown to be the better team but GS is still a great team, we were never going to beat them 3 times in a row.. even if we stole the first 2 in GS, they would have stolen one in OKC.

    Love how we played last night, love how the refs let both teams play last night..

    Only reason Bogus Bogut was effective first half was because Adams got in early foul trouble... didn't see Bogut do anything in the second half but miss an alley oop.

    Also, not sure why Kanter didn't play much.. guess it's because we were going small and Ibaka was playing well.

    Anyway, OKC in 6 as I expected. (and hope).

    We won't win a game 7 in Oakland, even though last night gave me some confidence that we can.

    LeBron isn't close to the best baller to ever live, lol. But I agree that Steph is overrated as fuck. He's good though, but meh. I'm all over the Thunder bandwagon, go Thunder!

    Do you have evidence to back that claim up? Because the evidence is stacking up to prove that he is close, or is, the best basketball player to ever live.

    Evidence lol. What kind of evidence would you like? LeBron couldn't lick the sweat off Michael Jordan's jockstrap. That's a start.

    evidence says LeBron never won a title in Cleveland and had to latch onto a stacked team to win

    If LeBron doesn't win it this year in Cleveland, he probably never will.

    FYI, this is his 9th season with the Cavs and he has won a total of two NBA Finals games.


    You cannot be the greatest player ever when to win rings you have to go running around looking for a stacked team to join. Period. The end.

    He's a very good player, but calling him the greatest ever is laughable.

    Jordan, Duncan, and Kobe, to name three semi-recent players, all had great success in strong conferences (compared to the historically weak East of LeBron's career. There has never been a greater imbalance between the conferences until LeBron came along) and never pulled the stunt of cherry-picking the best possible situation to win a title.

    I'm curious what the evidence is that you are referring to in his favor.

    Toronto is screwed.

    Biyombo hits a layup. Refs review it, claim it was a flagrant 1, take away the basket, gift two FTs to Love (hit both) and now Biyombo will miss Game 7 even if Toronto somehow wins tonight.

    Pretty bad call. Love was all over him and Biyombo pivoted to go to the basket and accidentally made contact.

    Toronto getting hosed, fans are furious. Announcers are angry too, especially JVG.

    Offensive foul called right after on Lowry as well, another questionable call.

    Have to say I was a bit disappointed we did not see Cavs vs Heat. Good series. Can't wait to see OKC vs GSW play out. Yisman hit it on the head with this one

    I'm nervous as all hell going into this game.

    If OKC blows it, and has to go to Oakland on Monday, I just can't see my guys pulling it out. I'm treating this game like a game 7.

    Of course it starts at 8, and I work at 930. I'll be watching it at work nearly non-stop until it's over. (I work alone.)

    I think it will end tonight, but this IS the 73-9 Warriors. It could go either way.
