aka the Warriors coronation begins tomorrow. I dont see too many upsets in the first round, maybe the Pacers over the Raptors, because the 3, 4, 5, 6 and seeds are all very even.

News to note. I have been mentioning for months now that the ideal person to coach the TWolves is Thibs because he has the pieces of a great defensive team with Rubio/Towns/Dieng. If he could mold Lavine and Wiggins, its just the ideal spot, and rumors are he is their number 1 choice. It almost makes too much sense. If they can win a top 2 selection in the lottery and somehow get Simmons or Ingram..... watch out. I think that will be a good match for both parties involved.

He needs to control the offense not try to take over...

If they want to win they got to stop trying to match Thompson and curry with their 3 pointers and do what they do best and that is attack....stop settling..

What a game

This series has delivered all that we could ask for. So pumped we're getting a game 7. Great way to end Memorial Day weekend.

Yup agreed 100%. Wesbrook took too many 3s (he's been making them which has gotten them this far but that's not reliable). Played to foul too much tonight.

That's embarrassing.

Iguodala played fucking GREAT at the end.


Indeed. I'd say unsung hero, but he'll sure as shit be sung about in these parts.
I just read

That OKC had 0 assists in the 4th quarter.

Thanks dudes.
Also

With nearly 6 minutes left in 4th, GSW was down 7 and had drawn 0 fouls on OKC, while OKC was already in the bonus.

What are the odds of winning when in that situation? 20-1?

showed up. Durant and Westbrook couldn't even hang on to the fucking ball the last few minutes of the game. They couldn't even buy a bucket. Pathetic.


Maybe it's just me, but I never liked the word "pathetic" being bandied about so much when talking about close losses. Those guys are fucking superstars. You can't hit all the shots at the end of the game, and the stress in those moments has got to be something good most of us will never experience.

I'm happy that it's going 7 games, but the only two games that were exciting in the first 6 were tonight and game 1. Games 2-5 were brutal.

Game 5 was a good game, too. Games 2-4 were blowouts, but even they added drama to the series, because it looked like the champs were on the ropes, the first time they'd lost twice in a row all season.

I expect Game 7 will be close, too, especially if Scott Foster and/or Tony Brothers are reffing.

Very sorry santa. I should've used much more tempered language at an emotionally charged moment. An unforgivable lapse in self control.

Are you an OKC fan?

I guess I get it, but... I mean, even after disastrous, more objectively "pathetic" performances by Draymond Green in 3 or 4, I figure he's earned enough cache to not just dismiss him with that color. I reserve that treatment for the Harrison Barnes' of the world :)
