With OKC giving Golden State the business again last night and taking a commanding 3-1 series lead, I'm seeing several places across the web writing the post-mortem for the Warriors. Guess this series manifest the concerns many have of jump shooting teams making a deep playoff run. Perhaps Steph Curry is hurt more than he let's on as Bill Simmons suggesting on twitter; however, we can say for certainty they don't look like a 73 win team and are getting outclassed by Oklahoma City. Props to Long Island's own Billy Donovan, he did a fantastic job in the semis vs SA, and has done a brilliant job thus far vs Golden State. If he delivers a title in his first year as a NBA coach, his legacy will grow immensely.
Anyone else think Russell Westbrook took exception to Curry winning the MVP unanimously?
Over in the East, I personally still think the series will be a decisive Cleveland win 4-2. Look for LeBron to have one of his LeBron nights tonight where he dominates both ends of the floor while this game is still undecided. Cleveland has to be salivating for an OKC series; they matchup far better with the Thunder than they do GS.
Not seeing another NBA playoff thread, if someone would like to point it out, I'll delete this one.

I think Cleveland wins tonight, Toronto takes game 6 and then the raptors pull off the upset in game 7 (I can dream).
