  • After being completely turned off to the NBA for basically the past 10 years I'm giving these finals a shot.
    Strongly pulling for the Seattle Supersonics, I mean Thunder to win it all. So far 2 things really stick out...
    The officiating is driving me crazy. Is it me, or are there more whistles than ever before. At one point in the 2nd qtr I think I counted 8 possessions in a row with a foul. Let the babies play the damn game!!

    2nd--- this would be 10x more exciting if it actually was the Seattle Supersonics in the finals.

    How does that not get called? What a joke... he had his arm in there before he even jumped, then went down his entire body during the shot.

    Ugh... I dont know why Miami gets so many calls that no one else can get, even Kevin Durant who is only one of the top players in the league!

    7th game & $$$$$$$$$$ ......Stern

    Bill Simmons tweeted that OKC played their age and I agree. Too many mistakes. I hope that they'll sort it out for the next game, because a 3-1 deficit is too hard to overcome.

    81 what do I have to gloat about? LeBron, Bosh, and Battier are playing well but OKC should very well be up 3-0 at this point. They are the better team, and the Heat have been lucky to top them twice. Not sure they can do it two more times. Further, at any moment, LeBron can decide not to show up and Thunder followers and Heat haters (I'm convinced they are the same since no one should like the Thunder for what they did/are) will remind us how much he sucks at basketball.

    i see what your did there. :lol:

    lebron seems like a man possessed since game 6 vs. boston. he seems to have a different demeanor on the court. like he is actually trying to be great vs. his old flopping self.

    I think I would rather watch the weather channel for 3 hours, than have to watch these two teams play another game.

    Did anyone watch "The Dream Team" doc that was on NBA TV last week? Watched it for the first time today and loved it. Amazing inside stuff, like Jordan and Pippen not wanting Isiah Thomas on the team.

    Yea, it was a good Doc.

    I was GLAD that Isiah was left off the team.

    the only thing that is saving this tournament is the fact that two good teams are playing each other for the first time in months. if you don't like what's going on during the game what do you want?

    have you ever watched matrix revolutions? most people say they havent but at the end the ultimate baddie said he's been here before and someone one standing here and there and then he died to death. that's how i feel right now.

  • The team that plays harder and the coach that makes better decisions / adjustments will win again tonight.
    I am actually wondering why the media isnt CRUSHING Durant like they would be if Lebron was in foul trouble and shooting 65 (ish)% at the free throw line thru the first 3 games.
    Every good story needs a hero and a villain. I just like to root for the bad guy.

    This is ridiculous. Scott Brooks needs to just lose it on the refs and get a tech. This officiating is bullshit.
