Serge is the priority over Harden. They may want to sign another big in free agency as well and that may make Harden expendable. I'm OK with that.

Collison pretty much played the entire 1st quarter and contributed significantly with OKC scoring 33 points, then doesn't play again until the 4th?

My wife HATES the Miami Heat, so if they win the Championship I am going to ****'s Sporting Goods to buy the smallest Heat jersey that I can still fit in and wear it to bed butt naked every night for a whole month.

That's a cool pic.
It's done. There is no chance in hell OKC winning gm 5. I expect Bosh to finally have a big game, im talking 30 and 15.

If this series went to 7 games, he just might pass Dirk and become number 16 on the all-time playoff scoring list. And he's yet to celebrate his 28th birthday. I don't know if the they will win every time, but I am pretty confident that the Heat will make the finals about 4 out of the next 5 years. That's a lot of playoff games. There is no doubt that barring injury, LeBron will become NBA's all time leading playoff scorer and maybe have third most playoff assists by the time his career is over.

After 3 straight heart breaking losses, OKC's morale may be too crushed to win game 5, let alone 3 straight. I got Miami in game 5 by at least 10.

LeBron has definitely matured basketball wise this past year, he has been great this post season. That said while I like him more I have more dislike for Wade by an equal proportion

OKC is good enough to play with Miami, there are just not good enough to beat them. That's the bottom line. Game 4 served as reminder that the gap between the best player and 2nd best player is vast. Lebron can impact the game without dominating offensively and can make the game easier for others. At this point in his career, KD hasn't shown an ability to do so. What was truly disappointing was KD grabbing his first rebound of the game in the 4th quarter. 6'10 with a 7ft wing span you gotta give more than 3 boards in a game. LBJ basically had a triple double before the 3rd ended.
I think it's over. Miami role players are going now.

Wade
OKC needs Harden to step up... Not only that but they need to get their act together on the boards. 3's killed them last night too.
Their whole offense changed throughout the game as well... They were at their best in the 1st quarter when they were playing uptempo team ball... After that their offense (Besides Westbrook) went flat.

is this with or without the last 2 years of perkins deal.. because amnestying him is another move i see us making after next season (or whenever we start offering those guys contracts)
which would free up:
$8,477,437 and $9,147,342 for each season

We will remember many things about this series.
Lebron finally getting a clue and driving in on damn near every play.
The role players showing out. Especially with the threes
Harden with the massive disappearing act. Brooks sitting Westbrook for the long stretch in game 3.
Durant not being able to get open. Hit the gym boi.
Wade became the easiest player in the NBA to root against.
And yes... The refs playing their hearts out.
Yesterday's third quarter was an abomination. And I bet in the next few years the tide shifts and Durant "deserves" one and okc gets disturbing calls. This is stern's NBA. Entertainment.

That's with Perk.
And yeah, they can amnesty him and fall even further under the lux tax line.

Everyone respects Magic as one of the greatest players of all-time, but that comment there is proof enough that being an all-time great does not mean you know how to be an analyst. It's been obvious for some time now, that Russ has to play the way he does for OKC to win, people just "now realize" when he shoots 62%. People like Magic get too caught up in making some huge statement and soundbite in their analysis and you get nonsense like that. The criticism that he can get out of control and he struggles as a PG are completely warranted and fair.. but this whole "he takes too many shots" or "he needs to pull back the aggression" is ridiculous because he's always played like this and that's how OKC found success.Originally Posted by SHUGES
Magic did a complete 180 as well. "I now realize Russell Westbrook has to play this way for the Thunder to win. He was sensational. Go on Russ, you play your game and don't listen to Magic!"
... That was funny as hell at the time.
@ the salty Laker fans scrambling for new material.
I saw someone say it on Twitter that Westbrook's dad looks like he knows how to BBQ ribs perfectly, and that seemed strangely accurate.
