I have to give credit to Pierce for staying out there and giving congrats to Miami......I was not surprised to see KG already walking to the locker room with 10 seconds left, but was disappointed to see Rondo doing the same thing.

LBJ has made the same move as KG and Rondo.

So that's what it's like when LeBitch puts forth some effort in the playoffs.

As a Cavs fan I hadn't seen that before. Fucking quitter.

Fuck him. Go OKC. I hope they sweep them out the fucking door and RuPaul is laying on the floor crying. Again.

You guys should take solace in the fact Miami doesn't stand much of a chance vs OKC........

Not sure I agree with that...

On the walk-offs, Lebron got skewered for the same move...KG is being recognized as 'just that competitive'.

Im not a Lebron fan at all...but that is garbage

KG and Rondo walking off was a bitch move. Just as it was when Lebron did it.

Anyone that thinks Miami doesn't stand a chance against OKC is an idiot. In the case of WolverineMike, I'm quite confident he's just doing the whole reverse jinx thing. Can't be that dumb.

It's been said a couple times in this thread.. it's amazing how the Heat made so many people root for the Celtics. That's why they aren't getting skewered. :lol:

Doesn't stand a chance? May be a bit harsh. Highly unlikely that the Heat will win? Very likely.

IMO, this series is over in 6 games. The Thunder are the most complete NBA team I've seen in a looong time.

It is a GREAT matchup on paper with a healthy Chris Bosh. Both teams benefitted from facing off against aging teams in the conference finals. But they're both hungry, athletic, and talented. The Thunder is probably deeper and more cohesive, but Lebron is the best player in the series and the only one capable of dominating a game on both sides of the court.

The Thunder's biggest problem is Westbrook. He's fast and he can certainly shoot a lot better than Rondo, making it harder for Miami to pack in their defense. But he's also careless and selfish in the 4th quarter.

Biggest problem? I call Westbrook the X-factor against the Heat. Who defends him? Wade? :lol: Chalmers? :lol: There's so many mismatches that the Thunder will capitalize on. Durant and LeBron is going to be a wash, they're both going to score nearly the same amount of points the entire series. Who covers Harden?

I think the Thunder would've struggled more had their Finals opponent been the Celtics since they have solid matchups across the board, with the exception of the Celtics bench. The thing that hurt the Celtics this season was their bench.

The only guy that can guard Westbrook is Westbrook. And, unfortunately, he does a very good job on himself at the wrong times.
