Yeah I agree their time will come but with the way the Spurs are playing now I cannot say it will be this year. Celtics are good the problem is the Miami match-up. They just cannot keep up with the two best fast break players in the NBA. Not to mention those two players are two of the top 5 in the NBA.
Yeah, your right the Spurs have looked good all year, what with their 20 game streak. Then again I just want to see Thunder on top ,but I don't feel like it's going to be this year.
I am pleasantly surprised. I thought this was the game they'd lose and it'd be over but man they are putting up a fight. Btw Craig Sager's interview with Perkins' son is hilarious. You should check it out.
I don't see OKC losing it ,but Spurs are a damn good team. They'll get so many more calls in OKC for them and even less calls against them in OKC. I'm just saying at home they'll be favored in calling like ,when Westbrook hit Ginobili that would not have been called against Westbrook. In fact chances are the Spurs won't be allowed to play as physical as they are. Not saying it's a bad thing ,but it does get too physical at times. Perkins foul that took him out wouldn't have been called either in OKC just because it would take him out. I also want to point out that the Thunder at the beginning of this season would've broke down after Westbrook got called for the foul I mentioned ,but right now they made the right choice letting Harden take the ball down the court. Harden hit that three that helped out a lot. (It was that possession right? Correct me if I'm wrong.) Serge Ibaka had a good game felt I should mention that ,and I also must mention I think Harden=Westbrook ,and Durant in terms of importance on offense. He could score so much more if he chooses to. Westbrook is also getting better about sharing the ball.
Thats cuz okc is boss, james harden coming off the bench with the dagger 3? Sick as hell. 2012 nba champs for sure
He won't play tonight. He'll come in during game 6 either way. The only situation where he comes in later is if Miami wins tonight easily. IE: By 30 points with second string finishing it out.
Come on man.....Durant is better offensively and period. But Harden is gonna turn out AT LEAST like a Ginobili in his prime which is no bad feat at all.
Well, yeah ,but you see where I'm coming from right? Durant will have a time in the future where he stands on top I feel. Even if it takes 5 years ,or next year he will become good enough to be compared to Kobe ,and Lebron maybe better. He's only 23 if I'm right. Harden will surpass Ginobili ,but I'm not shitting on Ginobili. Also, I can see SAS taking them out still tbh. Tim Duncan needs to have great games though.
Yeah I see what you mean. Tbh more than anyone it's Parker who looks a little out of it recently. He's the key man imo because overall he's been their no.1 option. Sefolosha is doing a tremendous job on him so he deserves some of the credit. It isn't over but I mean to me the equation is simple. Whoever wins game 6 wins the series.
To me even if that happens it'll be SAS>OKC ,but to me as a talented young team OKC has the X factor to pull a win out in a less than favorable situation.
That was 6 days ago.... before that they didn't lose a game since April 11...
I don't know how they'll fare against a fully healthy Miami but I'm not convinced with the Heat's abilities to close out games regardless. Wade needs to pull his head out of his ass because LeBron doesn't look like he is getting the job done in crunch time. Honestly their best option in the 4th is Bosh and Spoelstra didn't even play him in the 4th of the last game.
