I can't stand Miami, but would rather see a OKC/Miami finals than OKC/Boston.

That was one of the funniest debates I've ever seen on realgm.


Yup, the Bucks were on the way up and the Thunder weren't all that and hadn't proven anything yet.

At least with OKC/MIA you would get to see Durant/LeBron while OKC destroyed them. Against Boston it's just going to be pure dominance.

I say we just forget that one ever existed. :D

Congrats to OKC. I was rooting for the Spurs but the Thunder are a great team and so much fun to watch. Durant is amazing.

Agreed. This would be the love/hate game of the century.

I'll give you credit. At least you have a sense of humor about it.

You win some and you lose some. Unfortunately, the losses where you get humiliated tend to stand out more than the others. That one was pure ugly. :D

That was back when I wanted to trade Bogut for Harden/Ibaka... and no one wanted to do it. :(

I think I would puke if I was a former Sonics fan, especially with Bennett up there.

Thunder and Packers are pretty much carbon copy franchises at this point.

Yeah, this has to be heartbreaking for former Sonics fans. I feel for them.

I remember those debates. God damn it. :( Sad to think that wasn't a pipedream at the time.

If Bosh was healthy, i think Miami could make it a competitive series, but OKC very likely would win it. I just think it would be fun to watch James and Durant guarding each other for 5-7 games. Plus, it should be exciting basketball whereas Boston would instead try it's hardest to ugly up the games and keep scores in the high 80's to 90's.

I want no part of the Heat in the Finals.

Go Celtics. :D
