2012 NBA Playoffs - (2) Thunder vs. (7) Mavs - (2-0 OKC)

I wonder if okc's practices are just them shooting 1000 FT's a day. Because thats really all they need to do to win games. They can be avg at everything else and win playoff games off stellar FT shooting. Its sucks that this is what the NBA has become

Breaking news, Jason Terry suffers lacerated nose after headbutting glass fire extinguisher case.

Both of those games could have easily gone either way, but sometimes that's the difference. I wouldn't be surprised at all at if this series is even heading back to OKC.

Even if it does end up being a short series though, its already been a good one.

Of course the mavs miss open 3s vs the thunder but last year made like 200 against everyone.

Blows my mind Durant gets 16 FTAs.

WOW what a game. Terry went hero mode... oh well...

This series could easily be 2-0 for Mavs. No surprise if it goes 7, with the series decided on a final shot... hopefully not by Terry trying to be in hero mode...

wow honestly terry 2 shots? id rather give VC/DIRk the shot even if they go 0-20 in the game. These guys have been known to hit the big shot.

making predictions after 2 games is weak.

I made this prediction before the series even started. Some of us made some playoff predictions on the Clippers board.

This series feels like it should be split at 1 game a piece.

Because of their talent/skill they are often able to dish it out, but it seems like 80% of the time, Durant will take some ill-advised shot or Westbrook will go around the pick and jack up a 20-footer.

Here we go.

Lol sorry.. is this brought up a lot? I havent been too active here

Yeah man, it's a pretty well known fact that the Thunder have no offense whatsoever outside of KD / RW ISOs. The only time we run some offense is when Harden touches the ball.

At this stage in his career, I agree.

On a positive note, Westbrook is showing signs of the clutch gene

ClayDavis · Post #1137 » by **ClayDavis** » Tue May 1, 2012 4:40 am

Okc last 8 points were from line. Can't contest while you stand on the line whole they go through their routine.

14-16 FTs, 5-17 FG, thats the new superstar in todays NBA. Its become league of who's the best FT shooter. Doesnt matter if you cant make a FG, as long as you can make FT's you can win playoff games, mvp, be a superstar, etc.

Unreal. The Durant call was Wade-esque. That is all.

Anyone find the tune on that Samsung commercial so... Hypnotizing?

Who wins this series and in how many?
