If mavs lose they can point to missing wide open 3s as the culprit

When Westbrook wants to be he is the best defensive PG in the game.

So question for yall (especially those that watch the thunder a lot): I do like the Thunder, but do they have any kind of offense aside from ISOing one of the big 3 and letting them chuck a quick shot. 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.

Man...

A normal Lamar Odom could be such a huge difference in this series. Shame he couldn't get it together.

In that case, Fish is obviously the strongest 37 year old average sized male in the world

It's the strangest thing, he shoots like 85% in the first half of the regular season, then beasts post all-star through the playoffs. Last season and the year before he had streaks of 70+ free throws made. And only missed a handful over the whole playoff run.

He misses every now and then just to know what it feels like.

Not a flop, Fisher is a strong little bull dog. Just gave Dirk a nice shove rather than let him finish.

To think of it, Dirk is probably the only superstar that doesn't flop often or if at all. Find me some footage of Dirk flopping to prove me wrong. There's ridiculous footage of guys flopping against Dirk. Kirilenko, Wade, etc....
