Westbrook and harden is saving durant butt these past few games. Durant should only focus on scoring when he tries to play lebron he turns it over. Harden on the other hand is a legit playmaker

That's like saying if I hit you with a fire extinguisher in the face and I get a foul call it's the same as you making contact as I drive to the basket.

Marion's defense on Durant has been phenomenal.

Like I said earlier, Ibake was not going to have another efficient game scoring 22+, but again OKC played well down the stretch and they got another close win.

I still have Mavs in 7, but Mavs must take Games 3 and 4.

Marion has been the second best player in this series behind Westbrook.

Ibaka didn't play well because he was in foul trouble the entire game. 39 minutes in the first game, 22 minutes in the second game. He was still the only OKC starter tonight with a positive +/-

As funny as it may be, OKC loses this game tonight if we don't have Fisher.

Also, Westbrook's defense so far has been EPIC. I wish he would put out as much effort as he does in the 4th all the time.

Also also, how the **** did OKC turn Dallas into a less ball movement team than OKC? OKC has out assisted Dallas in both games.

The 2012 NBA Finals will feature the Miami Heat vs the OKC Thunder in a best of 7 horse match from the free throw line. How exciting!

CousinOfDeath · Post #1234 » by **CousinOfDeath** » Tue May 1, 2012 6:23 am

The Thunder don't even make field goals. It's ridiculous.

Jajwanda · Post #1235 » by **Jajwanda** » Tue May 1, 2012 6:26 am

I'm wondering where Dallas can make some adjustments because right now they're just a small disadvantage away from getting a win OKC.

Dirk blew it with that three. That was the kill shot chance! What's with Durant? Man he is looking really really one dimensional right now... shoot shoot shoot. No post-game or go-to moves, anything of that sort.

I thought both games this year were exciting, especially the 98-93 Miami win @ Miami.

Miami OKC might have been the best regular season series in the NBA this year.

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....

Really is that the best you can do for a Dirk Flop? Lmao at the homer announcers he wasn't even touched.

There's a correlation between free-throw attempts and points in the paint. OKC was 10th in points in the paint and 2nd in free throw attempts. Dallas 25th in points in the paint and 26th in free throw attempts.

Can you really expect to not shoot less free throws than a team when you're getting less shot attempts at the rim?

And all this talk about a jumpshooting team... Dallas was frikkin 25th in points in the paint! Why has this not been brought up?

Um go look at the Box score

Points in the paint
Dallas-40
OKC-18

Who wins this series and in how many?
