Westbrook back in? Ibaka coming in?

OKC with no mercy.

OKC should be the favorite to win it all.

The only weakness they have is a lack of a low post scorer. Kind of similar to the Heat.

I see the Lakers as the only formidable threat to dethrone them. I envision OKC beating the Heat and Spurs though because they are just better versions of those teams.

They have a 3 headed monster on the perimeter kind of like Isiah, Dumars and the Microwave in the bad boy days, same with Durant , Westbrook and Harden.

Well this game is worthless!
Thunder in five since I'm assuming the Mavs have some championship pride!

I see the Thunder beating the Lakers in 5 then getting taken out in 5 by the Spurs.

The Spurs are just too smart for how the Thunder play. They can't out-talent them.

Doubt it, you can see in the Mavs faces that they can't compete. Those 2 losses in OKC hurt, especially losing Game 1.

At least would mean some more super intense games! This game 3 was SUCH a let down!

What, did the Dallas fans not watch the Clipps-Grizz game 1?
