if Harden comes to the Lakers I can expect him to become a scrub. no foul calls, he will be targeted by defenses and not a contract year anymore.

James Harden leaving the Thunder for the Lakers? You guys do realize that the Lakers are on the outisde looking in. They'll make the playoffs, but they are done getting past the 2nd round.

Aren't the Thunder facing some tough choices soon too with regard to the CBA?
They have Durant, Collison, and Perkins long term... But they have to do something about Westbrook and Harden and you they're most likely going to demand more money...
They're going to have a tough time contending without being over the cap.

They already have Westbrook signed long term, it's Harden and Ibaka who are up for big paydays. Re-signing Harden is a no brainer, re-signing Ibaka is where the problem lies. They may have to move Perkins to re-sign Ibaka.

Right you are... Hoopshype doesn't show Westbrooks extension.

I like the contrast in the styles of play for both conference finals.

BOS-MIA and SAS-OKC

most boring finals match-up for me would be BOS-OKC but MIA-SAS, SAS-BOS, OKC-MIA would be fun to watch.

Fisher going into 0.4 mode in San Antonio.

9 unexpected first quarter points.
