All the pressure on those young shoulders in OKC, different ballgame playing a slow a$$ team like the Spurs in a West finals and then against 3 of the best players on the planet with speed in an NBA Finals.

OKC bandwagoners are in for a shock, you'll see.

Strict rotation. Cole and JJ sound like they won't be playing.

So ready for this.

is Derek Fisher going to play at the end of games?

I think that will help us in terms of blowing people by. Can't leave him open though, but it helps us on our offensive end.

This guy man... has gone a long way on his conditioning ever since we first signed him. He looks like he's in the best shape of his career and he just turned 32 3 days ago.

Exactly, Spo is one dumb mofo if he can't see that. Hope he doesn't figure it out in typical Spo fashion after the 3rd quarter to put Joel in.

I don't know if my faith in the team has increased or maybe its another reason but i haven't been as nervous since game 6 vs boston.

We need some confidence heading into this game.

Maaaaaan I aint scurred, WE GOT DIS

Joel better be used.

If we're going with an 8-man rotation the guaranteed to play guys are:
LeBron, Wade, Bosh, Chalmers, Battier, Haslem. That's six right there.

Then you have to pick two out of Miller, Jones, Joel, and Cole.

I don't really care who the other guy is, but Joel better be one of them.

I was calm before game 6, pressure was lifted with game 5 loss allowing lebron to do what he did. I kinda feel the same tonight.
