OKC doing a Lebron circa 2011.

if OKC loses this series, Durant better get ready for the media.

and Brandon Roy...

Also Harden just lost all hope of a max contract.

I've been thinking the same thing. He was receiving so much hype up until the Finals, and now his play has been horrendous. With that said, it wouldn't surprise me if some team (Toronto) offered him a huge contract purely based on what they saw on the smaller stages of the NBA.

This was Big Game on OKC's board......

Looks like that's not happening Big Game! I called Heat in 5, had a funny feeling they'd steal a game in OKC and they did. After the Heat won Game 2, I said the Thunder won't get back to OKC alive.

Didnt you have the heat last year too?

Well thoughts of Trevor Ariza coming back to the Lakers is pretty much a for sure no go now.

Pretty sure the Wizards are gonna try to hold onto him as he will bring some defensive intensity to a squad who really needs it.

John Wall
Jordan Crawford
Trevor Ariza
Blatch/Emeka Okofor
NENE

Not Bad.

P.S
Nice to see a Deep3CL and BigGame sighting in RGM. This is offseason is gonna be brutal.

Well maybe not too bad I guess with the Olympics.

This is the beginning of a potentially frustrating 3 year span in the NBA.

Seriously. Someone is praying Rashard Lewis the Supersonic is still in there.

Lebron will win his first title. Let the GOAT talk begin!

the Thunder will sign Allen and Lewis next season. add Desmond Mason so they have two players doing the shimmy freethrow.

After the Thunder gave up Game 2 at home, it was pretty much a wrap for them IMO heading to Miami for the next 3 games.

They got a pretty slim chance to pull out Game 5 and anything is possible,
but even if they do I see the Heat pulling out 1 road win in OKC with no problems.
Game 6 or 7 it wouldn't matter.

Lebron , Bosh, Spo and Ronny Turiaf will get their first ring.
Dwade and the Heat Organization will get their second.

Pat Riley will get his 7th. 8-)

Damn, the Nawlins Hornets F.O ain't playing around with their First Pick.

The NBA draft is next week, June 28th.

It's the year of Lebron. MVP plus probable finals MVP is simply domination.

He deserves it as well.
There's some Laker fans who don't want Lebron to get his ring because they think it'll hurt the debate with Kobe.
There's some Laker fans who don't care and would rather have the Heat win than the Celtics.

Only thing I had a problem with Lebron and the Heat was the " Decision" and the "Yes We Did" not1, not2,not3,not4,not5,not6,not7,not8,not9 celebration.

They paid the price for that as well as it smacked them right in their face as Dallas destroyed them in the Finals last year.

Other than that , leaving Cleveland for South Beach to play with his friends who so happen to be top ten in the NBA type players was the right move obviously.

Looks like RonRon is still trying to keep his game sharp this summer. 8-)

Metta has a Healthy Achilles now and it looks like he's planning on keeping it that way.
Just hopefully he doesn't smoke too much trees with the Game these next three months lol

I hate Lebron but dude is a beast. once he started to maximize his potential and started to focus on his offense his damn scary. yes you are a great passer but when he turns on the green light everything becomes so easy and natural.

If he's not getting piss tested, you know he's chain smoking. Ronny is awesome though.

I'm going to have to give up on this Miami game. I hate to see them win, and maybe it's the beer talking, but I'm sort of happy that the Thunder didn't win. Even if Miami bought their team, at least all 3 have been through some stuff. The Thunder just got drafted together and then BOOM NBA Finals. The only people I want to see win on that team are KD and Fish.

what's with the $ signs printed on those unis? :lol:

I'm with you Gek. Harden is annoying and will probably be penalized by whatever he's earning because of flopping next season and the more I watch Westbrook's awesomeness the more I agree with Magic. Fish is a pro and I want him to get his 6th.

Gek · Post #1480 » by **Gek** » Fri Jun 22, 2012 2:00 am

What does magic say about Westbrook?
