Part of me wants OKC to win the series so the Curry MJ hype can cease.

But then I don't like the iso ball OKC plays..

Incredible finish by Iggy

How could any sane basketball fan argue DD > Klay? I don't need to see Klay in DD's role to know he'd be better....

I'd like OKC to win to see if OKC can finish them or if GSW has the mental fortitude to bounce back and win the series. Intriguing storylines no matter how it plays out.

Very impressive Klay there with that D on Westbrook and making those 3...Did Curry even score this Quarter??

fake run by gsw tbh I think OKC still wins this

curious to see if Klay will have any legs left at the end!

I was just about to type that OKC is really putting a scare to the Warriors after going up one point, but then the Warriors went on a 6-0 run in 30 SECONDS and have a good lead going into the half. Very exciting series. This is a good test for both teams.

Couple of bad possessions at the end there by OKC.

Is Ibaka not one of the softest bigs in the league? Bosh got unfairly called out for being 'soft' despite shouldering a HUGE load playing at center. What's Ibakas excuse given his statusque frame?

You could hide DD or Ross on him and he doesn't have the tenacity or skillset to exploit that type of matchup. If there is a big 3 in OKC it's Westbrook - KD - Adams and not Ibaka.

2nd chance points killes okc at the end, seemed like all the 50/50 balls went to gsww

Ive been beefing with ibaka for a while now. So soft and he never plays inside the paint anymore. Obsessed with 3s...

Just tuning in. Kinda surprised OKC is only down 8

Would've had the lead if it weren't for some bad possessions by Waiters and Westbrook to close out the half.

It's not a scheme issue either, I recall a play last game where I think he had Barnes him and the rest of the OKC wings were out on the perimeter hoping he'd take him down low and he instead opted to pass it out to a wing player and set a screen.

Inexcusable... it's one thing when Kanter and Adams are in the game, blah blah spacing. They went small and he had a forward on him and he still couldn't do anything with it.

lol having said that all, would he not be the perfect compliment to Jonas V here?

Russ has 5 3PA and no FTs.
What's he gonna do in the 2nd half.

Who will win?
