clutch performance from the bucks

this run is just going to make it that much more heart breaking when we blow it on a derek fisher buzzer-beater

[Garwilly]

Thunderstix (Thundersticks?) should not be allowed.

[Andy]

Ron Artest just chucked up one of the all-time "WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING????" shots.

[Guest]

Fisher sure was moving a lot to be the one getting fouled on that screen.

[Garwilly]

Cobs.

GOD DAMN [expletive] LAKERS

What is Van Gundy getting angry at Collison for? Ibaka's the one who let him just slide to the basket.

[imb]

worst of both worlds

 

thunder season over and i lose a -1.5 bet on LA

[NonProfitCow]

Easily could have been a foul called on whoever was guarding Durant on the inbound.

 

Damn good game though.

Yeah, I don't see how that's on anyone other than Ibaka. Gasol walked right in front of him to get that rebound and Ibaka didn't even try to get a body on him.

The Thunder have an extremely bright future ahead of them. They have a center piece, they just need to fill out the rest of their team. They're basically where the Magic were a few years ago when they were in the process of building a team around Howard. With the Lakers, Mavs, Suns, and Spurs all starting to get old, they could become the new force in the West if they play their cards right. I wonder if the Portland GM gets any sleep at night knowing what he could have had. Roy and Durant on the same team? Yikes.

Looking forward, I think the Lakers should be fine up until the Finals. I didn't like the OKC matchup (was hoping for Portland) and out of the other teams, was really only worried about Dallas and Denver. I think they'll take care of the Jazz fairly easily - I'm thinking five games - and then the winner of the Suns-Spurs. I want to say the Suns advance but it's foolish to underestimate what Popovich will get the Spurs to do.

 

The Finals, though, who knows.

They should have picked Steph Curry instead of James Harden. Then they would really have been a scary team going forward.

Greg Oden is going to be the Sam Bowie of that draft.

 

Sam Bowie....the guy PORTLAND drafted in front of Michael Jordan.

 

That team is so cursed you'd think sulley was a fan

[SouthSideRyan]

Ugh, the Lakers are a terrible matchup for the Jazz. Maybe if Okur was healthy they could put up a fight, but Gasol and Bynum are going to poo all over Milsap and whatever generic white guy gets cycled out there.

Aldridge is a nice player, but he's not worth going gaga over.

But..but he has a poker face.
