    d--- Wade, I know @Big Mitch is happy about that outing. The ball getting stuck on the rim was too much lol.

    Curry just came in, let's see if he can save GS from getting cooked.

    Holy s---, went to the game tonight and what a game it was.

    Curry 17 points in OT, most ever in an OT. He hit some amazing shots.

    Looks like GS is moving on. Portland has nothing to be ashamed of, they got a really bright future.

    Curry is incredible, no idea why many fans don't appreciate his game. He's got that clutch factor the true elite players gotta have too.

    well, this game is an unexpected let-down. no doubt the thunder defense tightened up, but the spurs have had many open looks and just haven't been able to make the shots.

    i can't picture tim duncan playing beyond this season. he just doesn't have it anymore. not just in this game, but the entire series. its hard to watch him playing at this level.

    This has been a great playoffs season so far. I've been quite busy so I haven't been following much of it unfortunately, but wow.... Well done Thunder, after game 1 I thought they were screwed.

    I know everyone wanted Spurs/Warriors but honestly Warriors/Thunder should be more exciting at this point anyways, 2 fast paced teams that are fun to watch with 3 star players who can make some spectacular plays.

    However I have to wonder how much OKC can really make it a series, they get over 75% of their scoring from KD and Westbrook and that's gonna wear them down at some point if it hasn't already. The Warriors are a much deeper and more talented team overall. Gotta think KD and Westbrook are very hungry for a ring though, they're sick of getting close and not finishing the job..Should be a fun series, I hope OKC can at least take it to game 6.

    agreed.

    i can't picture the thunder winning, either. that said, i didn't see the thunder beating a spurs team that had like 65 some regular season wins. so who knows what'll happen.

    westbrook vs. curry should be a lot to fun to watch!

    Heat have taken it into game 7! Caught the final quarter, Raptors almost fought back but conceded a few stupid errors. CoJo missing that lay up... :lmaooo:

    Game 7's are always fun. @Big Mitch, assuming the Heat advance tomorrow.....what do you think of their chances against the Cavs?

    I hate to bet against LeBron, because every time a team looks good against him in the regular season, they still win the series. If I'm being realistic/honest, I think we could win a few games and push it to 6, maybe 7 if we get Whiteside back and Joe Johnson gets on his A game again.

    Like you mentioned tho. Gotta worry about winning game 7 tomorrow first. Gonna be a tough game.

    I would love to see the heat move on and play the cavs and win but miami has a hard time scoring sometimes. I just don't think they have the offense to put the cavs away in 7 games, atleast not without bosh and whiteside healthy.

    sorry about the game @Big Mitch

    regardless of who won this series (raps vs. heat), i don't think either would stand a chance against the cavs. i think cleveland is playing better than people realize. i think they'll beat the raptors in 5 games. and yeah, i know the cavs beat detroit and atlanta and those teams aren't that good, but still.....i think things are starting to click more-so than they did in the regular season. i could see the eastern conference finals going to 6 games MAX, but that's it. but truthfully i think it'll be over in 5.

    kyle lowry versus kyrie irving should be a lot of fun. we got great point guard matchups in both the east and west finals matchups!!!
