Rose proving why he's the MVP

5/22/2011 10:02:51 PM

Deng gets a B- for his Reggie Miller impression

5/22/2011 10:22:54 PM

Thib can't do anything right. How the Hell did he get coy? He's terrible you never want the coach to be the story of the game

5/22/2011 10:31:45 PM

Rose needs to pass more

[Edited on May 22, 2011 at 10:35 PM. Reason : Never seen so many flops called, besides any Duke game of course]

5/22/2011 10:34:25 PM

Countdown til face declares Bosh as the best big man to ever play the game.

5/22/2011 10:40:48 PM

if you need to put noah on anthony then do it but whoever guards bosh needs to stick to him. Wade and lebron can't score more than 60pts on single coverage.

5/22/2011 10:41:15 PM

Bosh is straight killing people. Can't figure out why he didn't play hard during the the season. Thib never gave the bulls a shot tonight I'm dumping Chicago obviously

MIA went to their playoff lineup and chi still has their the season one out there u

the Bulls are gonna really have to play above their heads if they want a chance to face Dallas in the finals

although Chicago would probably be up by 20 if Spoelstra foolishly played Miller any significant minutes

[Edited on May 22, 2011 at 10:58 PM. Reason : how is that not a shot clock violation]

hopefully the Mavs can outscore Miami and prevent LeQuit from getting his first title this year

Really?? Have you made a correct "prediction" this whole playoffs?? Is Chicago still going to make the finals?

Nice job scoring the ball, Chris, but it looks pretty bad for a power forward to have a self described game of his life where he has five rebounds.



oh and Kobe loves this

lol at Kenny Smith and Barkley trying to not laugh at Sammy Sosa last night. Wish I had that recorded.

Bosh for series MVP?

5/23/2011 1:29:27 PM

we'll get to watch a game every single night until one of the series ends

if both series go to 7 games, we'll have one game every single night for the next 8 nights

great scheduling for fans

Sefalosha just hit a mid-range jumpshot. The Thunder are going to win or the rapture is coming. Not sure what.

5/23/2011 9:24:48 PM

The ref assignments tell you all you need to know about this game...Stern wants 7

5/23/2011 9:28:36 PM

It seems like the Thunder should be up by at least 15

5/23/2011 10:08:01 PM

I guess this series is over, right?

OKC is slightly better but Dallas has the experience edge and homecourt advantage. Dallas is clearly the favorite... but by how much? 2:1 at most... I'm thinking -180

Treetwista, good research there Gumshoe, for your follow-up assignment please report back to me on the diference between correlation and causation. Be Snappy.

How do you lose an NBA playoff game when owning the boards 55 to 32?


Commit 26 turnovers

Good god what an implosion

Last game played in Oklahoma City this year

wow terrible way to end what looked to be a great series, especially that touch foul that put dirk on the line but okc's offensive execution was also shameful

Jesus Christ. Between Dallas blowing a 23 pt lead in the 4th, the Paul pierce meltdown in game 5 vs MIA, and the Russell Westbrook apocalypse I don't know what sucked worse.

I do think its funny people are starting to see thru the hype surrounding some of these guys.

They almost need to trade Westbrook for a pg now. They have such a great young nucleus that its not worth risking it on Westbrook ever learning the position

5/24/2011 7:47:14 AM

^Westbrook had about as good a game as Durant did last night. (Durant had 9 TOs!!)

I do think he's had an erratic playoffs (mostly on the bad side) and that his immaturity has gotten the best of him (listening to everyone question his decision making ability). But you would be retarded to get rid of that kind of talent at such a young age...especially at the point guard position.

He needs to get a more consistent jumper and he'll be fine. He's been way off from long range in this series.

5/24/2011 7:50:56 AM

Cannot believe the Thunder lost that game last night. Went from a likely 7 game series to a fucking 5 game Dallas victory thanks to 5 minutes of NC State Herb Sendak choke fest basketball. Scott Brooks credibility watch?




[Edited on May 24, 2011 at 7:57 AM. Reason : want both series to go 7 games]

5/24/2011 7:56:29 AM

I think it can still go 7 games (I give Thunder about a 50/50 chance of winning the next game in Dallas).

But it did go from "OKC can possibly to take this!!" to, "which game will Dallas close them out in??"

"OKC can possibly to take this!!"

5/24/2011 8:19:32 AM

it's not going 7 games. and OKC doesn't have a 50/50 shot in Dallas. they've got a chance to go 6, but not a good one. the kind of collapse they had at the end of the game last night stays with you. i'd be shocked if Dallas doesn't do the same thing to close this out that they did against L.A.

Like the collapse Dallas had against Portland??

losing a road game 4 to tie the series != losing a home game 4 to go down 3-1

Quote :

rally, is that you?

5/24/2011 9:48:47 AM

^They took one of two games in Dallas already in this series.

As long as they don't let last night's game affect their play (which is entirely possibly because of their lack of experience), I don't see any reason why they can't win. Everyone called for a Dallas sweep after the first game and OKC SHOULD have it tied up right now.

5/24/2011 10:00:05 AM

The OKC meltdown was very reminiscent of college games.

If you start out too strong building an early lead and the other team sticks around, they will have the stamina to finish it late in the game. It happens in college bball all of the time.

5/24/2011 10:54:51 AM

and Dallas would be the senior-laden team thats experienced plenty of meltdowns in the past, whereas OKC is the team of star freshmen that still have growing to do before they make their own run at the NBA Finals

and they'll make runs at the finals, just not this year

5/24/2011 11:25:33 AM

I think westbrook is at a crossroads now, he really doesn't want to turn in to the marbury/arenas/steve francis type of fake superstar

5/24/2011 3:48:57 PM

Well he's only 22 years old right now

But those are some good comparisons...like Westbrook, all the guys you mentioned are shoot-first two guards asked to run the point position

5/24/2011 4:03:02 PM

Except those guys could actually shoot

5/24/2011 4:05:53 PM

Crittenton told me Arenas was scared to shoot
