Spurs definitely set the tone. It looked like 5 on 2 at certain times, the 2 being KD and Westbrook. Amazed how close they made it. Series is FAR from over but OKC definitely misses Ibaka, they could've used a third option and 50% from the field tonight.

I don't see Thunder getting past game 5...
Indiana Heat should be more interesting but Heat will take it.

I don't know about the Heat winning. They seem tired and uninterested at times.

*shuriken* · 05-27-2014, 11:59 PM

The way the conference finals have been shaping up I don't even know what to expect anymore. But the Spurs got owned tonight.

Wingnut · 05-28-2014, 12:27 AM

Westbrook put up NBA Jam-like numbers, 40pts 10ast 5reb 5stl. I think he had a block too.

Still can't believe point guards (Magic Johnson & A.I. aside) put up numbers like that now.

Spurs have been rocked, it's official. Seems like game 5 is make or break.

Seriously I thought I was watching a game of NBA Jam

Its really tough to say who will win this series now.
The Spurs look like they saw a ghost from the past.

I really hope big blue wins one in San Antonio but I'm not sure how the thunder keep that intensity going. Though we swept SA in reg season, i still don't know if we can beat them in SA during playoffs. They have so much confidence at home. It's now best of 3 let's see what OKC is made of. Hurtsmthat r. Jackson spraine dhis ankle last night and ibaka is still rehabbing even though he's playing.

*XERO* · 05-28-2014, 01:39 PM

Yeah, it's all a home game situation. But I know somebody will crack and they beat them in their own place.

I just hope it's not the Spurs. They know how this went in 2012. They need to wake up.

Meanwhile, Miami seems to be doing alright... -__-

Well if OKC were to lose to someone, I'd rather it be SA. I cannot stand LAL, LAC, Memphis, or Dallas. As long as it's not them, then I'm not as pissed lol.

Well good thing all those teams were knocked out or missed the playoffs.

*XERO* · 05-28-2014, 06:59 PM

Most of them by the Spurs. Haha.

*Redeemer* · 05-28-2014, 10:32 PM

Wow the Refs just gave that game to the Pacers.....

But I do have to give Paul George credit he was clutch down the stretch.

Spurs vs Heat. The Rematch.

I'm ready.

The playoffs are just beginning!!!!
The epic rematch!!!!

Wingnut · 06-01-2014, 01:27 PM

I have to ask...Who's gonna win?

I'll go against my better judgement and say Spurs, they'll be out for blood after last year either way. No idea how many games it will take.

*XERO* · 06-01-2014, 03:12 PM

No idea. I'm definitely going for my team the Spurs. But you gotta admit...

This is a HELL of a story they both are telling. Miami are going for the 3-peat, the Spurs want to avenge that devastating loss last year. I mean... you have NO IDEA how close they were to winning if it wasn't for a couple of hiccups and THAT 3-pointer.

But if we were able to get past our hardest hurdle in the Thunder, anything is possible.

I can't wait for Thursday (well, I can so Parker can heal up. Haha).

The biggest difference this year for the Heat is no Mike Miller and Dewayne Wade is healthy for the first time in about two playoffs.

Yeah, it was just a awesome 3. I'm just glad the Spurs didn't fold and let them walk over them. We fought to the end. It was a great series and the better team won.

We'll see what happens this time.
