the inference was that the Clippers and the Thunder were going to represent the Western Conference and that the winner of the Western Conference would win the NBA Finals.

Change your diaper and try to follow.

Whoever this is doing the Cavs game is hilarious

god I hate the C's but I'm on board with this guy (also cause he's from the U)

You gotta love him





Kyrie making sure he going to the all-star game with this game


Tristan Thompson been playing like a 4th overall pick ever since Andy went down. He's good

lol

I can't even hate. LOL


----------------------------
Same as it ever was!

Dumb turnovers at crucial moments and driving and shying away from contact.

Dude go to the Foul Line.

I didn't watch the whole game, but was Rondo reaching like he did on that last And 1 all game?

That's dumb lazy defense. You know you ain't gonna rip him. Move your feet.

every NBA agenda will look like this...

guess who the sun is.

i guess okc should take this one with cp3 out, but it should still be a decent game.

pistons still on that march to the offs tho

I turned to LMAO @ mateen cleaves and it's 4

it would be nice if OKC could land a big and start bringing Perk off the bench. Not sure there's any options out there though.

Chris Paul obviously is a crucial person missing this evening but I'm still not buying them being better than the Thunder in a seven-game series.

And Lawler please do not cop pleas about Chauncey being out of the lineup, what else is new?

There's no guarantee that dude's really ever gonna play again or be a difference maker on the floor if he does.

I don't know that I've ever seen somebody make that shot look more fluid & easy with a defender in his face.

Something like a 7'4 wing span combined with his already formidable height means you basically have to be at the top of your jump to alter his shot...which means if you jump when he jumps, you just have to hope he misses. It's ridiculous.

Clippers aren't forcing enough turnovers to play the game they want to play, though.

OKC shooting lights out.

Bledsoe having a tough night.

that's for sure.

he has still shown some really nice things tonight, to me at least, just not starting PG level play.

I forget.

Defending the 3 has been a huge issue since last year

You can't win like that.

i'm not sure this sample size means much.

OKC is just that good.

cliche as shit, but when Durant is going off, what're you gonna do?

It's a problem.

>It's a problem.

bomb a three with a man on him, walk the next one up then quick-release bomb another three, come up with the ball a third time then find a wide open corner shooter (even if it was Ibaka) for three to get the assist, and then the last time when he sees people playing him up close just quickly go by the whole defense with two dribbles to finish with a vicious dunk on their heads as an exclamation.

Not that they were coming back anyway but they were cutting it to 6-8 here and there, there's no getting off the mat from that though.

Clippers would've swept.

With Ibaka playing even better, Martin being a ridiculous 3rd option, and KD seamlessly adjusting to have the ball more in his hands due to Harden leaving...then of course there's Westbrook and their team D as well. Cotdamn, this squad is great.

a tough order to get The Thunder out of there this year I agree.

Lebron would have to beast out to a crazy degree.

I really wish they'd trade Wade, they're running out of time.

If they make it to the finals it will be solely because of LeBron.

they should be worried about beating.

Don't really put to much meaning into this loss for the reason.

Offense was bad... lot of one on one ball.. no ball movement.. no passing...

Considering that they were playing without their best player, on the 2nd night of a back-to-back vs two of the fastest teams in the league, vs the best team in the league, and one of the best players in the league shoots out of his mind in the 2nd half...I'm not mad at their performance.

The weaknesses that we saw were a factor of Paul not being on the court. I saw great things from Blake on the offensive end, Caron played great D on Durant during the first half, Grant Hill looked very good as well...they made a final push and the effort was there the entire game.

I can't be mad at the performance against the best team in the league.

Close. Now is he a better player than Lebron, nah, but the gap is closing.

Am I missing something? Paul didn't play, right?

Don't put too much stock into this game, folks...Still wanna see both teams at full strength....

But one things for sure...The Clips better hope dude is healthy...All this talk about them being the deepest team don't mean shit if Paul ain't on the floor in the playoffs....

If Paul healthy, they are a problem against any team..

The problem is, he has known to be a bit injury prone...

but I like the Clippers & would like to be wrong.

I'd favor OKC in a series but I wouldn't be shocked if the Clips upset them.
Who knows, maybe Vinny is saving some tricks for the playoffs. Ha

OKC is certainly more proven, and probably better, but i don't think the gap is enormous.

Indeed....
