durant isolations against parker are not good plays for SAS. great screens to switch by OKC
obviously happy it's 2-2. but our wins have come off perfect basketball, at home, with SAS being able to stay close at the end of the games. so still pessimistic about our chances
if we win the next 2 games, i'll be a bit happier

From a sa point of view your right that they couldnt have played much better bu they did what they did. They blew game 1 so they must be doing something right. Defensively they are so impressive, if not this year they will get their championships for sure.

wow...durant, ibaka and perks were great...i love westbrook but starting to lose respect, he just makes so many bad plays, taking forced shots and fouling ginobili on the three point line for a four point play...love his talent but his biggest knock is his lack of "feeling for the game" maybe the talk a while back of a westbrook for paul swap would of been a game changer...spurs will win the series, too much experience and depth! okc are so close now, next season maybe with some tinkering...

Ibaka 1 made shot away from an NBA Playoff Record. Ibaka? What a dude

 

[A_Iverson_I]

IBAKA!!!!!!! But, can't forget KD bringing the game home either!!

Could not disagree more!

Were you watching the same game as me? He realized he wasn't shooting well this game and he wasn't forcing anything, was mainly passing the ball around and taking the odd open shot. Who cares of he fouled Ginobili on that three? I care more about the fact he hustled down the court to try and contest the shot over the fact he fouled Ginobli on the shot, sh*t happens.

He hasn't played the best offensively the last couple games, but his defense has been impeccable!

 

[siladee]

i thought he was going to be on fire after that step back 3 pointer in the first!

 

[A_Iverson_I]

Haha yeah, that was nice!

 

[spurlec]

Must agree that westbrooks defense has been great.

your right his defense has improved, especially after game one when parker burnt him...and sefolosha started guarding him...like i said i love westbrook and he is supremely talented...but he needs to make better decisions in the flow of the offense and durant is still and should be the go to guy! i think that point was bought home well in game 4...the last two games westbrook has shot 5/15 and 2/10, so do you think he should keep shooting more than durant do you? that would get them a long way!
i just worried for the sake of okc when you see westbrook run down and pull up for quick jump shots when no one is back to rebound...surely you can at least see that cant you???

I reckon it was his passing and setting players up that won them those last 2 games (aswell as the monster game by Ibaka and Durant )
Thunder always seem to do better when Westbrick stops being the hero on every play and plays team ball. I don't mind him going off from time to time but he just needs to realise when he's not hot he needs to play point guard.

Eddy Curry rockin the check (flanno) under the suit on the bench.

 

[Verse1]

Anyone seen DWade? Is he playing?

This is a throwback to Lebrons Cav's days

 

[WoobieZarz]

Damn, not seeing any footage, but the ESPN gamecast has a TONNE of offensive fouls! Pierce bows out late 4th, Bron takes a seat mid OT. Wade misses 3 to win the game. Celts even things up.

 

[SpriteAllNight33]

That Boston game was AMAZING ... That wore me out just watching !!! 1 of the best Playoff games I've seen In a LONG time. I love how the Eastern & Western Conference Finals are both tied 2-2 ... Whoever plays In this years Finals really will EARN It ! ... These guys gotta win on the road though ! ... Beat the Heat !!!

 

[GarnettFan4Life]

Who's showing up biggest in playoff you ask?

Refs


People don't pay to see YOU. You are not the star attraction lol

So many big calls. Both ways.

 

[GarnettFan4Life]

There also needs to be a foul added for each OT IMO

At LEAST into the 2nd OT but maybe even going into OT. More minutes!!! = more fouls!!!

Celtics heat another waste of time to watch...

Your overly biased, one eyes opinions and stupid throw away comments are starting to get rather irritating!! When spurs fire your on them harder then a japanese business man on a cheap hooker but when they are down and outplayed its always about who did what wrong at SAS. Pretty sad really....
