    Harden is probably my favorite thunder. I like his game. He's the next Jason Terry!

    When you are 6'11", the best player on your team and a 3-time scoring champ.....you really don't take many "bad shots." He probably had a better chance at converting that shot than any other "more open" OKC player on the floor. And Marion timed it perfectly, it's not like you can really account for that fully until after you've already committed.

    Harden should be their number 1 free agent target. He will be blowing up to superstardom once he becomes the main guy.

    he sucks now, he's not a starter anymore, and when he was healthy, he never made it out of the first round.

    SHUT UP TOFs, this thread isn't about your idol.

    The old saying comes to mind: It's better to be lucky than good. After shooting so poorly, KD got the roll. He was lucky it went in and OKC was very lucky to win. They hung in there, took a lot of blows and ended up with more points at the end.

    Down 7 with 2 mins left, I thought the Mavs had it in the bag. I can't think of a better way for them to lose tonight. I don't know if they can play any better but it still wasn't enough.

    after last year's playoffs, they are owed some heartbreaking losses. they had 2 of the craziest comebacks of all time in 1 playoff run.

    it looked like they were going to make every shot they needed to to stem every thunder run and then they gave up that 7-0 run and as morey says "great teams don't win close games, they avoid them" and the lucky shot got them.

    repped. I told you guys these TOFs are the worst thing to happen to this board, can't even freaking talk about a great Thunder game without these fake Rocket fans dropping their turds.

    Remember Thunder/Mavs games 4 & 5 last year? Payback is a dog.
