    lol I just wanted to hear his opinion. he can be so critical of other teams. He was straight ripping on the Pacers against the Heat. I want to know what he thinks of his fave team's performance.

    I think the Thunder are actually playing pretty good. Not their A game but their playing their average. But the Spurs are just putting on a clinic.

    Difference between Miami and OKC is OKC drafted their superstars while Miami got 2 in Free Agency.

    really impressed by the spurs, didn't think they are this good. It's only game 2 though, okc just needs to protect home court.

    ok?????

    several reasons why you shouldnt want the spurs to win

    1. their in our division
    2. there in our state
    3. see 1 and 2
    4. in case you havent noticed, thats what teams are starting to do anyways. look at the mavs if they try to get deron. look at the lakers if they get dwight.

    Precisely. I was saying this to a friend before the playoffs even started, but the Spurs just play basketball the "right way". They play hard, unselfish, intelligent, team-first, win-first basketball. Just hard-nosed players that don't dominate the media with antics/drama.

    I'm a Rockets fan, but I'm a basketball fan, too. As a basketball fan, you have to love what you're seeing out there on that court.

    Seeing Pops yelling at Parker and his players you'd think they were down 16pts. LOL! Dude is so animated.

    Do we have to listen to Steve Kerr and Reggie Miller for the entire series. My ears will bleed before this series is over.

    I hear what you're saying, but these aren't just good looks. These shots are so wide open I actually expect the Spurs to be shooting the percentage they are. Even Parker is a decent range shooter when there's not even a hand in his vicinity.

    people talk about the heat ruining competitive balance but the spurs are currently making a mockery of it. i mean they have to fall at least slightly back to earth at some point don't they?

    they're about to finish the season on a 26 game winning streak including a 16-0 run through the playoffs. i think the thunder are mentally broken at this point. i can't see even being at home helping.

    Sweep - maybe Thunder don't keep Brooks.
    Maybe Harden/Ibaka are kept at slightly lower contracts.

    (Brightside for everything!)

    I wonder if Parker will go to the San Antonio Express News and say "It's either me or the coach."
