    you're right, but the D will make it possible. For some reason Lebron has the most trouble against slower defenders (Deng, Pierce). Prince might be able to contain him and Tony on an injured Wade could be great for Memphis.

    Their team assembled reminds me of the 09 rockets. Two of the best wing defenders in Artest and Battier compared with Prince and Allen right now. I like tough nosed teams like that. I will actually be rooting for them all the way.

    But they have a tremendous wing defender in Allen...Memphis is not a good match up for Miami

    Im not going to let one guy ruin a team for me.

    As long as Miami doesn't win, I'm happy. Pacers/Grizzlies final would b awesome.

    How does what feel? I don't know any OKC fans that didn't know their season was over once Presti had he press conference. Just been waiting for the axe to drop.

    allen won't stop lebron,

    the heat can at least slow down zbo and gasol with fronting and doubling gasol and randolph and forcing the grizzlies wing players to beat them

    +1. Not a really big fan of Westbrook. Use to like Durant, but didn't like him after the 1st round series with him.

    Losing this early after coming here and saying they were gonna beat the Heat in the finals. I can deal with what because he is a resident here, but not some random OKC fan.

    How does it feel?

    Same here, I didn't mind them much before this year, except for Westbrook. After Durant and Perkins and their whole fan base acted like mitches, they can suck it.

    Did you watch the Finals last years? He made Spoelstra look like a genius.

    Shouldn't that be a foul in the first place?

    Find me a post from a thunder fan that said they were going to beat the Heat. Someone needs to be slapped.
