    Though Courtney Lee would've helped, it was a smart move by Chicago to keep Asik instead of trading him. That extra big body off the bench is really helping the Bulls in this series.

    If the mavs can't defend Durant, they can't defend James either. The mavs need to sign a good perimeter defender (e.g., Battier) this summer.

    OKC is getting outclassed. This is what I expected to happen in the series. I'm not saying Dallas will blow them out, but they are just better and more seasoned.

    Lol.

    JVG: I don't know what you say to get a technical after a play like that. But if you make that, you should be able to say whatever you want to whoever you want. And there are mom's here.

    OKC has been extremely poor at closing out on the perimeter shooters. It will cost them the series.

    Peja getting killed on the defensive end on consecutive possesions... barely in the picture after the first step on the Durant dunk and the Maynor drive.

    Mark Jackson is a complete idiot. It was good that JVG cleaned up after him and said it was as much getting Green out of the way for Hardin and Ibaka as anything else. Jackson must be on drugs if he thinks the trade was bad for OKC.

    OKC has to turn up the intensity. Besides Durant, the other players don't seem to understand the moment. Maybe later in the game.
