The Thunder should be in a 3 - 1 lead if Scott Brooks had drawn up a better play in game 2 with the Lakers up by 2 instead of having Durant take a turn-around 3 pointer.
What's wrong about hating the Lakers? Remember last year Kobe's knee on Battier face, Vujacic's bloodshed on Battier, Fisher, Odom trashtalking....you name it. Don't call yourself a Rockets fan if you love the Lakers. This is not even a Lakers forum for God's sake. I am not sure OKC can win in LA, but I surely HOPE OKC kicks the Lakers ass. If you don't like that, you can just GTFO Lakers fan.
This reminds me of when we blew out the Lakers last year without Yao (and with Artest playing like crap)? LA just loves to play with fire as far as their intensity goes. It's got to come back and hurt them sometime. Not in this series though. I just can't see OKC winning in LA, the free throw advantage will be in LA's favor and that will be that.
Or if Scott Brooks had put jittery Jeff Green on the bench in the 4th quarter of game 2 instead of leaving him in the game to get roasted and toasted by Kobe and then contributing zippo on offense. At least he got wise and did the right thing in game 3.
This whole half of the bracket depresses me. I hate the Lakers, and as a Seattle resident I loathe the Thieves. I hate the Jazz, and I'm not too fond of the Nuggets. The fact that one of those teams will be in the WCF blows. I'm kind of watching these series in a detatched, clinical manner. I don't want any of them to win and keep hoping that somehow both teams can lose a game. Maybe if the earth opened up and swallowed the arena.... I actually like the other four teams and am definitely rooting for the Spurs, Mavs, Blazers, or Suns to represent the West.

If this series goes to game 7 (or a game 6 if the OKC wins next game) the FT disparity and all the calls are going to go in favor of the lakers. The NBA will do it anything to get the lakers in the finals.
Lakers fans are just so damn delusional its sad. Really LA? The NBA hates yall? really? I mean come one, they show those damn puppets its almost telling us we have to expect a Lebron vs Kobe finals. Then comes a young more talented team, but very inexperienced, and they're eating your lunch all day, and all of a sudden the NBA and Stern want OK freakin C to get to the finals. Faker fans really are in their own world. The Thunder are playing with no pressure, I mean no one predicted them to expose the Lakers like this. It really is insulting to see how good Westbrook is playing, just absolutely torching Fisher, and blaming the refs for how ofetn he attacks the basket.
i am not going anywhere dude, grow up stop acting like a little girl whinning about me being a laker fan and all i am a rox/laker fan dude
Agreed. A kobe vs lebron, I mean lakers vs Cavs series is a lot more profitable for the nba/organisations than a thunder vs cavs series. Stern is going to make sure that profit is maximised, whether it is cheating is not important. I guess his speach about coaches not complaining about the refs is to ensure that when the refs assure lakers and cavs finals, no one complains and makes a big deal out of it.
Yes I am a little girl while you are a real man kissing Lakers ass in a Rockets forum, blaming others for "hating" the Lakers.
