You honestly think this series will be as competitive as last year? I'm just wondering if people are joking when they pick the Spurs, or are they just rooting for anyone who plays the Heat, which makes more sense.
Can't speak for others, but I root for the Spurs because I'm from San Antonio. :p

Yea it will and home court is on SA side. I am not guaranteeing a win but it will be close.

Did they say anything about Parker in the postgame? If he's hurt I can't see them having a chance.

Parker only had an ankle injury. minor and with 4 days of rest he should be good to go.
 
Heat winning is more on the contributions of Chris Bosh, Dwyane Wade and 1 random Heat shooter for 3's for at least 4 games. Wade needs to be Finals Wade.
Wade had Paul George and Hill on him and still put up points. He should be able to do more against the Spurs. Leonard going to be on James. So Green and Ginobili on Wade. Wade needs to great.
 
Thunder are kinda like the Chargers of the NBA

At least they got to the Finals...

Well that means Lakers are the Denver Broncos..lol/

They coming for you Thunder!!!...Swaggy P BDAY!

Seriously Westbrook needs to learn that he has a league MVP on his team and with a time like that the ball should be in Durant's hand. Fucking horrible shot.

The blame is on the Coach and Durant also they allow Westbrook to go crazy shooting bad shots. Kevin Durant is guilty of taking bad shots himself. When Scott Brooks said he thought they had a good season and he thought they should be happy with what they accomplished this year he should have been fired on the spot. The goal is not to settle for losing the the Western Conference finals. The goal is to win an NBA championship and his attitude shows why they lost. George Karl, Lionel Hollins, and Mark Jackson are all better coaches then Scott Brooks Okc should hire one of them.

Who is he going to learn it from, Scott Brooks?
Also, Durant should grow some balls, you see him taking himself out of plays all the times.
Actually, no, he shouldn't; fuck OKC, hire Brooks for 10 more years, trade Durant for an excel spreadsheet because cybermetrics.

On the other hand, look at this basketball porn

Damn that's pretty.
The spurs were carving OKC for most of the game, if they didn't have a pretty terrible shooting night it wouldn't have been close.

Edit: as for the finals, the spurs have no chance if Parker isn't healthy, X and Os only get you that far in basketball, especially in the NBA, which is set up (and officiated) to heavily favor stars.
And as you've seen in this game, Duncan doesn't get the calls he deserve given he's in the top 10 of all times (easily).
