Kramerica Industries Posted June 1, 2012 Share Posted June 1, 2012 Looks like the Spurs 20 game winning streak, and pursuit of 16-0 will end tonight.Not shocking. Didn't think OKC was going to fall behind 3-0 in this series. The real key was always Game 4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brendan Posted June 1, 2012 Share Posted June 1, 2012 We've got ourselves a series! That game reminded me of game 3 in last years SCF. The Canucks, just the Spurs we're feeling pretty good about themselves after winning two at home, only to get whooped. The Spurs have a bit more composure than the Canucks so I expect them to recover, something Vancouver was never able to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DG_ThenNowForever Posted June 3, 2012 Share Posted June 3, 2012 I missed the first Spurs/Thunder game in OKC but am watching tonight.JESUS THIS FRIGGIN CROWD. It's high school and college basketball mixed with minor league baseball watching the most fun team since the mid-2000s Phoenix Suns. It doesn't seem fair. 1 hour ago, ShutUpLutz! said: and the drunken doodoobags jumping off the tops of SUV's/vans/RV's onto tables because, oh yeah, they are drunken drug abusing doodoobags Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kramerica Industries Posted June 3, 2012 Share Posted June 3, 2012 Funny how change of venue changes everything.Now it's the Thunder who look fantastic. Which they are, but they're the ones who need to have one of these performances on the road in order to win the series, so the onus will remain on them.

It doesn't seem fair.No, it's not, but I have to watch Bulls games all year, where everyone sits politely and only cheers at appropriate, Jumbotron-instructed times. Some organic enthusiasm is a nice change of pace for the NBA, at the expense of Seattle as it may be. Thank your lucky stars that they're not incessantly banging cowbells like the Sacramento Kings fans of ten years ago. ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's more just a general annoyance with the entire culture. I'm not familiar with it and I distrust it and it shouldn't be supporting the next great basketball franchise.Kevin Durant is an incredible fourth quarter player.

Kramerica Industries Posted June 3, 2012 Share Posted June 3, 2012 Either way, we've got a 2-2 series, and from when I started (three-way) watching, at 36-31, I never saw the Thunder trailing.These two teams are as evenly matched as it gets. And, in my opinion, the two best teams in the NBA. Sucks that it had to go head-to-head with a Final game tonight that I paid more attention to - this is great basketball to watch.

CubsFanBudMan Posted June 3, 2012 Share Posted June 3, 2012 Yeah, you have to let these guys accomplish something of significance first before figuring out their place in history. Neither of them have a ring or a Finals MVP yet, and both could have a career-ending injury in their next game. So let's worry about "when all is said and done " when all is said and done. And enjoy the ride. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HolyStroke Posted June 3, 2012 Share Posted June 3, 2012 Isn't 3 MVPs to 0 MVPs all you need? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CubsFanBudMan Posted June 3, 2012 Share Posted June 3, 2012 Isn't 3 MVPs to 0 MVPs all you need?Nope. Regular-season MVPs are way too random and are sometimes a popularity -- or worse -- a default or "career" vote. To be an NBA Finals MVP you have to be there, and win, so I measure all-time greatness with those and the man the trophy is named after. Like I said above, why don't we let Durant and LeBron play their careers before we define them? They both have a long way to go. There's a reason there's a waiting period before most Hall of Fame entries. Perspective. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
