    Westbrook's averaging 25-11-6 in the playoffs. Against no scrubs, really.

    OKC will be in the Finals, and they will lose, because Durant becomes a scared little girl when he faces LeBron.

    I would trade our entire roster for Westbrook.

    The Warriors are giving up TO's and Offensive rebounds to the Thunder. It's killing them.

    No excuses for Steph. You're the MVP you have to play hurt. We saw Michael do it, we saw Kobe do it, he hasn't delivered bottom line.

    I think this is the year for KD. Westbrook is playing at such an absurd level, he'll bring that team with him.

    Still, I think a healthy GSW destroys the Cavs. OKC might win, but they won't destroy them.

    LeBron is 17-4 vs Durant head to head. He owns Durant and his mama, the real MVP. That could change, but I don't like that stat.

    I find it impossible to not cheer for Westbrook and Durant. I want these guys to win so badly. They deserve it.

    Klay scores 19 in a row for GS, cuts the lead down to 6ish, and Kerr (coach of the year!!) takes him out. Good job.

    The only dude who was doing anything gets taken out, and this is the result of course

    He doesn't own Durant. LeBron's teams have gotten the better of OKC, but who cares honestly? OKC is a different team now. They've dominated two teams that had gotten the better of them in recent years and they're showing regular season meetings mean absolutely nothing.

    Cant believe the warrior's are getting beat down like this. Green and Curry have been awful.

    While the Warriors can very much still win this series (they are defending champs after all), OKC just have that swagger to them that looks and feels like they can win it all. They're just so much quicker on loose balls and on-point with their passing. I have yet to see anyone slow down Westbrook. He's had a couple of rough first halfs this series but he always seems to find another gear later on in these games.

    You've been in Cavs denial all season long. I guess only them winning the Finals will snap you out of that. I hope like hell Im wrong and OKC beats the Cavs down just like this.

    I am scared. Durant and Westbrook aren't the media darlings Curry is. Reffing in the Finals will be atrocious.

    But NBA will acknowledge each of the problems after the fact, so it's kewl.

    Ezeli has become a liability for Kerr in this series.

    How am I in denial? You do realize they're tied with the Raptors right? If anything you've overrating them. They've beaten up on two crap teams and are now in a dog fight. Meanwhile OKC is about to take down a 73 win team having already defeated a 67 win team. They should be favored.

    People have been throwing around "greatest team in NBA history" a wee bit too much lately. Big difference between best record in NBA history and best team. Maybe they started believing all their press. Now if they don't come back to win this series and against whoever comes out of the east they will be just like Dallas a few years ago that caught lightning in a bottle. Fine by me .... will root like hell for KD and RW to get their first ring, plus will mean Luke can get on much quicker with the business of being the Lakers head coach. Woot woot woot.
