Yep! OKC did what it had to do to make it a series now. If they had lost one at home it would've been a wrap come Game 5.
The way I see it whichever team wins game 5 will end up in the finals against the Heat. I predict that SA will win game 5 and travel to OKC to finish the Thunder off.

It all becomes a moot point though. Neither the Spurs or the Thunder will be able to Beat the Heat in the finals!

Yep, I was wrong as Fuck about this series.

Congrats to the future inevitable champs, OKC. Well done. Don't like their talent, personally, but they got the job done this year. Props.

Really, Spurs and Celtics are better teams as far as coaching and being fundamentally sound. Heat probably got the worst coaching of the 4 however, they are still the most talented.

I don't see game 6 @ OKC as a sure thing like some of u fellers. Of course I'd like to but when the Spurs are running on all cylinders they're tough to beat. I don't want to see a game 7.

Celtics are a big surprise thus far.. Actually RONDO is a big surprise to me so far. I knew the feller could ball. But damn, he can BALL!!!!! Got me to the point where I'm actually worried. Garnett?, no problem (keep him outside) Pierce? ok (play him tight) R. Allen? no prob (keep him off the line (3pt/FT)).. RONDO??? No fucking clue!! prey maybe? I guess I pretty much figured him for an ideal PG for Boston that had assist #'s bloated by being on a good shooting team. I didn't know he had game like this..

Now hands down, Rondo is the best Point Guard left in the playoffs.. But am I right? Is he emerging to be the best Point Guard in the league? Not one of the best... But THE BEST??

Here is a recent poll of the Best Point Guards....



& yes to u haters... Lowry belongs on that list... (pre injury/illness was averaging 16.5pts 8.7asts 6.9rbs and 2.1stls. & was ranked a
top10 player mentioned in the race for MVP)


Rose, to me should be #1

But seriously, Rondo... I'm starting to think he's better than CP3....

Damn Willy, I love that fire you bring in your posts.

But what I meant about not liking their talent, I just meant that I don't like most of their players, personally. I absolutely respect their game, and there ares some guys on that team that are talented as Fuck, but I'm just not a fan of the team, as a whole...

Celtics are a surprise, no doubt. I love Rondo's smugness, he seems to deliver a legendary performance every post-season. Quck story, I was at concert, and I met him outside of a club that night (Along with some other Celtcis) he was kind of a dick. Stephan Jackson was at the concert too(it was a Slim Thug, show was actually pretty lame...), but he was such a great guy, I loved it because he's actually one of my favorite players, and I thought Rondo would be kind of a douche, so it was all good lol.this was in late 2010 btw

But that PG list is absurd, Rubio over Kidd? How does that measure up? I agree though, I'd take Rose over anyone. But you can't really rank them, unless you do it as
elite PGs, really good PGs, good PGs, and average PGs (Or something like that, it's Fucking pointless, it's like debating who's better in top 10 QBs in the league, or debating between Schaub vs Romo...)

I'd put Rondo in the elite right now..

Yeah I got problems with that list as well...


But the question is... Does Rondo take the cake?

I'm seriously starting to consider it.

Well, Rondo has basically been playing against lesser PGs and owning them this post season, so I don't know. Westbrook had to go through Jason Kidd, Ramon Sessions, and Tony Parker. D. Rose got injured. Williams obviously didn't make it. And Chris Paul single handily got won a game seven on the road against the Grizzlies.

They're all great PGs. But I think if I had to choose one guy right now, it would either be Rose or Paul. Rondo would be my third of fourth, but if he can somehow lead them past Miami, I can't argue putting him as the number one.
Who woulda ever thunk it? Celtics go up 3 games to 2 by stealing one on the Heat's home court!

BOSTON IN SIX, CALLED IN MOTHERFUCKERS!

I've gotten 99% of my other predictions wrong, but still...

But really though, that was pathetic by Miami. Garnet played some inspiring Fucking basketball. That three by Pierce in the end. GODDAMN. Rondo continues to deliver, what a performance.

Game six will be HELL. Cannot wait. Jesus, it's going to be tense.

Keeping Garnett outside doesn't work to well when that jumper is falling. Heat will need Bosh to step up somehow to hold off the Celtics on this roll. Like Kobe, D. Wade has that killer instict in crunch time. Lebron is getting there. I think it will go 7 games.

SA has got to play a perfect game to beat OKC on the road. IMO winner of game 6 takes the series. Obviously for OKC to advance. But winning a game 7 on the road is historicaly difficult for any team. It'll probably go down to the wire tonight but I believe I'll be pickin up that lap dance. Only prob is good lap dances are like cold beer and potato chips. You can never stop at just one.

After the Spurs went up 2 games to none the odds were strongly in my favor that I would be "pickin' up that lap dance." That is not nearly as likely of an outcome at this point in time. We'll see what happens this evening!

Congrats to the Thunder, they were the better team, which is crazy to say considering people were considering the Spurs to be one of the all time great teams just a week ago. And what happened to D-Fish? The guy seems rejuvenated as hell, he has been solid in every series in the playoffs so far.

Jackson was awesome for the Spurs tonight, I wish they had gotten more off the bench, they had a really good season though.

I was wrong about OKC, you don't beat Dallas in 4, LAL in 5, and SA in 6, and have it classified as luck. This team will be the favorites from now to win it all for many years to come.

I'll still be rooting against them. I enjoyed the trophy celebration tho. I like Scott Brooks and his staff, they deserve credit too. I hope they play Boston, Westbrook vs Rondo sounds like fun. Old guys vs young guys!

Congrats to the Oklahoma City Thunder for coming behind from an 18-point deficit to
kick the San Antonio Spurs' ass and take the Western Crown!!! I'm LUVIN' that shit!!!

I expect Boston to beat Miami(LeBron will be denied again) but they ain't gonna beat OKC. Them young fresh legs are gonna tire them old legs of Boston out!

OKC will win it ALL!!!

Thanks OKC!!





BT.. Your warning me about overconfidence??
Willy, if we have a Spurs/Thunder NBA West Finals, perhaps a friendly $20 wager might be in order. Once the Spurs win the series, I will gladly let you pay my winnings to a stripper of my choice for a lapdance! Go Spurs! Originally Posted by bigtex
