    LOL

    Um, OK. Yeah. It's that simple. That half-circle and the defensive three-second rule exist for a reason.

    It all seems to be moot now, anyway, because both teams are going to go to the Dirk/Durant isos (or they should, anyway).

    I'm sure those are super easy to defend as well?

    Sometimes, it is that simple.

    Heh, Harden turns it over as he tries to go right.

    Miami is just on another level defensively. Both talent wise, and BBIQ wise.

    The stars will still get theirs but these bench players like Barea/Marion/Harden, etc who are taking advantage of mistakes now won't be able to do so in the next round.

    Westbrook is big reason why OKC will lose this series.

    And he's a big reason why they made it to the WCF.

    Westbrook is going to end the playoffs with at least a -5 in Ortg vs. Drtg while putting up a usage rate of ~ 35%.

    He's basically sucked the entire playoffs, outside of one game. I'm a bit surprised Brooks didn't bench him again this game. He's taken 28 shots this game.

    There's the unwritten rule again. Terry didn't need to do that at the end.

    So glad the Mavs won the West. Love Dirk, love Kidd, love Terry, love Cuban, love their resiliency over the years.

    Fate will give them another chance against Miami.

    Dallas will beat Miami or Chicago (wouldnt be surprised if ECF goes 7) in 5 games. You heard it here first.
