    I told people we should have not listened to Tunchi instead of drafting Lillard but none of you would listen.

    Who's pumped for GSW-OKC?

    Finally get to watch some great ball without the tension of my team getting embarrassed.

    I am, and i'm still not sure who I want to win.

    ON one hand, I want GSW to win it all and smoke the Thunder so Durant leaves. On the other hand, I don't want GSW to win it all again. I guess Ill go for sweeping OKC so we might have a chance at Durant and then have LBJ win a ring with Cleveland, but that all goes against my long term predictions. :)

    Actually they're starting to. Roberson is a great defender (he's basically a bigger Danny Green only without the three point shot) and Waiters is like JR Smith - usually a liability, but once in a while can just go off. Presumably Golden State will want to hide Curry on one of those but both of them can beat him up in the post.

    Though I agree, Cleveland deserves one and he is their best chance. And then when he gets it, the Blazers will the following year. I already predicted it. Check out the farmers almanac. Its already in the books.

    Im with ya. Except, I think this series might have a hand in what happens in the off season to alot of teams, so im paying more attention than I normally would.

    Damn no wonder your a homer. Some of us are fans of the game and love to watch top competition in a sport they enjoy watching..

    I fall somewhere in between. I still like to watch the big games, but I am definitely not as nearly as mentally invested.

    Why do I want the Thunder to beat GS? I don't like Westbrook, and the only guy on GS who is annoying is Draymond Green. But it's just that the Warriors and their fans think they are so damn special. The Thunder have been good for a long time and have never won a title, so I wouldn't mind them winning one.

    I don't like the Thunder or the Warriors but I usually root for the underdog so I think I'll be rooting for OKC. I could watch the game(s) and completely change my mind though.

    So far we're still the team who has played the Warriors the best in the playoffs.

    KD looks rattled. So many turnovers.

    Russ is scary when he's composed (for him anyway). It's like controlled aggression. Sick play

    Don't have to root for anybody. Just good competitive bball. Curry and KD are joys to watch when they aren't killing us
