    Agreed. What do they want to see? Spurs bball is basketball at its finest.

    Most people just want to see a Kobe or Wade dribble around by themselves the entire possession and jacking up some crazy shot.

    Pretty pathetic.

    Pop is one hell of a coach. Interesting how he went out and got Diaw so he could sit Blair's ass on the bench. All you Blazer fans who had a kinipshit when the Blazers passed on Blair can start hoping again. I am sure he will be available soon. Pop likes guys with skills.

    Never thought I'd see Hack-a-Splitter in my life... Especially in the third quarter.

    You don't do Hack-a-whomever when you're down 20. This is stupid.

    OKC getting to the line an insane amount the last 8 or so minutes.

    OKC seems to rely on the FT line to extend runs.

    Simply beautiful basketball by the Spurs. They've got a great chance to sweep the Thunder, no matter what though, I doubt this goes past 5 games. It looks like the Spurs and Miami are on a collision course for each other. Pop is going to exploit that Miami team so bad. If Parker is doing this to Chris Paul and Russell Westbrook, imagine what he'll do to Chalmers.

    Add me to the list of those really enjoying seeing basketball played the way it's supposed to be. You have to be able to pass the ball in order to play for Pop. Despite the NBA's insistence on marketing All-Stars, quality teamwork beats individual play nearly every time.

    I hope you are right but I think it will be a little tougher than that for them. So far the Spurs have played two bad teams on the road in the playoffs. I think the Thunder take both in OKC.

    I wonder if KD will get more minutes at PF. There isn't a worse combo to put together than Ibaka and Perk.

    That's like pairing Ratliff and Przybilla together back in the day.

    S2 favorite DeJuan Blair is probably available on the cheap.

    If you want a guy who starts all year and then gets benched when it matters in the playoffs, he's your guy.

    Something is up with Dejuan if you can't make it with the Spurs.

    OKC confusing the Spurs by switching on pick and rolls. Nice adjustment by Brooks.

    I hope Wes Matthews is watching Harden and taking notes.
