    So if this team gets a bench, could they be better than Okie town next year?

    Gotcha. Yeah, if Ibaka had played, he would've shut down the whole Spurs team tonight.

    If we get Serge Ibaka, we'll be the best team in the league!

    I personally felt they were good enough to beat the Thunder this year. Who knows, if they would have faced anyone other than the Spurs in the second round, they may have went to the CF. Only to lose to the Spurs.

    Indiana will likely win the title. Why would they trade their best player?

    Paul George is Indiana's 4th best player.

    Well, that makes me feel better about the way the Spurs dominated us. They are such a great team. They do everything well - ball movement, player movement, defensive rotations, setting screens, boxing out, etc.

    I know everyone, including Reggie Miller and Steve Kerr are playing the Ibaka injury card, but I'm not sure he'd make much difference. First, he's a great weak side shot blocker, but a below average man-to-man defender. He absolutely gets abused by LaMarcus Aldridge, forcing Brooks to put Perkins on Aldridge. In this series, if Ibabka was available, it would mean more big line-ups. And that would mean more Duncan and Splitter vs. Ibaka and Perkins. Not sure how OKC comes out ahead there. When Perkins and Sefalosha are in for defense, OKC is playing 3 on 5 on offense.

    You're joking, right? It was a fucking lay-up drill for the Spurs.

    Were we watching the same game ? Timmy was having layup drills for three out of the 4 quarters.

    You guys are mistaking the thunders defense in the third, for their defense all game

    Duncan scored but the Thunder made him work for those points. The Thunder are awesome.

    See my signature. :cheers:

    I know what you're saying, but I'm guessing yuyuza is lost yet again while watching a game.

    So you decided to post how great the OKC defense was after they gave up 67 points to the Spurs in the first half? What??
