    Westbrook goes from hero to zero. Nice job by Conley.

    Both at their prime? LeBron is superior physically, but MJ is such a better leader, such a better defender, so much smarter and so much more talented, it wouldn't be close.

    Lillard would have stopped him and scored in one motion. Conley ain't got shit. :ghoti:

    Not good for the League. Let's just agree he was "fouled", m'kay?

    Lol come on... LeBron is a 2 inch, 50 pound heavier version of MJ. If LeBron had the luxury of playing in an era where defense was allowed (He would've developed a shot a lot quicker because of this too) he would completely own MJ.

    You sound like a typical LeBron hater. He isn't perfect but he is probably the closest you can get on a basketball court ever.

    The entire Thunder team couldn't have flipped off Westbrook any better than they just did after this game.

    The team mobs Reggie Jackson, Durant is first there to celebrate, and Westbrook is running around the court by himself.

    Westbrook is going to be available for trade this summer.

    I tell ya what, there has been some FANTASTIC playoff games this year!

    I looked up in the middle of OT last night and just said out loud that this game was just AMAZING to be a part of. Even though we lost, I'll watch game 3 this summer when I'm jonesin' for basketball.

    The thing is, every game of the Rockets/Blazers series is going to be like that. So evenly matched. I just want one blowout that the Blazers win easily. Please. This is just getting to be too much. :lol:

    For I fleeting moment I was giddy that OKC was going to lose. But, Miller missed the layup, but was fouled, but missed the two free throws. That would have given them what, a 5 point lead? Bummer.

    I feel like the team that wins the Houston - Blazers series is going all the way. Obviously, I hope that's us.

    Well, they sure do give you a ton of replays? I just wish you could get in the ear of the refs and tell them how you feel. haha.

    It definitely seems like the most grinding of the series... mentally and physically.
