    Hmm, interesting that seems like quite the lay off for both teams. I hope that series goes 7!

    That doesn't make sense because Game 7 could be Saturday and Denver could win it.

    Aren't people just guessing at this point?

    I heard it from several media outlets. Haven't seen a schedule but they all said that they would play Monday. If Denver wins on Thursday, they get a few days off as well.

    They might be. Especially if Denver wins tomorrow I doubt they’d want to wait til monday to start the series right? It seems like to me they’d want a weekend time slot for game 1 if they could get it, but maybe I’m wrong.

    I've already watched The Last Word or The Bad Shot well over 100 times. Anyone else afflicted with this?

    No. The game is Monday regardless of who the opponent is.

    Dame's shot was HUGE, but boy did OKC have to have a MASSIVE melt down to give the Blazers a chance. Up 8, with just over 2 minutes to go:

    Westbrook doesn't run down the clock and shoots a 21' jumper with tons of time left.
    Next possession, Paul misses 2 FT's
    Next possession, Westbrook again doesn't run down the clock and gets an offensive foul with 12 seconds left on the shot clock.
    Next possession, Westbrook AGAIN doesn't run down the clock and attacks the basket with 12 seconds left. He is cut off and Grant forces up a hurried shot that is way off and Portland gets FT's on the loose ball foul. Mo' hits 2 FT's with the clock stopped.
    George turnover....again, attacking the basket with 15 seconds left on the clock. (CJ hits jumper...tie game)
    Finally they run a decent play and George hits a FT-line jumper. (OKC up 2)

    OKC wasted 5 possessions in a row by either not running clock or getting a turnover and in some cases, compounded it by fouling and giving Portland points with the clock stopped.

    Thank you CH-OKC..

    I didn’t know where to put this but check out the angle at 1:30. Look at Nurk hugging it out with what looks like Tibbets. Look at Yim (gray suit) going crazy.

    who has the update on Kanter? I am thinking Nards will get major minutes and have a very hard time with Jock-itch (no offense to meyers, everyone has a hard time with him). I would expect Skal to get some reps too, lets see what he can do when the matchups are there.

    I hated what SVG said when he said it. I don't think for a minute that they were scared to see OKC in the playoffs that was just such utter nonsense they weren't trying to lose to avoid OKC they were resting their players because they had already clinched HCA and didn't care. I laughed and rolled my eyes when I heard that, he obviously wasn't paying attention to Portland at all.

    The one thing I haven't seen yet is OKC's broadcast of the shot. Has it been posted?
