Almost gametime baby! Time to step up :drunk: Go Warriors! Just don't go out like the 86 Lakers because you guys will hurt your fans feelings. I can see OKC pulling this out similar to Ralph style!

Great, we have 2 Game 6's at least. 2 pretty good series going on now. Warriors stepped up and avoided elimination.

None of these teams would touch the playoff Spurs from 2 years ago and a bunch of other past playoff teams I can think of. My theory is that because the 3 point shot has taken over the NBA, when it comes time to grind in the playoffs, teams are getting worse at it.

Would touch?

Not sure, Spurs went through a fast fading Heat team and a bunch of up and coming teams.

OKC and GSW have Prime aged superstars and role players who can get it done.



Let's not diminish these guys

That team played a near perfect brand of basketball IMHO. One of the great playoff teams of all-time.

Yeah I think that Spurs team was better than any team this season as well. Duncan still had game so they could play inside out.

I think making 6 Finals is impressive so LeBron deserves credit for that but if he doesn't complete the deal it wont matter to most people. If he loses that puts him 2-5 in Finals which is an awful record. Even if he wins that still only puts him 3-4. He needs to win this to shut his critics up like me LOL. If he loses again I will be right here once again being critical. It's tougher to win SB's In the NFL because QB's cant play Defense but had Peyton never won that 2nd SB I would've been critical of him as well just to show I am not hating on LeBron. It just comes with the territory, you cant have a losing record in the Finals, and should at least win twice to prove it wasn't lucky or a fluke which LeBron has at least done that. At least Peyton ended up 2-2 at .500 in SB's. I was glad Wilt got a 2nd Ring too. For he or Peyton to only have 1 Ring would've been just silly! Here are some talked about Superstars records in Finals that have been impressive:
1. Bill Russell 11-1
2. Michael Jordan 6-0
3. Tim Duncan 5-1
4. Kobe Bryant 5-2
- when these guys get there they usually win!

Others that are at least above .500:
Cap 6-4 - Probably belongs with the other players but I kept that for players that have won at least 5 with only 2 losses or less.
Magic 5-4
Shaq 4-2
Bird 3-2
Wade 3-2* same as Bird

I cant wait for this Warriors/Thunder game tonight. I expect this to be the best game of the series.

Klay Thompson is having one hell of a series. Why didn't he come to L.A.? I'm sure that his dad told him to come to The Lakers

This game is going down to the wire. If OKC loses tonight then they're done.

What a game! Klay saved the day. This series has been outstanding. Glad I am off Monday night so I can kick back and watch it.
