OKC takes out San Antonio in 6 games.

Whoever comes out of the East is gonna have their hands full.


Yeah, that epic run deteriorated fast for the Spurs. It hurts. But at least they went down to OKC and not some clown team/city like the LA. If there's a changing of the guard in the west I hope it involves OKC. UT fans always give it up for Durant, who is one of the best players in the league now.

Looks like it might be Miami in 5.

They're in full control with a 3-1 lead in the series.

harden is incredibly frustrating to watch. it's gotten to the point that miami lets him take shots without defending him because he has zero confidence, but because of his potential brooks gives him a ton of minutes. can't make layups or open jumpers, and misses a good amount of free throws as well. durant is also becoming super passive in the fourth. with lebron out in the final minutes he didn't take advantage and become aggressive. this series isn't over yet, but 3 straight is going to be next to impossible the way the thunder are playing.

Harden has been a stud except game 4.

Don't know if this is sarcasm on not, but you have a very loose definition of stud. 5/21/9/8 points scored during 4 games while shooting 40% is not very studdish. He averaged less than 25% shooting in games 1, 3, and 4.

Since he is the third option I'd say that's pretty good.

He was the third option durin the regular season and he averaged close to 17 points per game. Had him on my fantasy basketball team and he was a stud, averaging basically 17/4/4 with 50%/40%/85% efficiency splits. He's been awful during the finals though.
