Westbrook & Durant are super-impressive. OKC just plays the Heat's game better than the Heat do. LeBron didn't play poorly, Wade didn't play well.

Spolestra has to find a way to slow down Westbrook. They didn't show they had anybody that could guard him last night. They may be best off sagging off him & giving him uncontested 20+ footers.

Sticking with my Thunder in 6 call.

The Heat remind me of those late 70s Sixers teams with Dr. J and McGinnis that never won a title. After they lost in the finals to Portland, their marketing caption for the next year was "We Owe You One." After another playoff debacle the next year, the fans were saying "You Owe Us Two!" :lol:

But that same squad won a decade later at the expense of the Lakers in '83.

Well the same franchise but hardly the same squad. Dr. J was the only common link between the 2 teams. You went from Henry Bibby & Doug Collins to Maurice Cheeks & Andrew Toney at guard. Swap George McGinnis for Bobby Jones and insert Moses "Fo-Fo-Fo" Malone at Center and yea, hardly the same squad, but the same small forward.

Andy your right every time they are counted out they win before game 6 vs Boston they were pronounced DOA by everyone and who came to the rescue LeBron's 45-15-5 effort in the Fleet Center.That place sounded like a empty stadium after that performance.

grizza,
I'm OK with Wade. He has earned all the respect that he gets. Unlike James and Bryant who were handed the keys before they did anything.

Kobe earned the keys after he went 0'fer in Utah in 97. Wade won with Shaq, just like Kobe did. Wade being with Lebron has turned into a bitch.
