I think Durant is gonna stay for one more year, granted I don't think they can beat the warriors in a 7 game series but beating the spurs like this is crazy.

Knicks had their chance in 94' but couldn't close out against the Dream.
He was FMVP for both, does Curry's chip count?
Two, but Kyrie and Love need one.
Thanks, Reggie.
Its a lot of players need a ring lol
I dont know why Kyrie and Love should be over them, they couldnt even get a team to the playoffs without LeBron lol

This was a surprise, I guess I overrated the Spurs and underrated the Thunder. Durant vs. Steph will be monumental tho, I want all shots to be weird ass long 3's from the team logo.

This loss fucking hurts. But I still have to respect the competitive rivalry this series has become. OKC got the best of us in 2010, we got them back in 2014 (Ibaka injury helped) and this is obviously their year. Just like in 2010 their athleticism this year overwhelmed us.
I know I've been a salty bitch, but TBH I have so much respect for KD's game. And while Russ does some really dumb shit his raw ability is fucking breathtaking. When he accelerates full speed towards the basket, it legit looks like a video glitch.
OKC vs GSW will be a great series. Best of luck to both teams. Lets have a completely injury-free series and have both teams leave everything on the court.

let's have a completely injury-free series, full of overtimes, that somehow ends with OKC in 6

I'm actually looking forward to Adams and Bogut fighting for boards.

If its Cavs-raptors too, oh man, best ECF and WCF in years.
SA and OKC are a couple of classy organizations. Great personnel (aside
from Russ and Manu lol, both can be so .....
Now let's hope these KD free agent rumours are put to rest.

I'm watching the rest of the playoffs for the playoffs now. Barring a random crazy heat/raptors run to the finals and beyond lol.
Shit, I hope Duncan stays for 1 more year.

No but that's because the three point shot is a gimmick used by hacks.

Can you imagine Curry going through KD and Lebron's team to win his 2nd ring?
Talk about validation. It will be his league without question if not already.

Westbrook only shot 38% against them for the series.

He was going to go to the Cavs, but they took too long to get back to him, so he took the sure thing in SA.

I know it has to be done but I'm not going to enjoy seeing the MJ crying face on Duncan.

I'm sure someone on the Raps RealGM already has it done. lol
Big mistake on his part, since there's no way he can get the same offer again after this. Can't blame him for trying to chase some rings though. Just chose the wrong team.

Fuck Paul Pierce.
I mean there is no guarantee any team he went to would 100% make it to the finals. If he wanted to go to a contender, Spurs are probably the 2nd best option to choose.
OKC-GS should be fun and I hope it goes the distant but I predict GS in 5.
Is the date set for the West Semi Finals? Game 1 is when? Or is it dependent on the EC wrapping up?

Honestly if you are coming off a big pay day, like you are turning 35+ you should sign 1 year deals and ring chase
Pierce the dummy is in LA for 2 more seasons unless he retires
had he signed a 1 year deal he could have bolted and joined the Celtics again

The Raptors have outlasted the Spurs in the playoffs lol. Unbelievable. So many fraud teams in the East.
Theres no way he wont be driven by that. Hoping he tries to outphysical him the whole series. And want to see some shootout between Durant and Curry. The Adams/Kanter vs Bogut/Dray is also a sneaky good matchup. Warriors just squash them on depth.
It was rumored that the Warriors were also after him. He should've chosen the defending champs if he intends to leave a lot of money for a higher chance at a ring.
Still, with the way Spurs finished the regular season and started the playoffs, I never even expect this to happen to them. Bad luck for him, I guess.
