June 20, 201214 yr Miami is playing as a team that wants it altogether way more. How does one judge that?
June 20, 201214 yr How does one judge that? Kind of like when Digger says "they are on a mission" during the NCAA. Aren't all the teams on a mission?
June 20, 201214 yr Mario picked up a new middle name from DWade tonight. :lol: :lol: :lol: Good stuff. Live action.
June 20, 201214 yr I have been surprised by several things in this series - Miami's 4-8 outplaying OKC's 4-8; Harden's play; the number of wide open looks the Heat seem to be getting every game; the lack of intensity from OKC; the number of high school level mistakes the Thunder seem to make in every game. Bottom line - the Thunder are playing like young, first time finals players.
June 20, 201214 yr How does one judge that? I agree with hrcarrier. How do you judge it? How many times have the Thunder been beat down the floor in transition? How many wide open looks are the Heat getting on the offensive end? Those are effort and intensity plays and the Heat are crushing the Thunder in that category.
June 20, 201214 yr Winning the Finals has always been a process. Always. It's hard for a young, inexperienced team to defeat a team that is experienced and in the Finals for the second year in a row. That's asking a lot.
June 20, 201214 yr Author How much money has Harden cost himself during the Finals? Clearly in over his head.
June 20, 201214 yr Winning the Finals has always been a process. Always. It's hard for a young, inexperienced team to defeat a team that is experienced and in the Finals for the second year in a row. That's asking a lot. It is. It seems like in history of the NBA teams have to lose one to get one.
June 20, 201214 yr How much money has Harden cost himself during the Finals? Clearly in over his head. He has been terrible. Hate to blame one player but he clearly has underperformed in this series.
June 20, 201214 yr Author It is. It seems like in history of the NBA teams have to lose one to get one. Very very rarely does a team skip that step.
June 20, 201214 yr How much money has Harden cost himself during the Finals? Clearly in over his head. HT, Ramon Sessions opted out of his contract. Unrestricted free agent. Figured you'd want to know. Yes....Harden is losing money as I type.
June 20, 201214 yr Very very rarely does a team skip that step. They may not not get to the finals but it takes multiple years to get that title.
June 20, 201214 yr Author HT, Ramon Sessions opted out of his contract. Unrestricted free agent. Figured you'd want to know. Yes....Harden is losing money as I type. Yeh I saw that. Good, bring in Deron and trade Pau.
June 20, 201214 yr It's a true shame for Westbrook to play such a phenominal game and have it head with a ridiculous decision. You have to know your surroundings at all times, but x10 at the end of a game. There really is no excuse for that mental lapse. I bet he doesn't make that mistake again. Either way, what a performance. Clyde and PP92 touched on it, but I couldn't believe the amount of foul language I heard last night. Whether it was DWade, or when Lebron was cramping, so some random guy saying BS in the background. Don't they show these games on like a five second delay? They might need a new "bleeper". I wonder how much that pays because I think I could handle it. BTW, I'm not offended in the least, it just surprised me.
