Yes. Kobe passed the torch to him last series.

The torch should belong to LeBron but he doesn't want it.

We shall see. Lots of BBall to play. Right now Bron Bron and Durant are pretty equal this playoffs.

Chuck is right. Ibaka is wicked man.

Ibaka, Perkins and Collison combined for 22 of 25 shooting. That's 88%! That was huge especially considering Westbrook and Hardin didn't shoot well tonight.

I love LeBron. I think he's the best player in the NBA, but he's too passive. He just isn't clutch to me.
 
Either way this goes... as with the other series...

Officiating is just gotten intolerable...

The NBA thinks they should put it out in the open and we can get away with it... wag the dog theory...

It's why the NBA is a joke these days... The NBA should rename themselves the WWENBA... it's gotten that bad...

As a purist fan growing up, it's hard to watch this product today... legal shifts... three steps... phantom falls... the whole product sucks...
 
I'll preface this by saying it has had no bearing on the outcomes of games, but the missed goal tends are ridiculous. Thats about five this series.

Durant is a freak. Its a crime that he doesn't shoot 30+ times a game. He easily averages 40+ if he does. Ibaka was amazing, as were all the bigs. OKC, assuming they can resign everyone, is going to own the league soon.

Player wise, I think a Westbrook for Rondo trade would help both teams. Boston gets a young gun in the D Rose mold to build around with the big 3 winding down. OKC gets a pure PG who can fill it up if he needs to, and Durant gets about 7 more shots a game. Just spitballing ideas.

I'm not sure they're gonna be able to resign everybody due to Perkins massive contract. They're probably gonna have to amnesty him to have enough room to resign Harden and Ibaka.
 
Ibakais like Tyson Chandler on steroids. And he has a wicked offensive game. I wish Mavs could get him. Dudes a straight baller.

Ibaka has been ballin the whole postseason. Did a great job defensively on Dirk, Pau, and Duncan and has provided timely offense.
 
That last pass by Rondo was beyond incredible. He continues to play incredible basketball in the playoffs. This guy is as good as any point guard in the NBA right now.

I agree.
 
Officiating is brutal. Phantom calls everywhere.

Stern wants long series, as always. I didn't think that there was a "fix"......but man. This is just comically bad.
