Yeah this Thunder vs. Grizzlies series is the best so far in the playoffs. Can't wait for game 7 on sunday. I'm going for the Grizzlies, but which ever team wins I hope they advance to the finals afterwords.
Buh bye Grizz! Now: Time for a Red River Shootout like never before, on the world stage! Would make it even sweeter to beat Texas with the world watching (and even more painful if the Mavs get to the NBA Finals by beating us). GO THUNDER!
So who do you guys think will win the next two rounds and then eventually take the championship? Personally I think both the Mavs and the Heat will both move on. I'm still not convinced about the Bulls despite them being the number 1 seed in the East. The Mavs right now are just too much on fire in my opinion and I think with Dirks experience they will go all the way and get a championship.
I think the Mavs have the best shot at the championship, but the Heat and Bulls series should be a good one. I'm just not convinced that the OKC Thunder can beat the Mavs in a 7 game series.
This Miami/Bulls game is turning out to be a pretty good one thus far. The NBA is much more entertaining to watch when your not rooting for anyone in particular. Less heart attacks occur that way. EDIT: Bah, it ended up being a blowout. Although I enjoy watching Miami lose, it isn't nearly as entertaining as watching a heated and close match-up.
I am going to have to go with Bulls even though I have to admit that I havent payed much attention to them since the days of Jordan, Pippin and all them. I hope they go all the way.

Hell of a game tonight. OKC kept that pretty close but Mavs held the lead pretty much the entire game. Mavs have won 7 games in a row now. Pretty crazy.

So far its as i predicted. Mavs beating OKC and its looking like Heat may pull this off too. Still think it will be hard to take down the Mavs, but we will see. I know Lebron really wants that ring. lol I'm sure Dirk does too after all this time though.
Well, Thunder, to explain why your season is over, I'll turn it over to Indiana Pacer's great Reggie Miller who can best sum it up with a visual (He shoulda talked to Butler U at halftime of the National title game, made sure THIS didn't happen)... Oh, and Kevin, you are not WWE Champion, and you are not John Cena. We could C U when you did that title belt motion. So could the Mavs. It got them fired up to hand our a$$es to us the rest of the game and make a miracle comeback to go up 3-1 and finish us off yesterday. Other than this massively botched choke job of a Western Conference Final and losing to a Texas team, thank you for a wonderful season! Come back wiser and ready to bring the NBA Title to Oklahoma next year!
True Josh. The Mavs have always had a defense problem, but amazing offense. Miami is more well rounded, but a lot still depends on Lebron and Wade. Will be interesting to see if Miamis D can shut down the Mavs.
