Doesn't excuse the OT performance, but that ball going to GS with 16 seconds left in regulation when it was out on Bogut was enormous.

Our guys upstairs have to catch that a little quicker so Pop can get a review.

Obviously I hate losing, but not really too upset...we just missed shots..

3 game series...2 at home...lets get it.

This series really reminds me off the Spurs and Hornets series a few yeara back with Chris Paul‘s big coming out playoff run.

I agree with you. And IMO it wasn't like it wasn't obvious.

Free Throws killed the Spurs as well. It's gotta be a little concerning that the Warriors won with not shooting well at all though.

Re: Western Conference Semifinals Discussion Thread

Brooks' luck may be running out although I remember reading that management loved him. But with these high expectations every year I feel like he'll be on the hot seat eventually

I feel like with him being in a small market like OKC, that alone buys him more time than it would anywhere else. Unless, he loses his team and they start tuning him out, which at that point you'd be left with no other choice.

This series would've been better had it been OKC v GS and SAS v MEM

I'm the opposite, actually in that I think this has been an entertaining series, especially after Games' 1 and 2.

Oh and I can do with Bill Walton and his random *** facts he pulls out. I have no interest in hearing how the whispering trees of Portland, Oregon just jumped for joy because the Spurs lost to the Warriors.

SA shot even worse, though.

FT's were the difference--other key factors that led to the collapse were having Neal guard Jack late as Jack caught fire and Duncan trying to go hero mode against Bogut who was just moving him wherever he wanted.

The end of the games might've been but they games as a whole have not been that exciting.

Leaving shooters wide open on purpose most of the game isnt exciting either..but I just feel like the other two teams would've been better matchups. This small ball stuff hopefully doesn't become a trend.

Be real...you know you want a Memphis/Golden St Conference Finals, don't you?

Because it would go exactly against what your boy Stern wants to see.

Re: Western Conference Semifinals Discussion Thread

It really doesn't matter to me to be honest at this point.

I dont care what David Stern wants.. he can go somewhere and retire right now.

They do need get off of the same three team advertisement and support campaign though

Re: Western Conference Semifinals Discussion Thread

I missed the second half to go to Mother's Day dinner and planned on watching it when I got home, but I saw the final score and I'm not having any of that.

Oh well, I had just hoped to split in Golden State, anyways, so I'll take it. 2-2 with two home games left. Golden State's backcourt has been neutralized for the past two games, basically.

It sucks to blow a game and lose in OT, though, and things looked good when I left at halftime.
