You mean the same heat fans that left the arena early?

In recent memory, from a pure entertainment basis, even though I hated em at the time, I gotta give it to Heat/Spurs 1

Are we talking about level of play or fans? If we're talking about level of play then yeah clearly that series was much better. 2015 Spurs/Clippers was probably even better than that series

Yeah anyone who say this series was better than 2013 Heat/Spurs is pretty stupid. Spurs/Clippers was really good as well but that series being played in round 1 kind of hurt it

Misunderstood. If we're talking about strictly crowd atmosphere then you're correct

If it was overall conpetitiveness in the series then I would agree with you as well.

Err....nobody knew what these two were capable of in the league when they were drafted. They could have busted like so many others have.
Durant was a Nowitzki clone but considerably lighter.
Westbrook was a Rose clone but a little faster.
I like to think they have developed with the help of the Thunder staff.
I hope we can all agree that Sam Presti is the Chris Petersen of the NBA. Doing a lot with a small market team that doesn't have the money or attraction of your NYs and LAs.

There are some decent players in that bunch, quite a few stinkers, and at least three big time scores.

There were so many different dynamics to that series that made it legendary

Hey, you can't rip joy from folks. They deserve to party. There were several times throughout the game when the dubs would get a bucket to push the lead out to 4 or so and you would have thought that Curry had just cut off Durant's head with a katana with the way the crowd went batshithouserat cray cray.

And at the end of the day Westbrook and Durant keep the motor running. OKC is a fortunate fan base that has yet to endure mediocrity. It's not ridiculous to say they are a tad spoiled.
Also I knew Portland should have taken Durant #1 overall. Westbrook was more of a question mark.

The ONE big mistake he made was giving Kendrick Perkins all of that money

Agreed.
Like I said, as long as we have Presti I would like to think that he will only continue to find those rare talents.
