1-When will some men realize arguing with a female is a futile endeavor?

2-The Thunder are in full control of this series now.....that was an amazing performance the other day.

I won't count out the Warriors just yet, game 4 is a must win for them though... OKC is proving to be a tough match-up for them.... This Warriors team seems to respond well when they're in a hole... So the next game will be a HUGE indication of what happens the rest of the way....

Yeah, that's thing with the Warriors...as someone else pointed out, it's not the first time they've been down 2-1 in a series.

The Dubs are looking really bad but I won't count them out until they have 4 losses. They are capable of getting their act together, even if down 3-1

If the Warriors win game 4, the series will be tied and the Warriors will have gained HCA back. As has been said repeatedly, this series will likely go at a minimum 6 games.

Warriors have big problems with Green facing likely suspension for kicking Adams in his unit.

Waiters travels almost every drive

adams & kanter do major pivot foot shuffling nearly every time they touch the ball....but who cares...obviously the refs are way too busy looking for things like little itty bitty touch fouls.....:D

does anyone think OKC can beat the Cavs. I dont know how they match up with them. I always felt Spurs and GS would beat the Cavs and that the Cavs best chance would be against Clippers and OKC if they made it.

Now that we are seeing a different OKC team I still like Cavs chances against them. OKC is peaking right now.

I agree Big time. Kind of like last year when they were down 2-1 to memphis, they turned it on and Boom, They were down 2-1 to the Cavs and then blew them out 3 games in a row to win the championship.

OKC is much better than both of those teams

Im going to take your insight on this because you were right about this series. There is just something i dont like about this OKC team. I just have a feeling that even if they beat GS they would struggle against LBJ and the Cavs. Durant struggles against LBJ. In 16 games LBJ is 13-3 against KD and OKC.

See how LeBron James and Kevin Durant stack up head-to-head

I agree but my thinking is if you're able to beat both San Antonio and GSW without HCA, you should be able to beat the Cavs without HCA. The momentum from those series win (if they win this series) should be enough to beat Cleveland

I didn't think so before the playoffs started, but they seem to be a team that is peaking at exactly the right time. They also happen to be the team with the most talent and they are playing angry, like they have something to prove. That makes them very dangerous.

Agreed.... 3-1 is tough though, that's not a hole they want to face, all it takes is one off game and that's it... They want game 4 for sure... tie it back up and go back home ...

This certainly doesn't look like the '12 Thunder. We'll see if they can keep it going.

It won't end well for the Dubs if it goes six, but if it gets to game seven, they have a decent shot.
