Finals thread.

Harden provides nothing when he doesn't hit shot.

Also, Durant only one rebound? Pathetic. Straight up pathetic.

There was an actual debate as to who was better between he and LeBron coming into this series.

It's not even close.

 

[zjcvols]

We'll see.

The Heat are going to win game 5. And even if they don't, OKC ain't beating them three straight times (as long as everyone is healthy).

I didn't believe so. LeBron is by far the best player in the league. Durant is a great player, but he's not LeBron.

 

[GahLee]

We'll see.

No team has ever came back from 3-1.

It may go 6 but OKC lost the series tonight.

 

[Vercingetorix]

This. How does a guy his size only get one rebound

I like Durant; he's the best pure scorer in the league; but boy is he a little soft.

The experience is just different. This Durants first time. Lebrons third.

i think that was only debated by the Lebron haters, nobody could truly believe that

 

[Il Principo]

so did he or did he not make the single mistake that cost okc the chance to win?

Again, haven't watched, just trying to confirm what I'm reading

No such thing as that single mistake.

He is by far the games best scorer but he is absolutely nowhere near the complete player that James is.

 

[GahLee]

Has nothing to do with experience.

Look at the rebounds and assists by both and then realize that James is either guarding Durant or Westbrook while Durant is guarding Chalmers or Battier.

How big was the three LeBron hit when he gimped back into the game for a minute? The Heaters were on the ropes until that shot.

imo Lebron is the best all around player ever, not the best, nobody will ever be better than MJ, but Lebron plays D, rebounds, passes great

Personally I think it's one of his biggest shots of his career.

 

[VolsByNature]

Serious question, for debate, not to argue. Could OKC play Lebron the way Heat were playing Durant and get away with it? Seemed like they were all over him tonight

Massive. He could barely walk. Also, the bucket right after he cramped up was huge.

fyp

Gave them the lead for good on half a leg.

Not clutch.

LeBron gets hit... hard... pretty much everytime he goes to the basket. Not sure what your point is.

You talking about strategically or does your question involve the refs?

Strategically they can't cause James is a physical specimen, being physical with him will get you nowhere.

Well in an attempt to keep the ball out of his hands, is where I was pointing.

 

[VolsFan4Ever-11]

No

Actually yes.

He absorbs contact as well as anyone, just cause he doesn't flail about doesn't mean the contact wasn't there.

I think we're saying the same thing here.

It's physical, Durant is doing just as much to get the ball as the Heat are trying to deny him.

Durant being a wing player and tryingvto get the ball 18 feet from the basket makes it look worse.

James is going through the same thing in the post but again, he is a physical specimen and Durant is a rail.
