The Thunder held an "open forum" in their off day, down just 2-1? What the hell? Seems a bit early to blow that wad.

He would win them a game, but Dirk would win us 3 and Westbrook would win us the 4th.

Tru nuff.
Regardless, like has been said, OKC needs to win this one. I want this one going 7.

Do we really want all that rest? We are pretty hot right now, I don't know if I want us cooling off too much. 6 games seems like the right length for this series to me.

Same here. Memphis doesn't have any prolific perimeter scorers that can light up the Mavs' defense. OKC has two.

Wow.. TC/Haywood/Dirk would kill the boards against this OKC team, though.

For our team, with our point guard, I'll err on the side of taking the extra days. But it's a good argument either way re: rest versus rust.
I also like the benefit of these two teams having another game to beat each other up. Memphis is pretty physical. It wears on both them and their opponents, so I think the more games the better.

Hmmm neither of these two teams looks unbeatable. I'm not saying either will be a pushover, but the Mavs ain't no cupcake either. Plus, I like the fact that the Mavs will get a chance to play a lower seed in a big series. To be a champion you have to be able win as the favorite at some point. As much as people have been talking about match ups, I like to think the Mavs might give either of these teams some matchup problems of their own.

You get down 3-1 and it won't seem early. It will seem very, very late.

We'll see if they try to do it again when they're down 3-1 to the Mavs.

Give me all the rest we can get. Kidd was insane in the first couple games against Portland after his rest, although he did play the game before.
I dunno... Dirk practices reallllly hard and I think Rick will run them hard before the series. An extra day of rest could mean the world for Kidd.

I feel like the Thunder shove in the back on nearly every rebound attempt.

I thought the same thing. Perkins especially has gotten away with it on nearly every possession.

Yeah I thought that was Perkins I saw on the last two, but I couldn't tell for sure on my crappy internet feed.

Perkins sure as hell does. And I hate his constant "I'm pissed off!" scowl.

If Durant doesn't touch the ball on this possession, he might ask that Westbrook be benched for the rest of the season.

Part of the reason that I just don't fear that guy "torching" us. If he wants to play playoff hero against us, I'll let him.

Serious question:
Why is Russell Westbrook such a dumbass?
