He is, but OKC should not have gone 2-6 in the playoffs after Westbrook went out. Should have at least played .500 ball. They had trouble against Houston without Westbrook.

I totally saw Memphis giving OKC trouble considering they are a talented defensive team and only needed to disrupt Durant. I thought Durant was long enough to beat the pressure with jump shots.

The struggle against Houston was impressive. Houston has a nice core and I see them being very competitive for several years.

Glad NYK won a game. Miami needs as much rest as possible.

Don't they have to wait til the Western semis are finished before they start the eastern conference finals?

No.

Series against Memphis is gonna be a bruiser. Remembered the last time they played and it was rough. SA better be ready to push back or we will get beat. Manu needs to find a little better bounce. His drive to the left has been flat. Gonna need to find a way to lock down Z.

At least they don't have Battier this time...dude was hot on the 3's a couple years ago.

I think Corey Joseph and Patty Mills may be able to keep up with Conley's quicks. Hell, Tony Parker has also played some very solid defense but Conley may be a little too quick for him. Could also benefit us to put Green on him and force him to stay outside.

Tiago Splitter better be f**ken ready!! If he's not, he's gonna get raped.

I know this is older than boast, but did New Orleans really change their name to the f**king Pelicans?

I don't think people will get used to calling them the pelicans. Their name will be a joke around the league lol. I don't know who the hell picked that name.

The local community picked the name. It's their state bird and it won the poll by a fair margin, IIRC.

It's a gulf coast thang. It's still a stupid name though. Very minor league.

I like the Spurs as a very small favorite over Memphis.
