NBA Playoffs 2012 Running thread

Forgot to add, I'm picking Oklahoma City to win the title.

Will like that pick once Russell Westbrook figures out where the basket is.

Wow. Miami is 7-for-11 on 3s and only up 3.

If only Booby Valentine could coach the Heat.

OKC making a run end of three-start of four. This is what I like about NBA basketball – lots of action, lots of points.

This thread is adversely affected by what appears to be a posters lockout.

The Lakers said it.
The Spurs said it.
I think the Heat are starting to see it.
OKC just has another gear, and when they shift into it it's hard to keep up.

Yup. As they say in another sport: These guys are good.

Fun to watch. Easy to embrace.

Can you have a quiet 30?

Certainly doesn't help when the Heat settle for jumpers in a stagnant offense.

James and Wade play with a sense of entitlement rather than desire

James went to the basket when it mattered, when the game was still in reach. Wade seems to be trying to shoot himself into a rhythm with long jumpers.

I don't know if that means playing with entitlement.

If you don't show up in the fourth quarter you can.
