NBA Finals - Thunder vs Heat

[Yams]

I just don't see the Heat being much of a competition for the Thunder. The Thunder are just too good, in almost every position. If they play at eve 70% of the capacity they played the Spurs, they will win in 5, easily.

If D Wade and Lebron get hot you never know what could happen, Thunder are just the more complete team.

After watching them dismantle my beloved Spurs, instinct says they will destroy the Heat, but i got a feeling they may steal one of the first 2 in OKC, then it's a 7 game series. Personally i wish they would beat the Heat by 30 4 straight games, just don't see it being that easy.

i don't think the heat have a chance. like someone else mentioned....they are too good. okc is on top of their game. they handled a very good spurs team......well, very good. i don't see them hitting any bumps in the miami series.

Game 1 tonight, looking forward to it. And hopefully a Thunder victory!

Should be an interesting series....only thing against OKC is lack of experience in this setting. Otherwise, they have the talent. Durant offsets James, Westbrook offsets Wade, Ibaka offsets Bosh...and then you have Hardin for which the Heat has no answer.

Great matchups.

I love the hostility towards James..too arrogant, too this, too that, too much of a pre-madonna, etc, etc. If he was on "your team" you would love him and you would not hear the first word about arrogance, etc. Dude took less money to come to Miami, is the best team player in the league (too much of a team player in my opinion), has not gotten into any trouble that we know of, does not talk trash openly like others (aka Bryant, etc)--all this equates to arrogance and pre-madonna?
I will pick OKC in 6--not b/c I don't like James (I do like him as the best all around player in the NBA) but b/c Miami's "other" players are not very good (even Wade not doing much).

there is nothing arrogant about a 30 min show to state you are going to go play in miami. nope, your right.

[aaron9578]

One mistake and you are arrogant forever huh....wow....
It was a mistake and I would bet he would do it again is my guess. Someone arrogant IMHO would not take anything but the max contract (Lebron did not), would win a championship "by himself" and not ask for help (certainly did not do that, ask Kobe how that went for him when he nudged Shaq to the side), would shoot the ball every time b/c he can do it himself (Lebron gets judged for passing the ball too much), and would talk trash to anyone and everyone (yeah not seeing that too much --see Kobe, again for talking trash openly "he can not guard me")--just a few examples of him not being arrogant and these things happen every night but again that is my opinion. Cleveland certainly thought he was the greatest thing since sliced bread--he leaves "their team" and he is arrogant now.

Not 1, not 2, not 3,4,5, not 7 not 92 but 147 rings in 6 seasons.

Dude sweats arrogance. I believe websters actually have his picture under the word arrogance.

I dont want him on the spurs, while the best individual talent in the league I dont agree that he is a team player at all. Being a good passer doesn't make you a team player. If he was he would not have walked off and left his team hanging last year
