KD becoming the best in the world, guarding LBJ and scoring 36. LOL Lebron guarding Perkins every time he was in the game

LeBron outscored both Wade and Bosh combined, pretty much all you need to know about why they lost.

EDIT: Great game by Durant and Westbrook though, really surprised that RW had 11 assists.

Ye, I think he interpreted your original post as claiming LBJ was killing Durant in terms of scoring/overall performance; and so he dug it up after the game to make fun of the post, even though he had the wrong idea of what you meant lol

Thunder looked in total control of the game by the 9 minute mark in the 4th lol
looked composed throughout the game, even when they were down pretty early
KD had 17 of his 36 in the 4th...showing up when it counts

The funny thing is even though LeBron had 30 himself it will be his fault to the media most likely even though Wade had 19 and Bosh had ten. If both of them score six more points each which they are completely capable of the Heat would have won by one.

Riiiiiiiiiiiight. You forgot that Battier had 17 when he averages 6. So... +12-11=+1.

It's not. Just saying going to be funny when the Media blames it on LeBron and not on the people who deserve the blame in Wade and Bosh.

I know Battier had probably what will have been his best game in this series, but just talking about this specific game and not what he normally does.

harden only had 5 using that logic you can add 10 points to harden and thunder come out on top in this hypothetical game.

OKC looked great today, but it's just Game 1 and all they did was hold their home court. Game 2 will be a better measure because there will definitely be adjustments by MIA. If they win Game 2 as well, then it's looking really bad for MIA because I don't see them winning 3 in a row vs the Thunder.

Agree with those saying that something significant must be wrong with Wade. He's sooo much better than what he showed today on both sides of the floor. Not surprised by Bosh's play, he's still not 100% and this is a very fast and athletic team he's facing with mobile bigs.

The problem for Miami is that they need LBJ + Wade to outperform Durant + Westbrook, since OKC's supporting cast is simply better. With Wade clearly hurt and Durant playing like a madman, this seems unlikely to happen.

I feel bad for LeBron for the first time in a long time. He will doubtlessly take the fall once again, but this one isn't his fault. He's better than Durant but not enough to overcome the difference in teammates at the moment.

Yes.

A few thoughts:

1. Miami can't win the series if they don't improve defensively, OKC is built for the 100+ point games, Miami's advantage is the defensive end.

2. Good god this series is going to be the floppiest we've seen in a while. Not just Battier/Fischer/Haslem flopping it up constantly on defense, but Westbrook/Wade/Lebron/Durant (KD to a lesser extent than the others) just baiting phantom fould and getting to the FT line.

3. Why can't the Heat run effective plays consistently? They do it in spurts, but for long stretches they just take jump shots. OKC also takes tons of jumpshots, but they are like wide open ~50% more than the Heat's jumpers. When Wade and Bosh aren't hitting contested shots (Lebron has gone android and makes everything even super shitty shots now) they go into an offensive funk.

I think Wade's age may really be getting to him. We've all heard reports about his knees and how he has to get it drained. Maybe he has been getting himself going by sheer force of will and has been hiding his pain very well? If it's not the knees then maybe it's just the age thing in general, but yeah, he really needs to step it up T_T

Congrats to the Thunder for the win in Game 1. Durant was one bad man in the 4th quarter.

Not really. More accurate description: Durant outplayed Lebron, Westbrook outplayed Wade. And anyone outplayed Bosh.
