There is no way of answering that question so why keep harping on it?

Like, seriously, look at Lebron's numbers these playoffs -- Averaging over 30 points and 10 boards and 5 assists. Now imagine if he got to play against the powderpuff Western conference defenses instead of the damn Celtics and Pacers.

I seriously cannot believe someone is saying this. You are talking like every stereotype of a bitter fan. You've blamed refs, scheduling, and even used the fact that OKC played worse (IE: OKC made too many mistakes) as an indictment of the Heat.

edit: I'm done. Let someone else talk some sense into you because it's 4 AM for me and I'm not gonna waste my morning convincing someone who's just making stuff up and postulating out of his rear.


Powder puff west 10-3 in the last 13 years. OKC was definitely frustrated by the calls, Scott Brooks choked in the finals and so did James Harden yet they still could have won. Again Heat don't get a ring if they play in the west the east has been a joke since MJ.

Let's agree to disagree on this one and move on.

I'm still trying to find footage of what Scott Brooks said in their final huddle.

So does OKC make a move to bring PHIL back to the NBA or give Brooks the contract he wants?

Congrats to the Heat.. I'm really bitter to admit it because I said and believed Heat would not win the title this year. And for them to destroy OKC is just.. can't really put it to words. Congrats to the Heat fans again I guess.

Really funny to see, how mad you OKC fans are, just admit, that heat played better. It is immature to act like you do.

"Shane Battier's effective FG% for The Finals: 85.5%."


Damn, told you he was the best free agent pickup of this year, that has to be a record.

Scott Brooks not informing his team about the situation? BAD. Slowing down the offense on a night when Westbrook was unstoppable RINGLESS.

By all reports, Scott Brooks and his assistants both informed everyone and had all the players look at the shot clock during the jump ball preparation. This is further held up by Westbrook saying it was miscommunication on his part. It was a dumb gut decision, not a coaching error.

Lol English press are funny. Led with the story "King Lebron James" had to chuckle! Gz to the heat, well deserved this time. Miller making 7 out of 8 3 point attempts was nice too.

Yes but did they inform that it resets to 5 if Miami wins the jump ball. No so stop with the gif

Yes, they did. That's why they showed the shotclock to the players: Because the shotclock on the court was set at 5, (and would swap to off if OKC got possession). Scott Brooks isn't the greatest coach in the league but that blunder is purely on Westbrook's shoulders, not his. He and his staff informed the team.

I didn't even post the gif. You are, again, talking out of your ass about something you're mad about and asigning blame where it doesn't belong.

Well, congrats to Miami for the win. Lebron finally wins his NBA title, after so many years.

Miami only gets 5 on the shot if they win the jump ball. To not inform your players of that is a mistake. Westbrook thought the clock reset and went back to 24
