I'm actually pretty surprised at the heat. I really thought chicago's bench would be the difference, by they've been throughly outplayed by the HEAT bench in all of their wins. Gibson had one good game, Asik got hurt, Ashton Kutcher can't hit a shot to save his life. At this rate they might as well play Kurt Thomas to rough some guys up, and maybe Sual can get hot (at least hotter than korver). Mike Miller w/ a +/- of like +36 or something? Usually I don't look too much at that, but he was playing all the crunchtime minutes.

Welcome back Mike Miller. Glad to see our key bench players are playing and improving. He should have kids more often because he hasn't slept much this week since his daughter was born. Another great OT for Miami. Glad to see our guys' confidence continue to grow late in games. @ Barkley sucks chants at the end of the game.

And if anyone can help us find Korver's shooting stroke, please send a note to Chicago...

Thunder have nothing to be ashamed about. Time's on their side, young as they are. Now that they have a real taste of the Playoffs, I can safely bet my CL-S that they'll dominate the West for the next 2-3 years. Spurs and Mavs will age another year, and I'm skeptical about LA's immediate success under Brown.
Bulls have only one real threat in the East, and they're playing that threat right now. Objectively speaking, I think they'll take one more win at home then fall in Miami.

Thoughts on trading Westbrook for either Chris Paul or Williams? Thoughts? Personally, I don't think Westbrook is a good fit on OKC. I don't think he'll ever develop into a true PG and his heart and instinct is always to attack first. Not very easy to change. Chris Paul with Durrant would be a killer combo IMO.

OK, come to terms with the loss now and remaining positive. I know the series is somewhat similar to OKC vs. Dallas with regards to being at a 3-1 position. Major difference is that game 5 is going to be in Chicago. We need to score better, maintain the same defense, and have the bench come up big. Maybe we'll see Kurt Thomas today and have him make some outside jumpers off the pick and role. I'm sure most of you heard by now that Asik is out with a broken Fibula. If we win tonight, we'll go into Miami with the momentum and all the pressure on Miami. If we look at this one game at a time, it's certainly conceivable we can steal game 6 in Miami, and then win it all in game 7 in Chicago. If this doesn't happen, then go Dallas!

But, I'd also like us to be the ones to give that loss as well.

He gets mad rebounds though and I like his slashing style. He lost his cool against Terry though when drawing the T. OKC is so young they gained valuable experience and will content in the West for years to come. If they had a little more veteran savvy, it would have helped staunch the bleeding in their last 2 late game collapses. Next year I think if they start Harden at #2 that will be a competitive backcourt.
