Durant is not the man.

I will take Westbrook before I take Durant.

Durant cannot carry a team on his back for 5 minutes and will that team to victory.
i mean Durant still might win the title.  He's still the ultimate pipedream for the Celtics this summer.

In G6 RW had TWO major flops (in whole game) and THREE turnovers in last two minutes of the game.

Also KD had TWO turnovers in last two minutes.

Yes, GS is a two man's team but unlike OKC they are involving their teammates with purpose, unlike RW and KD who are doing that only by accident - mostly by missing shots.

GS is playing more team basketball and thats why they should advance. And because they can beat CLE (OKC can't beat them).

Gotta say this is probably true. OKC tends to self-destruct whether within a game or in a series like this one.

That said, I was watching and actually hoping OKC would win.  That was their moment and true champions don't lose a game in the last 5 minutes after maintaining a lead for essentially the entire game. Now I really doubt they win g7.

Donovan is slaw as a coach.  There's no offensive system at all.  All they do is take turns running isos while Adams crashes the glass and Ibaka and Roberson space. 

Westbrook and Durant are both struggling from the field, but this coach is doing nothing to try to get them some easier looks.  I would LOVE to see what Stevens could do with Durant.

If OKC gets eliminated in the end, Donovan is the last person I would blame.

OKC has honestly very little chance of winning game 7.

Even if GSW has 90% chances of winning, this is far from being over.

I mean, If someone told you a lottery ticket has a 10% chance of winning you wouldn't throw it away, would you?

My dad hates the Warriors.  He calls it "Home Run Derby Basketball".

OKC already looking 100x better than they did for the vast majority of Game 6, shots aren't really falling, but ball movement has been fantastic early on.

not really.  They still lack size.  If the circus shots don't fall, they will lose.
