Idk, Thunder are looking to probably win this series and the Warriors are a far better team.

Warriors cut it to 2 in the second then Klay comes out due to fouls. Thunder outscore the Warriors by 17 the rest of the quarter.

The Thunder's starters are barely sitting. Warriors will have to do the same.

Need some better play from our centers. Bogut fouling too much. Ezeli missing free throws like its his job.

But for example, prior to this game, the Warriors were still favorites to win the series even being down 1-2. That doesn't happen unless you're substantially better.

P.S. why's everyone hating on IceMage what he's saying makes perfect sense.

That's not true. It's comforting to believe that the best team always wins, but there's a certain amount of uncertainty and luck that plays into every finals. Look at all the ridiculous game winners/savers that have happened. Big Shot Bob(Robert Horry), DFisher coming alive, Ray Allen hitting the 3 pointer against the Spurs, etc.



It's the closest we can get. That arguement holds true more for baseball i.e. Luck ect. But 7 games is the most logical way to choose a champion. Anything more or less wouldn't make sense.

Because if okc keeps playing at this level they'll beat the cavs easy

That's clearly true, but predicting the worse team to win (by your definition) doesn't make sense unless you're arguing a particular matchup is problematic, etc


Not really. They are both great teams, and with the knowledge that uncertainty and luck are involved, it makes a prediction incredibly hard to make.

he's not saying it should be reformed... he simply said the best team doesn't always win
