Celtics vs. Heat Game 7 open thread

by Royce Young on June 9, 2012 at 7:15 pm 686 Comments

Who’s it gonna be?

The Thunder will have an opponent by the end of tonight. There are pros and cons to both the Heat and Celtics, but it’s out of anyone’s control. It’s just going to be who it’s going to be. Whether it’s the Celtics or it’s the Heat, the Thunder can’t expect to cruise to an NBA title. Both teams present hurdles, both teams will be a challenge.

Either way, at least we can stop talking about who in a few hours and get on with talking about what the Thunder have to do to bring home a trophy.

guys, I have some incredible friends.  I wasn't able to get a ticket, and I wasn't gonna pay the outrageous prices that are on ticketmaster/stubhub.  so, my friends tonight ask me if was going to the game. I said no, they said "hey. you can use our 2nd ticket!"  WOWOWOWOW.  I'm going to Game 1 lower level. 

 

So blessed.

10 years ago, I never thought I'd hear "Oklahoma City" and "NBA Finals" in the same sentence. This such a blessing. Lets make the most of it.

@C-Wil I was a diehard Spurs guy 5-yrs ago but now I could care less about them. Funny how getting a team in your hometown changes that.

 @C-Wil It still feels surreal to me!  In Ohio people who don't even follow the NBA are starting to know a little something about this team. I love it!   Fans are everywhere as well.. I just moved here two years ago from OK.   The exposure has been so awesome.

Lebron-wade at this stage are a better tandem than durant-westbrook, but there is any doubt we have a better team? Lets see what wins out.

Miami Game 5 there were 1600 tickets available from the ticket office the day of the game. Lots of Heat fans though. smh

If LeBron and Wade left the floor without shaking hands, everybody would be going crazy about how rude they are.

How healthy is Wade, really?  And Bosh?  Heat need them 100% to have a shot.  Heat will have the advantage of being here before, I think we might be in danger of dropping game one if the nerves aren't settled, and that would be trouble because of the 2-3-2 format.  I wouldn't underestimate the Heat.  They play better defense than any of the teams we faced except maybe Dallas.  I think we win the series in six games though.

 @justin_mia Great perimeter defense. Poor interior defense. That's why they won the second game when our bigs didn't contribute and KD and Russ had to do everything.
