Who will win the NBA Finals and in how many games?

Russell Westbrook has the game of his life and one of the all time great NBA Finals performances, in spite of his teammates sans KD deciding to vacation in Miami instead of playing basketball. And idiots are saying he lost the game for his team because of a single boneheaded foul

I think Westbrook gets scapegoated for these Thunder losses because KD is so universally loved. Sports fans and analysts have this inexplicable urge to find someone to place blame on, and he is off limits, so the finger gets pointed at his #2. Sometimes a very good team just gets outplayed by another good team. No blame needed.

You can pin the OKC losing this series on the over rated James Harden. Dude is diong what Lebron used to do before he changes this series and playing like crap now that his team needs him the most. I bet some team is really glad they saw this as to not over pay him in a huge near max contract next year. Something tells me he still might get one.

Durant is getting into foul trouble and still playing efficiently. he's not doing as good as Westbrook but he's not bad either. If you were to point fingers, the best candidates are Scott Brooks and james harden.

Credit to Lebron, he is playing great basketball.

Well, at least it's not the Lakers.

I'm from Ohio. But I don't care about Lebron leaving Cleveland. What I (sort of) care about is setting up this "super team" with people taking pay cuts to try to ensure they have the best team. Feels cheap (though not necessarily wrong). But really, everyone else is free to do the same, so whatever.

Having said that I'm glad Lebron got a ring, so now everyone can shut the fuck up. I mean, really, it's like it was a competition for who could be the bigger douchebags: the haters, or the hater haters. (In general, I'm sure the haters win easily. Where I work, it's a dead heat.)

Credit Lebron for finally learning post-up moves that people have been clamouring for him to develop since he entered the league. Who better to teach him than The Dream? Without that in his repertoire, the Finals would have been a much different story.

Mark Cuban DESTROYS Skip Bayless, along with a solid column on why Bayless is a fucking disgrace to the field of sports journalism.

Mark Cuban is so awesome. Skip's rebuttals are hilarious considering he's even admitted he doesn't watch the games.

Cuban: "Hey Skip, why do you play zone?"
Skip: "Derp. Lebron didn't slash you guys up"
Cuban: "Hey Skip, why do you play zone?"
Skip: "Derrrrrrrrrrrrrrrp."

Side note to the Finals: Juwan Howard is the only member of the Fab Five with a ring. About damn time.
