Damn that sucks but it didn't look good when Beverly hit him. Westbrook was pissed too but the guys on TNT thought it was a clean play

It wasn't. It was bush league.

I've read it's only 2% which means he could be back in a few weeks. If they can get him back next series they may be alright.

I kind of do expect Perk to take a shot at him. That's what he does. Hopefully it results in a long suspension.

Looking at the birght side, I don't think we were beating the Heat this year regardless. So I don't want to rush him back. I think it's a good opportunity for Reggie to show his stuff, Ibaka to step up, and Martin to look for his own shots. Since I feel this teams window is better than next two years in the longrun it may be a positive. However, it still sucks.

I'm not going to whine about it because as I said we were due. We have gone a long time without any injury problems, and it's bound to happen eventually.

KD is going to have to become a little more selfish now.

This is where the Harden trade hurts. Reggie will be fine, but we all know Fisher isn't a real PG. Even Maynor is missed right now.

The West just opened up. However, lots of teams are dealing with injuries, it's part of the game. Honsetly, I have no idea how it's going to play out because their has never been a Thunder game without Russ. I still think we have talent to win it, but definately can't beat the Heat without him.

If Miami somehow gets knocked before the Finals I might shed tears.

Bummer of a day, but at least the Royals are in first place :)

I like the way Reggie has progressed. This is either goinng to earn or cost him a lot of money.

YESSIR. I was less worried about the Thunder this year due to the loss of Harden. This makes it even more likely that the Spurs are heading to the finals.

Okay, it's Spurs vs. Heat in the Finals. If they stay healthy, you can never count out a Pop coached team.

bullshit, he was playing tough. its just a freak accident. shit happens.

so what if they faked the time out and the defender gives up cause he "anticipated" a time out and Westbrook blows by him for an easy lay up?

Trading Harden and then Maynor assumes that injuries won't happen at PG. On a young developing team, that makes sense. On a team that should contend for the Finals, it reeks of arrogance.

Yeah, I'm sure Perk is going to "play tough" through at least one of the Rockets' knees. It'll be totally a good basketball play, though.

Since the Lakers don't have any point guards tonight, maybe we'll see those dominant LA big men that TheBadGuy was telling me about.

Actually, since about 2007 you can. Memphis/LAC in the finals if westbrook doesn't make it back. Still would take OKC over Spurs too, but then I'm a bit of a hater.

Celtics are definitely better without Rondo..jfc..:facepalm:

Went from going to the Eastern Conference Finals last year to being swept in the first round this year.

Let's go Warriors.

I know it is hard because they play different positions...

but if I had to choose between Duncan and Kobe in terms of who had a better NBA career...

I'm taking Duncan.
