Old, and not enough of an inside presence on D to slow down OKC in the end.

The Spurs are awesome. They don't play like they're old. They just ran into an even better team. BTW, their big 3 has 36 years of experience while ours has 30. They're healthier and barely older than we are.

Durant will win more titles than LeBron

He should. He has a much better supporting cast.

I want this for the Knicks. Argh
VDesai @ 6/6/2012 11:43 PM
I would love to see how those Celtic fogeys combat the youthful Thunder. Rivers against Brooks- a classic clash of ex-NYK PGs?

And Durant isn't afraid to take the big shot.

Where did you pick up this worthless stat Combined years of experience you been using lately???

You know you are talking about 36 and 35 year old vets...................

I really wanted to see which old would prevail in Spurs vs. Celts


oh well.

VDesai @ 6/6/2012 11:47 PM
Thunder took out the guys with all the rings, back to back to back. Dallas, Lakers, Spurs....that is impressive. Kevin Durant, 23 years old....3 time scoring champ and soon to be NBA champ?

Dont like the Miami Heat
Dont care much for OKC

When you see the DJ Root for Boston Celtics something wrong. ( If Celts win they got little chance vs. OKC)
The hated Heat got better chance against the Thunder cause Dwayne Wade would shut down James Harden while
in basketball terms knock his arrse' around when Harden does them juke moves, just letting him know it aint
going to be easy.

But as a man, I'll congradulate them this yr. their entitled to NBA Finals 2011/12
CONGRADs OKC 2012 West Conf. Champions, no use here for my venom.

Sorry you're hearing a disgruntled Knick fan and my disdain got very little to do with Melo, Or Amare our knicks not being good enough
during this era. Do not blame everything wrong currently with Knickerbockers on Melo Anthony alone

Everyone outside of NY HATEs NewYork. No one respect the Knickerbockers, not David Sterns, nor NBA franchise owners and lot of it to do
with owner James Dolan. However Dolan isn't selling his team. So we're Knicks fans, we'll have a day in SUN to laugh back at the HATERs
the ESPN analyst, rest of NBA players whom use NY to drive up their salary demands and could care less about Knicks.

Knicks are one team in league which most want to beat more cause of NewYork.

However the young blood is here, The Best BIG 3' whomever that is will win a NBA Championship soon in under 1 month.
We'll deal with it...

David Sterns Go to exiled HELL!
on your hopeful ruling on the Larry-bird rights (vs Jeremy Lin , Novocaine)

Whenever Knicks get good to win NBA title
Sterns lets hope your office, NBA and your stinking crooked referrees can deal with it!

You're right. I forgot how much older they (except Tony) are. It's amazing when you take good care of your body, have the right attitude, and always play hard, how much younger you look. Carmelo and Amare could learn a lot from watching SAS.

Youth versus experience again. If its Celts/OKC it still should be a great series if the ECF doesn't take too much out of Boston. Being an old guy, I usually root for the vets but Durant is a class act and it will be nice to see a small market team win it all.

Not sure about that. They are both very close in experience and age with the exception of Rondo.

I'm talking about OKC vs. the Celts. OKC average age is 23, Celts is 29.

No problem. I hope the Celts can put away the Heat in Boston so they have some time to recover. I didn't feel that way earlier but you have to respect what these guys are doing when most people (including myself) didn't believe that they could go this far with their health issues. Great coaching and great teamwork.

Was rooting (very passively) for the Spurs. After watching the documentary SonicsGate (http://sonicsgate.com/) I gots no love for Clay Bennett and his team. It does feel weird wanting the Celtics to take it, like they need another banner, but it would makes my good buddy happy, so what the hell.

I feel pretty much the same. Since watching that a few years ago, I've never been able to root for the thunder. I feel really bad for seattle fans- they put up with years of c*** and just as they were about to turn things round, Bennett and stern stole their team.

Still shocked spurs are out- they had a historic collapse these last few games.

The defending champs - swept.
A storied franchise (15 championships) with one of the best players to ever play the game with two giants and a madman up front - gone 5.
A battle tested veteran team that hadn't lost a game since the beginning of April - a backdoor sweep in 6.

Maybe OKC is ready and it IS their time...? We'll see. There's been a lot of teams that have been riding a huge wave of momentum that end up not closing the deal and winning the title in the end.
