I'm more pissed at the shyte Westbrook and Harden are gonna take (taking). 4th and 3rd year players.

Meanwhile, LeBron has been immune to any criticism, and anyone who ever criticized him is a "hater" and "doesn't appreciate his greatness."

BS.

Oh and my least favorite animals are zebras.

Theres gonna be people that flip that around and say he gets criticized too much, and "hater" has become one of the easiest labels to throw out there for athletes. Theres a huge difference between that and legitimate criticism, and if your not a hater you're an apologist or supporter. I recognize the poor decisions hes made in the past and why people still wont forgive him for that.I still appreciate what he does on the court every night. I still do get pissed when he settles for jumpers at times and his decision-making, but overall he has just been ridiculous for this playoff run.

Yeah there's no doubt. No one ever has doubted his skill.

I personally never hated the guy directly, just his passes (not ones w/ the bball) he got were ridiculous. His stupid "Decision" special really is what drove ppl to get on him so much, myself included. But this series he looks like he grown up and had a ton of class, espcially toward KD.

And as predicted, Westbrook/Harden are gettin shyte. Harden moreso. Umm this dude had a great year off the bench. He's only 22, chill out ppl.

The Thunder are a VERY young team that will be a serious title contender for years to come. The criticism is just a case of people feeling the need to blame someone. Yes Harden has a bad series but the Heat have a very good D and the only time fans should start showing concern for Harden is if he starts to regress next season. Him, KD, and Westbrook should all continue to get better.

This was a great series, and that feels weird to say since it was a 5 game series. It was so fun to watch some of the NBAs best go head-to-head and the Heat got incredible contributions from their role players. That was the difference in the series, along with the 3pt shooting.

Yeah I agree. It's just sad how OKC players have become whipping boys. I saw some ppl even call for Scott Brooks to be fired. Umm ok. W/e.

Next year should be even better, not just for OKC, but for the Eastern conference. If Indy resigns Hibbert, and Rose stays healthy...hello. Miami had a tough previous rounds as well. Each round they had to overcome defeat. I'm still not convinced they were hands down the best team in the playoffs. Everything went right for them, and that's fine. It happens.

I really did like the 66-game schedule. The NBA starting on Christmas day was just perfect. I dont think think they change it anytime soon tho.
