Oklahoma City Thunder, true champions!

Once again James was invisible in the fourth while Kevin Durant and Russel Westbrook took over.

Miami drives to the hoop = Heat win.

Miami settles for jumpers = Thunder win.

This series, while interesting, is not that complicated. If the Thunder can force the Heat into jumpers, or if the Heat themselves settle - which they do at times - the Thunder will win the series. But anyone ruling the Heat out is crazy. When they penetrate, they are impossible to defend.

Only way the Heat can win is if lebron plays every minute of every game. If the Thunder start whacking him he might not last at peak efficiency without resting.

Super first 1/4 by the Heat. Everything that could go right did.

Well, that was similar to the first half of game 1. The difference being the Heat D was a little better and the Thunder shooting was a little worse. Miami controlled the paint. Set up for a band stand 2nd.
