    Harden, CP3 two of the all-time great floppers

    CP3 needed to create his own shot there.

    Paul and SGA wasted so much time and then it was just a great read from Harden to take the game away.

    Gallinari must be the easiest player in the league to guard. He moves like a cruise liner.

    Ironically it was horrible clutch time game management by OKC.

    They have a coach who did terrifically well to get them this far this year but is not a coach built for the playoffs.

    What was Donovan expecting Adams to do with the ball that far from the basket?

    he's been reading Raz's posts and expected a perfect jump shot

    @mariner4life what a "kick a man when he's down" guy.

    Christ on a bike that was a hard play to watch - Dort I mean. Easily the player of the game till that point.

    Doubt that was even the 5th option in Donovan’s playbook.

    SGA choked and could’ve made an earlier pass to someone else.

    Adams did the right thing given they were about to get a 5 second violation to actually come to the ball when the other options were stuffed.

    @raznomore can’t be too hard on Dort for that final play. It took a phenomenal block to get that. Harden does have athleticism. Dort had to rush it given the clock.

    And funnily Dort standing on the line actually gave them a chance to win the game. If it had gone the other way, no clock to foul and get ball back.

    Big move by GM Sean Marks and the Brooklyn Nets.

    Steve Nash is the new head coach of the Brooklyn Nets.

    I think it's a good move - Durant loves Nash from Nash's time consulting with the Golden State Warriors.

    Either way Nets are going to be a fascinating watch.

    @KiwiMurph Nash is potentially a Phil Jackson type coach. In demeanor, I mean as well as having some very left-field ideas.

    It will be interesting to see if he and Kyrie mesh.

    So the big take away from the OKC exit is that Adams is soft and overpaid. TBH in this series, he was bullied by PJ Tucker and he looked soft.

    Yes it hurt to write that.

    Apparently Kyrie and KD signed off on him, so you'd assume so. They could be anything next season.

    Adams doesn't seem cut out for the modern NBA. He's in the wrong era.

    The boy from Rotorua has that big contract fortunately

    For a guy with good size and bulk, who is mobile but not rapid, and has soft hands, I thought he would expand his offensive game but he hasn't. Didn’t help that Russ probably didn't leave him many touches. That slam at the start of G7 should have sparked him into a rampage against the Houston midgets. But no
