Maybe Top 15.

In the words on the great American philosoper Nasir bin Olu Dara Jones, "I don't know how to start this," but here goes. Yesterday was one of the more surreal days of my life. A lifelong friend of mine and his wife were in town from Nashville; huge Thunder fans and just had a second child. He desperately wanted to go to the game, but is a professional songwriter / musician, and didn't really have the scratch. Coming off one of the sicker 8 day PLO heaters of my life, I wanted to treat them to a game. Constantly checked CL and Stubhub all day for a set of 4 tickets, and around 4PM CST, I found a really nice set of lower level FT lines for sale for a reasonable price. Met this gentleman a few block from the arena, exchanged cash for tickets, and was on my way home to meet my party. An ominous feeling came over me the more I inspected the tickets, so I sent a picture to a friend that brokers tickets for a living and he confirmed what I suspected; 100% fake.

6PM. 2 hours until tipoff. My friend and his wife, along with my girlfriend arrived at my house roughly a mile from the arena. I hastily purchase a set of 4 Club Level Baseline on StubHub, and we're on our way. We do the usual pregame and head to the arena around 7:30. The Peake. Was. Lit. I've been to lot of big games in my life, and the intros / first few minutes of the game were some of the loudest and most intense crowd I can remember. Didn't last. The crowd was pretty awful past the 1st Q. At the end of the 1st, I went down to the resolution window at the Box Office to present the counterfeit tickets I bought. Apparently this gentleman had scammed approx. 16 people already, and the police were on hand to discuss it with me. They said they had arrested a guy selling the fake tickets, and asked if i wanted to walk a block from the arena and positively ID the guy. So I missed about half of the second quarter to walk to a police car and see the guy that had ripped me off a few hours prior. It was him. Filed a report, got a case #, and have a slight possibility of getting my money back later this week. Whee.

I think the exact play I arrived back in my seat was when Steph tripped over Bogut and OKC got called for a foul? I was still walking around in a haze. Seemed like OKC was primed to pull away any given possession of the 2nd Q, but GS had an answer every time. The half ended, and the arena had the appropriate uneasy feel for leading a closeout game. Turned out, the crowd was right. That shooting performance by Klay was special to watch. The 4th quarter was textbook regular season OKC isolation ball, and KD had about as bad a stretch as I could remember. Credit to Iggy. Credit to Klay. They showed up.

Not really sure how the game even close, given GS made 18 (LOL) more 3s than OKC. As someone that plays PLO for a living, I know how unforgiving variance can be. Bad time for KD to go 1/8 from deep. Bad time to give up a playoff record 11 3s to Klay. Credit where it's due. GS showed up and Russ / KD slanked in the 4th. Hope we at least get a competitive game Monday.

I'd personally take Adams over ~ half this list. Especially when you factor in upside.

7 seconds or less sexual offense

I got 5 guys (the top 4 and DAJ) I def take over. Horford, Marc, Dwight could be better, but all have question marks/are older. I would take Adams over them for the next 5 years for example.

The other names on the list are worse. He's top 10 right now at worst with upside

Not often that you get an athletic 5 as your glue guy

Not really a similar player but it's like the role Noah had

I was responding to top 5 center not upside.

So are people finally going to admit Klay is at least a top 3 shooter of all time?

The hyperbole for klay today has been strong. Stephen A Smith tweeted he's the best two way player in the game. Lol

Even by the standards of SAS and Skip, that is just about the hottest take ever.

Well I've said Klay > Kawhi before so I'm up there too

the best 2 way player is steph curry. they have an award for it. it's called mvp. he got all the votes.

okc

I only saw the last 5 minutes, but man, could Durant have played worse? Not passing, taking bad shots, getting stripped, just awful basketball from a top 5 player.

Agreed, but give some credit to Iggy, he played amazing D in the 4th.

Iggy is definitely a big game player. No wonder he hated Denver.

Uh, no. If mvp was for best 2 way player then Steve Nash for one would
never have won a mvp.

NOPE

Hahaha! SAS the master of hyperbole. Klay Thompson is "Dale Ellis 2016". Klay is just benefiting from playing in an era where it's accepted to shoot 20 3s in a game if you're feeling it and to shoot pull up 3s on fast breaks and insta-catch 3s 5 seconds into the shot clock. Dale is probably on ultra tilt that he didn't get to play in this present day NBA.

God you're the worst.

This ruling clearly demonstrates the lack of veracity in the 2 min review process. He got hit in the arm he was dribbling with ffs.

Scott Foster doing game 7. Have fun out there.
