But OKC was up 3-1 and were playing great this series, I thought they were going to win guys ?

How can you question a historically great team so easily, don't do it again

because it only has happened 9 times out of 233 chances (<4% of the time) and OKC had embarrassed the Warriors in OKC the past two games. Odds were v. high that OKC would win it all, but if any team could come back from 3-1 to win its this Warriors team.

Pumped for the game tonight.

It'll be interesting to see how Thunder rebound after a demoralizing loss. They were pretty bad down the stretch. They went away from their offense and resorted to iso-ball and more poor decisions with the ball. It may be too late but Thunder have to got to get more minutes out of players like Waiters and Kanter so that KD and RW aren't totally exhausted.

Most think that they needed to wrap it up at home. While that may be true, you can't count them out yet. Durant steps it up in game 7s.

Great quarter. KD has had a very efficient quarter and Adams is working very hard.

That Curry 3....wow

[Goondal]

Klay heating up

[HeatCheck]

Yes he is.

This 2nd quarter looking very similar to game 6. OKC's failure to close out the 2nd quarter last game came back to haunt them. Hopefully it doesn't do the same here.

As I'm typing this, OKC making a run.

[HeatCheck]

Holy...

Adams and Green tangled up. I think Green deserved that as he pulled Adams down.

[HeatCheck]

Back to back difficult finishes by Westbrook and Curry to end the quarter. OKC did a slightly better job finishing that half than they did in game 6.

Adams making a big impact on the boards and Kanter is playing well, surprisingly. GS not getting much out of anyone besides the Splash Bros. Not over as they can catch fire at any moment.

Durant need to be more aggressive

[Goondal]

Third quarter went very well, now they just need to finish.  Crunch time for the league's premiere duo.

[Goondal]

Thunder finally hit from three, Curry immediately erases it.

This game...

KD is gonna run to the east

He would be stupid not to

[HeatCheck]

This is what KD should have done earlier. He was too passive in the first half and needed to get into groove like this.
