Not everyone was as wrong as Skip Bayless on this series. I replied right away to his silly tweet as it was clear after the San Antonio series that Oklahoma City was a team to be reckoned with.
Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook now have a team around them with some size, so OKC has length along with being perhaps the most athletic team in the NBA. Meanwhile, Steph Curry was awfully quiet for an MVP.
Let’s see what happens next. This should be a great series!
Look at that punch!
This altercation between Rougned Odor and Jose Bautista will be played over and over again for years. Bautista can be a bit of a punk, and he certainly got what he deserved after he tried to take out Odor with a hard slide. After the game he tried to say he didn’t try to hurt him and was just sending a message, but I’m sure Odor doesn’t give a damn about that. He pushed Bautista and then clocked him. Had it been in the ring it would have been a TKO!
With all the drama this season, many have assumed that the Cleveland Cavaliers will probably come up short in their quest for the first-ever NBA championship for the franchise this year, barring a monster performance from Lebron and some lucky breaks.
Well, that still may be true, but the sudden resurgence of Kyrie Irving plus the excellent play by Kevin Love may be changing that assessment.

Sports are meant to measure the physical fitness and skill of the players. That was their original purpose, and that should be their purpose today. But the widespread use of performance enhancers has made the competition unfair. Athletes training properly can lose to people who achieved their fitness through injecting or ingesting various drugs. Which is much like when you find the best online casinos in Canada and go for the jackpot, knowing the games are rigged – an uphill fight with a superior enemy.
