And I may end up rooting for Cleveland, if only because there seem to be so many LeBron haters out there...

Yup[. I started watching early in the 4th quarter, and was concerned, especially with offensive rebounds OKC was getting seemingly at will. But the Warriors slooooowly brought it back from 8 or 10 down - not a single big run, but a methodical, point-at-a-time grinding catch-up. Basically, the real crunch time started when the W's tied it up, and they straight-out took the game away from the Thunder.

When a team has come back from a significant deficit so late in a game, it is a huge psychological advantage to whichever team can pull ahead. If the Thunder had put on a little run to get back up by 5 or so, that would have been a big emotional drain on the Warriors having worked so hard to close the gap only to fall back again.

On the other, and what actually happened, the Warriors went on to take the lead, and the Thunder panicked. Bad shot selection and bad passing did them in, and the Warriors stabbed them in the heart. Just like championship caliber teams do.

The Warriors let Game 1 get away from them, and the Thunder let Game 6 get away from them. If they can get their heads together to win Game 7, it will be a great achievement. But my money says OKC is too rattled and that the Warriors will take it.

Think you have it right to the point OKC collapses in the last game.

There was nobody, and I mean nobody, at either the froyo place or the grocery tore tonight because of the Sharks/Warriors. It was eerie.

Only 32 days until the Tour!!
