But nobody brings up the reigning Finals MVP's defense on Kevin Durant in the first half (6 for 19) and the final 5 minutes of the 4th quarter :picard:





KD hit a contested jumper over Iggy and weak side help with 5:15 left, putting Thunder up 96-89.. and then turnovers, rushed shots, bad decisions.. and goose egg. Thunder lose 101-108.

Westbrook got that work too; Iggy took that shyt from him late when Russ tried to take things into his own hands.

One of the most ridiculous and significant games of the last decade.

OKC literally led the entire game. 8-12 point lead the entire game, until the final 2 minutes and shyt just fell apart..

What would've been the point of tanking that series though?
KD wins that series and he beats:

a 67-15 Spurs team
a 73-9 Warriors team

and has one more crack at prime Lebron with literally everything on the table...

...best player, GOAT playoff run, immortalized for winning your small market team a 'ship and doing it before Lebron...

EVERYTHING was right there for him...

Everything!:damn:

:wow:
It’s hardly spoke of because people don’t care to remember KD too much before the warriors cause it don’t help with the lebron hate
Here's something else people dont remember

Steph was better in the playoffs that year. KD just had the better finals
Game Score vs. Portland
Steph 23.6
KD 16.4

Game Score vs. Utah
Steph 20.3
KD 20.6

Game Score vs. Spurs

Steph 25.8
KD 22.6

It was the finals were KD turned it up

Game Score vs. Cavs

KD 30.3
Steph 24.1

(Bron 29.6)

And imo..Lue trying to run with GS was not a smart move.
