Same. The pressure is definitely on the Thunder to win Game 6 at home.

On a different note the All NBA teams were announced today. Jordan is your first team center. Is there really not a better center than him in modern NBA? I also saw Pau Gasol got two first team votes (Marv Albert mike fratello) after possibly one of the worst defensive seasons I've ever seen.

The NBA; the league where your 2nd team All-League point guard didn't make the All-Star team.

Jordan being on first team is a joke.

Yeah. I was quite the Draymond Green fan going into the finals but the guys a nob. That kick to Adams' nuts really deserved a vacation.

And I get it that he's the "emotional leader" and all that. But screaming and getting in the face of the opposition players every few minutes isn't "emotional leadership". It's just being a dick.

The all NBA 1st and 3rd centers sometimes get benched in close games because they can't make free throws. Yay modern NBA.

I thought Towns had a better year than Jordan all things considered.

People were mad about Green not being the first team Center. Ummm...he's not a center? These teams are going to end up like the all star game starting 5s eventually where positions don't matter. Maybe Green as one of the PGs next year?

As a basketball fan in general, Cavs/Warriors is the worst possible finals matchup for me. If it isn't my team, I hate "rematches".

I wouldn't mind seeing a healthy Cavs team play the Warriors or the Thunder. Last year's Finals squad was not a complete team.

I want no part of Cavs-Warriors II. I know how that will end.
