Re: ~-~-~-~Official 2012 NBA Finals Thread: Miami Heat vs. OKC Thunder~-~-~-~
People act as if OKC has all these superstars. The truth is, OKC only has one superstar and two streak shooters.
OKC is a jump shooting ISO ball team who are going against a fierce perimeter defense in Miami. Can OKC consistently get easy shots is key.
Miami is the exact opposite and lives in the paint which results in higher percentage shots.
I think the games will be highly competitive with OKC going stretches where they simply can't score. This is my concern is this series. OKC is going to have to knock down shots and not play ISO ball.
Look, I like Harden but let's not fool ourselves into thinking he is Wade, Kobe or the next Jordan. He is a player that is crafty when driving to his left and can hit some shots. He is not carrying a team or a superstar.
Westbrook simply cant shoot 26 shots a game and only make 34% of them and expect OKC to beat the Heat.
