[...] Darnell Mayberry: “As expected, there were no handshakes between James Harden and World Peace. Hopefully now we can all move on. That was the most overblown story line of the playoffs so far. Should World Peace have sought out Harden before the game and apologized? Perhaps. But should he have made a point to do it in the middle of the game? Not at all. Even if you think he should have, you have to keep in mind two things: 1) We’re talking about Ron Artest, and 2) he already has apologized, numerous times. Let’s move on.” [...]

Awesome win. The rest of the series is really just a formality. You have met your match Lakers.

Finally we go to hear your thoughts on Miller. On the new guy: I didn’t like when he encouraged us to cheer on our ‘Thundy’…weird.

I knew this would be a blow-out, I just didn’t want to say it out loud. Thunder players(and fans)wanted LA in the WORST way.

Bynum was taking it straight to Perk. He was getting lit up. Nazr did a better job on him. If Perk can’t play, he needs to say so. Don’t want him making that injury worse.

They have no answer for Russ. If doubling him with Harden and Durant on the floor is their plan, they need a new plan. Good luck defending that dude the whole series, Kobe. “Five Rings” …Yeah, BUT THAT’S ALL YOU GET!! lol

The reason why everyone loves The Beard is because he’s the most charming and genuine Thunder player and we’re grateful that he’s accepted the role he has for the good of the team. You know he’s your favorite too, DM.

What was most impressive was that despite all the storylines heading into it, they came out and played basketball. They sent a message with their game. Not with dirty plays and cheapshots.

I was listening to a podcast interview with Steve Blake after the elbow happened. He actually laughed while discussing the incident (which makes me want to elbow his ass). The host didn’t think it was funny. That entire Laker squad is a group full of arrest warrants waiting to happen.

What did that iCantRememberHisName dude punch a chair and remove his jersey for?? It was not that serious, loser.

Laker fans were going in on Mike Brown via twitter. It’s not his fault they have no bench. Ramon Sessions was supposed to change their lives. Too bad he’s scared of Russell (and he should be!)lol

If Kobe comes out guns blazing and excludes his teammates- who played well by the way- we’ll be OK. Especially since he’ll be exhausted from guarding honey badger.

Is it too early to get the brooms out?

hey yep, you forgot about Perk’s ring.

Fun game last night, I lik the ones that don’t cause me stress

During the interviews on nba tv, the last question asked of Kobe was, can you guard them? He didn’t like that question. Do you know who asked it?

Let me say this: If we smash LA like that again, you could probably just put Cole on Bynum and not have a worry. Bynum will go into one of his deep blue funks, never to be heard from till he starts running his dumb mouth next season.

Just remember Nazr (apart from Fish) is the only one that has a ring. DONT underestimate Nazr not been able to get her done.

Great game, good job as always DM. Game 2 Thunderup!

great job DM, as always. real talk about nazr, he has instantly become the wild-card for the thunder. if he has to play extended minutes, how do you think OKC will do?
