Got to go to Game 1 of the NBA Finals last night! Thunder Up!!

There were a number of celebs in the audience! A number of muy importante BOLers.

Is anyone supporting the Heat?

Go HEAT!!!
Last night they were Thunderstruck!!

I heard that the only Heat supporters are from Florida and Washington!

Nah, I'm a James fan, (wished he had stayed in Cleveland), but they wouldn't bring him in any help, so if he wanted a ring, he needed to move.

All I know is that I'm currently growing a beard like James Harden!

Oklahoma is alive with Thunder Fever. How awesome that you got to go to the game QM. Next time you get tickets, could you please stop and pick me up? Pretty please? I am right on your way, you know.

Nothing like sitting at home watching and yelling "FEAR THE BEARD" right at the television. I tell you, we are flat goofy with excitement over this. I love the fact that the Miami players have even said that we are classy opponents.

I wonder what Seattle thinks......

QM - I'll can be waiting out there on HWY 51 tomorrow afternoon for you to pick me up for tomorrows game. What time? I'll pay for the gas.

they beat the Heat in the second half just as they did the Spurs, it's youth and high energy for a full game, no team does it better...

Won't have a chance for more tickets. These belong to the Bank President. He let employees put their names in a drawing and I got lucky! Also went to the Clippers game last March. Took my daughter then and took my son last night. He did find tickets available for Thursday on the row behind us in the same section selling for $2,180 each. You buy the tickets and "I" will pay for the gas! Ha!

If you haven't seen these, they are pretty good. Some local kids did them - a very talented family.

Beard like Harden

Came to Play

Call Him KD

The facial hair of Oklahoma City guard James Harden has been talked about all season and now it's the topic behind a group of Oklahomans latest music video entitled ‘Beard Like Harden.'

"We were eating at Pizza Hut watching the Thunder sweep the Mavericks and it was halftime and we went to leave and were listening to" Moves Like Jagger"." My friend Gary and his wife Abby, we were riding in their car and she just was joking around and sang beard like Harden instead of moves like Jagger so then Gary and I were just messing around and came up with a chorus. Then when I got home I just sat down and wrote the rest of the song," said Daniel Castor.

Daniel, along with his siblings Chris and Bobbi Castor singers are all featured in the video alongside friends Zach Jackson, Sterling Parks, Gary Babb and Jordan Wilson who are all from Woodward.

"We love to watch and we all play basketball and are really awful so we thought it would be fun to just make a video of it and we all really like Harden so we thought that would be a great song to parody," said Chris who along with the rest of the crew all admire the massive five o'clock shadow Harden has grown.

"Daniel wrote the majority of the song and then we came along and helped him tweak it," said Chris who worked with his sister Bobbi to sing the main vocals.

I'm very lucky to have friends with season tickets so I've been able to attend several playoff games. I'm hoping ::praying hands:: to go Thursday.

That is the biggest load of bull. James is a crybaby... always has been, always will be... he can't win a ring because he can't close games, chokes at the end, then goes on to blame it on the rest of the team... Wins 60+ games and has the best record in the league with Cleveland during the regular season, then loses in the playoffs because he dooesn't show up when it counts. He QUIT in the middle of the playoffs vs the Celtics in his last year in Cleveland, laid down and quit mid-series.

What happened game one? Durant in the 4th quarter - 17 points... James - 7 points on 2 of 6 shooting.

What did James do in the championship last year vs Dallas in their 6 game series? Averaged 3 points per game in the 4th quarter.

James is full of excuses and loves to pass the buck, but at the end of the day the only one to blame is himself for not coming through when needed.

<<< makes note to get new friends

aren't there 4 other guys on the court with him during the game? I fail to see how any 1 person can be responsible for a loss.

Sure are 4 other guys, and all 5 guys on the floor have their role. James' role as being the superstar and superior scorer is to score when the team needs points down the stretch. He fails in his role, hence why his team never wins a champsionship.

Just like it is the closer's role in baseball to close the game out when called in from the bulpen, it is James' role to close the game out when it is on the line.

of course, if the other 4 guys played defense throughout the game, and didn't allow their man to score, and made all their shots, and made all their freethrows, then it wouldn't fall on "1 guy" to have to pull it out and win in teh last second...

the greatest teams have everyone contribute. I can recall games in finals where Jordan and Bryant had off nights, one Kobe only scored 2 points in the 4th quarter, but their teams still found a way to win. That's what the Heat needs to do. If their game plan is to keep it close and then rely solely on James to win it, it is a poor gameplan.

LOL..

and now I get to start all over in PA. Maybe I'll make friends with some Steeler fan!!

Thanks Happy for taking up the argument. I thie BtB is the one spreading the Bull. Even Jordan couldn't win the championship until quality players were added to the team. LJs has never had good team mates until moving South.

Ofcource until he wins a ring he will never be called a great player.

It takes a team to win a game, but one guy can lose a game.

Good luck, I've been looking for friends with Steeler tickets for 40 years.... Now Pirate tickets, no problem!

Pirate tickets they can not give away.

Actually, they've been on a streak as of late. They were tied for first place in their division last week and are only 2 games back right now. They had over 30,000 in attendance last Friday I heard.
