Congrats to the Spurs. You earned it. Hope the damage from the riots don't cause too much damage.

For the 4th time in 5 years, the team that eliminated the Thunder won the title.

After watching the Spurs destroy the Heat in the finals I think it would be fair to say that the Thunder were the second best team this year.

Yep!

And they are getting older, while we are maturing.

It also demonstrated how much better the teams in the west were vs. those in the east.

Bodes well for next season and beyond.

Spurs will still be a beast next playoffs season. Regular season doesn't apply when it comes to them.

As long as Greg Popovich is coaching the Spurs, They will be contenders.

The Spurs deserve it! As for the rioting in San Antonio, that's something we Texans don't resort to unless it's needed. :)

2014 NBA Champions!

Give it up to the San Antonio Spurs!

Coach Greg Popovich guarded their minutes; inserted the best match-ups as Erik Spoelstra & Miami blew a gasket trying to counter the Spurs' moves. The Ray Allen move killed the Heat's bench.

Coach Popovich mastered his teams' strengths. He did not have three franchise players (James, Wade & Bosh) to bring home a well-deserved championship.

Thunder fans, our day will come sooner than you think...

The Thunder will have it's moment to shine oneday, and when that time comes this Texan will be joining ya'll in the OKC!

There are lot of great teams (see the early-2000 Kings, mid-2000 Suns as recent examples) that never got a title when it seemed likely. Nothing is inevitable, but the Thunder are still in a great position to compete. And that's all you can ask for sometimes.

2014 NBA Draft

June 26, 6:30 p.m. Barclays Center, Brooklyn - ESPN

We have the 21st & 29th picks in the NBA draft. Are there some possible 'diamonds-in-the-rough' in this upcoming draft? We will have to replace Fisher. Sefolosha & Butler are to be determined...

What are our needs(?):

1. Consistency and depth at the center position 5.

Steven Adams was a great find. We need back up; another big man like Adams, who attacks and shoots with confidence. Ibaka can be used as a 4 or 5.

2. Good back up guards, 1-2 (Fisher's gone).

Will Reggie Jackson be resigned? We need an insurance backup to Westbrook & Jackson.

3. Two-three additional bench players, 2-3-4 who aren't afraid to attack the paint and shoot.

Development of Perry Jones? PJIII needs increased playing time to gain confidence and develop his skills; his potential hasn't been challenged.

Build through the draft, pick up a few veterans...
