Honestly, I'm not too worried.
It's obviously more than just that.
They are also struggling to contain Westbrooks speed, Ibaka length and threat of jumper, but have nobody to slow down Durant either. That's a lot of holes to worry about.
It's definitely not over. Okc can look a totally different team away from home. They have to win a game in sa.

This Thunder team is a much better team than 2 years ago. KD, Westbrook and Ibaka is obviously better than before and they have good players coming off the bench, Adams, Lamb, Jackson (if he won't start), Collison is reliable too. Looks like Sefalosha and Perkins will be getting less minutes and they don't have a guy who is a liability in defense James Harden. It won't be the same as 2012 Finals. Thunder can win it all.

Honest question, dude. Why do you always make shit up? You know that it's damn easy to verify stuff, right?
EDIT:
LeBron against the Thunder in the Finals:
KD against the Heat in the Finals:
KD took more shots from the 3 than at the rim. Twice as many 3's as LeBron.
watch him never return to this thread again
ive owned him multiple times before and he dissapears every single time

They need to start Sefalosha or else Wade is going off.
KD and westbrook are also inconsistent and i think they've been playing worse this year than in the 2012 playoffs tbh.
Miami didnt have birdman and ray in 2012 either.

Re: Fellow Heat haters should be rooting hard for the Spurs
Now that Brooks has realised he doesn't have to play 3 players totally incompetent of making shots on the court at all times, I give OKC a fair chance in a possible finals. 50/50.

Okc role players will need to play big. Durant Westbrook can only do so much and Durant has trouble scoring when Bron guards him.

Just like in the 2012 finals, 30ppg on 50%. Scoring trouble.

It would still bother them, don't get me wrong, because KD and RW are that great, but the Spurs offense is an entirely different animal. 2) Spurs guard LeBron better than anyone in the NBA. They prey on his inconsistent jumper(along with lacking confidence in it) and completely shut his driving lanes off by hounding him with 3-4 guys any time he looks to penetrate. They are also great at packing the paint and have an excellent shot blocker in Duncan. OKC's D has never bothered LeBron on the other hand. 3) Spurs have a good interior scorer in Duncan and size always bothers Miami. OKC don't have that.
This. Spurs also have Danny Green as an effective defender on Wade, whereas OKC have to opt to play an offensive liability if they play their only guy who can defend Wade (Sefolosha). And they still have no one to defend Lebron. Who's gonna defend him? Durant? Good luck - Lebron will bully him into oblivion if he tries.

Russ loves stating false BS as fact, then ignores the truth when it's posted. It's kind of his thing.

Murked.
But damn: why can Bron never make his jumper in the finals with any consistency?

That is the only thing he did that series. Played no defense, brought nothing to the table in terms of playmaking, and just stood around 3 feet behind the 3pt line when he didn't have the ball. Not even most important player on his team
