Predictable NBA Conference Finals

You know, for all the observations which come with an NBA marathon season here we are as we thought we’d be with Golden State vs. Houston and LeBron vs. Boston.

Yawn.

For all the talk of sudden parity in the NBA I would think Vegas is feeling pretty good right now about the third straight Golden State vs. LeBron matchup in the NBA Finals with Kevin Durant walking away with his second ring in two years with the Warriors.

Seems like a lifetime ago Durant left Oklahoma City with the July 4th announcement on the Players Tribune.

Lifetimes go by in a blur sometimes and the Thunder’s decade of relevance hung around for a decade of excellence with Kevin Durant.

Nick retired today as he should have and I smiled for him today. Good player, better person. His karma should be good.

Russell waits to see what Paul George is going to do.

As a guy who was born in San Diego…I’m fairly certain what I’d do if were Paul George…namely get my ass back to the Pacific Ocean and close to my family…and who knows maybe doing all that with Jerry West. I’d love to play for Jerry West.

I haven’t run into Steven yet this off season at our favorite 7-Eleven, but I got a feeling it will happen…you know–serendipity and all that. Such progressive progress in Oklahoma….by October you’ll actually be able to buy a six point beer inside a 7-Eleven. I’m surprised that got by the Trump Christians in faith based Oklahoma. What’s next…maybe learning to read and possibly smartening the fuck up beyond the level of a dirt clod?

Great weather this week in OKC. Very summery. Even though part of me longs to be in Toronto to get away from the Trump Christians in Oklahoma–my body loves the heat. I feel like a summer song.
