Clutch free throws from Igudala to win it for Philly

As for the Lakers they need Gasol and Bynam to step up and score some points, relying on Bryant to do everything

[Darkon]

He might be one of the best players to ever play in the NBA, but he can't carry the team on his back.

Lakers are not that well going, and if they should go through I can't see the going past Oklahoma right now.

[Chazza]

Very true

Forgot that World Peace is back for game 7 so that might give them an extra edge

You would really fancy OKC to turn them over in the semis

[Chazza]

Lakers gone OKC winning the series 4 to 1

On another note Stan Van Gundy gone from Orlando so Howard has won that power struggle, unless he ****s off and leaves them in a right old mess

[Darkon]

Spurs vs OKC is a good matchup, going to look forward to that.

Miami is favorite against Pacers after overtaking them and I reckon Boston will go through as well. More or less the best conference finals that could be had.

Howard has to go t Brooklyn. Howard, Wallace, Brooks and Deron would destroy teams.

[Chazza]

That would be some line-up

Lakers got to be sniffing around him? Especially with them looking to get rid of Gasol

[Harv]

Bynum and Howard couldn't play together though. Both are under the basket bigs. Gasol has range out to 20+ feet.

I just want Brooklyn to be good

On another note my Golden State Warriors will be moving back to San Fran in 2017 if everything goes to plan. I might consider moving there if that happens.

Shaquille O'Neal, who had expressed interest in becoming the new general manager of the Orlando Magic and had been asked by the team to interview, has declined the invitation, sources close to the former player told ESPNBoston.com's Jackie MacMullan on Thursday.

O'Neal, those sources say, is flattered that the team had interest in him but has now decided he wants to stick with his new job as an analyst at TNT.

O'Neal began his legendary NBA career in Orlando. While he has no front office experience, sources told ESPN The Magazine's Chris Broussard that the Magic believed O'Neal's presence within the organization could help them retain Dwight Howard.

Wednesday night, Magic officials told ESPN.com's Marc Stein they will not publicly discuss the process or timetable of their GM and coach searches in the wake of Monday's dismissals of Stan Van Gundy and Otis Smith.

O'Neal played for the Magic from 1992 to 1996 and led the club to the NBA Finals in 1995. O'Neal kept his home in Orlando after leaving to join the Los Angeles Lakers in 1996 and still lives in Orlando.

Spurs took first game over OKC, a bit of a scare for the Thunder?

Will be an interesting series to follow.

Miami won quite comfortably!

Spurs win again, 20 in a row now

[Darkon]

Looking good for the final right now, although a bit to early to say still. Parker had a fantastic game, really big fan of him.

[Harv]

Spurs just keep getting it done. Damn they have good fundamentals.
