Shocking. 113-99 was the final. OKC led 55-31 at the half.
This has to be the end of this "Spurs" run. Tim Duncan is 40. They got LaMarcus Aldridge in the off-season, a home-run signing it seemed. They won 67 games in the regular season, second only to Golden State, twelve more than Oklahoma City, ten more than Cleveland. And yet, no Finals, not even the conference finals. Eliminated in six games by Oklahoma City. Stunning. Lost four of five after their game one blowout win. Lost two of their three games at home where they had lost once in 41 games in the regular season.
The Fall of the Alamo. It is only May but through four and one-half months of 2016, this is the American sports story. To my knowledge a distant third in the world to Leicester City's title in the English Premier League, and behind too Stamford Bridge is Falling Down, but third to my thinking and third in the world, and tops in America. I am in shock.
