Last night the Thunder won game one of the of the NBA Finals and it is obvious that the best team in the finals is OK City. It is a wonderful thing how teams play at home. There were several things that stood out watching the games. OKC is younger, faster, more athletic and they have a more complete team.
Miami has the best player on the court in LeBron but he can't beat every team every game by himself. Already today the LeBron can't win the big one has started. Anybody who watched any of the game last night saw James carried the Heat but he didn't get enough help to offset Kevin Durant's fourth quarter because the fourth, fifth and sixth players for OKC were better than Miami's.
I think OKC wins this series in six games they are simply the better team.
Thursday starts the US Open Golf Championship in San Francisco and in the wisdom of the USGA they have paired Phil, Tiger and Bubba. I think they have totally been unfair to the buying public who would like to see that pairing. How many tickets on any day can they sell on any golf course. If they sell 50,000 per day you know 35,000 wants to watch this group but a person standing the 20th row deep you will not see a thing from that far back. You know I'm only kidding as this threesome is one of the best pairings in the last 20 years.
Do I think anyone from this group wins this week I doubt it. You know Tiger is going to shoot low one day but his problem for the rest of his playing golf life will be that five foot putt which all of a sudden it is no longer guaranteed like it use to be. Phil hasn't played that well lately and Bubba has not done much since the Masters. Regardless of how well or poorly he plays Tiger still plays a game that he can still finish tenth if his putting is terrible. I think as least two round Tiger won't make a putt all day. There was a time in Tiger's golf life all he had to do was aim the ball at the hole and it went in. Not any more
Legion hits the diamond Thursday night for their first home game in two weeks. The pitchers should be rested and these games against Wilson Thursday and Edenton Friday will tell us about this team for the rest of the season. The regular season for Legion ends July 9th so the end is not all that far away. First pitch starts a 7PM both nights. Post 58 right now stands at 6-4 and 3-1 in conference. Three of those losses last week to Pitt County once and Cherryville twice. Post 58 might not play another team all year any better than those two. The closes would be Thursday against Wilson.
