Prior to Game 1 of the Western Conference Finals between the Oklahoma City Thunder and Golden State Warriors, ESPN provocateur Skip Bayless essentially opined that the Thunder have no chance in the series.
Not sure the Thunder can win a single game against the Warriors.

NBA players always seem to remember these things. After pulling off the upset on Monday night, Thunder big man Enes Kanter made sure to publicly remind Bayless of his mistake on the Twitter machine.

The truth is, many NBA analysts and aficionados alike didn’t give Oklahoma City a chance in the series. But Bayless is one of the most notable, so he gets to eat everyone’s collective words.
