WE ARGUING THAT LETTING SPO STAND THERE IS A CONSPIRACY THAT IS PLANNED TO THROW OFF AN NBA PLAYER?

YALL PATHETIC

if the NBA was fixed wouldn't MIA have won last year? Especially knowing that Stern isn't the biggest fan of Cuban?
This game was lost by OKC's youth and non-execuation at the end of the game. Only reason why it was close was the Heat's 9 turnovers in the 4th.

It should be a technical or warning no way should anyone be allowed to step on the court shout and waive their arms. He is in range for a three pointer thats what a coaches box is for.

I detest James Harden's game to the utmost.
Dude acts like he is the hardest cat in the league, and flops every other play.

He might have got the call if he didn't look at the ref as soon as he was falling.

The refs have no respect for OKC, so they shouldn't expect any close calls.

But foreal, its funny now the Okc fans know how the spurs fans felt in game 6

y'all said don't blame the refs..

KD is in over his head trying to guard LeBron, yes that 4th foul on D-Wade wasn't a foul but, KD is in over his head this series.

Bron physically definitely has an advantage over him, but real talk Bron is holding KD on almost every single play when he is trying to get and catching the ball and nothing is being called. Not to even go back to the egregious non-call from the end of last game, but for as much as Bron outweighs and is more physical than KD, he's being allowed to get away with A LOT more on the offensive end. I'd like to see how the Heat do if Bron ever gets in foul trouble this series, but that will never happen.

Thabo is good on defense but I do not trust him offensively, something overall just seems off about his play so far in this series.

KD should be put on battier or chalmers.. hell maybe even haslem

westbrook should be on wade

thabo should be on lebron


still not sure why perk is getting 30+ mins.. ibaka and collison should both be getting more mins than perkins


series is far from over.. we lost by 6 shooting 42-22-62

Nothing more to be said. Nothing more. Karma is a +@%*#.

PO

I'm still flabbergasted that she put the headband on.

 

[mr s j king]

Anybody notice Brooks taking the ball out of Westbrooks hand in the 2nd half?

The plays were primarily Fisher and Sefalosha getting the ball from Westbrook, 

and immediately giving it to Durant. Problem is that isn't Durant's game.

Durant is a catch and shoot player. LeBron wasn't letting him get anything off the high screen.

And Scotty Brooks helped Lebron by not running Durant from side to side.

And so on and so forth..

2011 Finals are somewhat similar in different order.. Game 2 Dallas came back big in short period of time.. Game 1 OKC came back big over the second half.

Game 1 in 2011 was a convincing win at Home for Miami.. Game 3 in 2012 was a convincing win at Home for Miami.

Game 3 in 2011 Dallas mounted a comeback but fell just short at Home. Game 2 2012 OKC mounted a comeback, and fell just short at home..

Miami had control over that series after 3 games as well.. Because they spoil Dallas' Game 2 comeback, with a game 3 win.

Who knows what happens. If OKC pulls out 1 in Miami they still have Home Court Advantage for the series.. If they pull out both then I find it hard to believe Miami takes 2 in OKC, possible, but extremely difficult in that Arena.

Still plenty of series to go.

All of this is true.

Perkins played a better game tonight than Ibaka did IMO. Though Ibaka was sending shots back like nothing as usual.
Westbrook has to be more aggressive next game too.

Missed FT's is why the Thunder lost, not the refs.

Quoted for truth and emphasis. 
I saw virtually no foul play amongst the refs. Some questionable calls? Sure, but that's to be expected in any NBA game. Thunder lost because of their lack of execution down the stretch. Having to create from the 3 point line is a dangerous thing and that's what Westbrook, Harden, and Durant did the entire 4th quarter. 

 

[mytoasterspeak]

One of the worst officiated games I've seen in a while. People in here saying the game wasn't one sided are idiots or don't know basketball. Can officials make mistakes, yep, but this game was pathetic. Door is open, front foot is on the ground, back leg is swinging forward.

So KD isn't holding Bron? I saw a call both ways on them holding each other tonight.

Lets go Heat.
