Send in ayers or day specifically for no purpose other than to throw chimpbrook into the second row
Lol it's annoying man. There are just some overall terrible basketball fans in this world. All would be right if the Spurs beat the out of these es.

Ayres is completely useless, tbh, he would it up..
Seriously. He goes barreling out of control and just throws up. Foul.
That pussy gonna get his In game 5
He would probably miss and take out Timmy's ACL in some strange string of events.
Yes, Ginobili used to be able to do that but now he sticks mainly to jumpshots.
Great players get to the line. Look at the leaders from 2000.

The difference is that these guys hit their FTs. We don't mind when a ty FT shooter gets 40 a night (like Howard) but we cannot tolerate it when a guy shoots 100% and gets 15 or more.

Here we can clearly see that these guys don't average nearly as many FTs per game as guys did 14 years ago. Notice that Tim got to the line a lot as well back then.
Westbrook's ref reliance will become abundantly clear if the Thunder reach the Finals. He won't get those calls against the Heat.
Usage rate has something to do with it. WB has the freedom to dominate the ball.
14 years ago? Really? Why not bring wilts 100 point game? It's irrelevant to today's game.
Spurs fans are complaning about soft breathing fouls on Westbrook but nobody on the team dares to hack him hard either.
Duncan should have the initiative to take a flagrant one for the team. What's it gonna cost, 3 minutes on the bench?
Just showing that it's not uncommon for the best players in the game to get to the line about 10 times a game. There are some excursions but Westbrook won't average 14 trips a game. Tony, on the other hand, has had 2 FTA in the past 3 games combined.
Thank you. Dude runs amok in the paint because he can do so freely and get to the line. If someone in there put an elbow upside his monkey gourd, he'd think twice about that next time.
This I agree with. Someone needs to wipe that smirk off that s face. Baynes had chances tonight.
No, Spurs are too nice. They don't have an enforcer and the big 3 aren't going to step across that line. Pop wants some nasty but he doesn't consider that in the off season when he's looking at prospects. He brings in Marco.
I said in another threAd, pop wants nasty, but doesn't want people to foul. Can't have it both ways.
+10000. It's annoying as . And I don't see what he's done in his career to deserve these calls. He's out of control about 70-80% of the time and barrels into a defender in the paint and gets the call. It's pretty pathetic..
Stephen Jackson could have been the one decking Westbrook (yes, the Spurs NEED to deck him if they want to alter his decision-making) but he went on the deck Tim's wife instead.
Spurs players are great system players but one of them needs to go re and deck RWB in Game 5.
There's no Felton spencer or horry or Bowen but we got mr nice guy splitter and Danny green helping every thunder player up off the floor
What does he think "nasty" means, scowling? Nasty is sending Russ to the lockerroom with a mouth full of bloody chicklets after he ventures into the paint one too many times. Same with Durant, you cannot block that , but you can take his legs out from under him. See how well that wire frame holds up to that fall a few times.
Thinking OKC in 7, D?
The cherry on top is that he also traveled on the dunk that followed the steal, unless my eyes were cheated by some spell.
All I know is this. Not one spurs guard was able to make Westbrook pay for gambling on D. Not one player took advantage of the overplaying . Pathetic effort by the guards who all seem to be in snooze mode with the dribble. You don't have to be athletically gifted to get around a guy that's taking a chance. All it requires is smarts and ball control.
The refs rewarded and protected the guy that was playing aggressive. Where's that guy for the Spurs. Green, kawai and Splitter are all going into a s .
