Just how are you suppose to compete with a team like this?

[TE]

Honestly. It's fucking ridiculous. What a load of horseshit.

[peacemaker885]

We have to shoot the lights out. Can't miss shots.

[jag]

I hate bitching about calls...but the Spurs can't buy a fucking call

[Two10Whitey]

Convince the refs that it's opposite day.

[TheGreatYacht]

Hide the wine from Pop, tbh.

[cjw]

Every time Westbrook touches ball, he gets a call. Watching with Mavs fan friend of mine and have a Lakers fan texting me both amazed at how he can do no wrong. Baynes jumps straight up and they call a foul.

Meanwhile he can slap on defense and steal balls from out of bounds. Kinda pissed this scrub lineup hasn't given any hard fouls yet.

[poop]

The Ref-Westbrook combo is the deadliest attack in the league

[TE]

Impossible to guard this team.

[florige]

Let's just hope this crap doesn't happen at home. I mean this crap is beyond ridiculous.

Yup. Said the same. If he's gonna get a call everytime he touches the ball, you foul the fuck out of him and put him on his ass. Baynes needs to use his 6 fouls effectively.

Impossible to guard this team.

They're just too athletic on both sides of the ball with Ibaka back.

They're making the Spurs look umm...old.

The Thunder didn't need the officials tonight.

I rarely blame refs, but I feel as if the Thunder were served free throws on a silver platter. Westbrook gets 10+ fucking free throws a game.

[spurtech09]

I hate bitching about calls...but the Spurs can't buy a fucking callagree I think I will e different in SA....spurs just never got it going in okc...they will play better at home

[spurtech09]

theres no way spurs lose 3 in a row.....

[Mugen]

I'd love to say it will even out at home but it's the Thunder tbh :lol

[dg7md]

You have home court. That's the biggest advantage we have going for us. The Thunder are so damn lethal in part due to their fans.

[Jenks]

You put your body into the guys in the paint, rather than throwing the ball up to them.
They're not even putting Ibaka in position to foul, they run around him and then lay the ball up for him to swat. Parker looks like he's going out of his way to not put people in foul trouble, while Westbrook is throwing his body into anyone he can find. Finesse will not beat this team (which also means Splitter is completely useless this series). Pound the ball into them or don't bother showing up.

[spurraider21]

i lost my shit when westbrook did that slow euro step, walked into cojo, burped up a shot and got freebies

[Skull-1]

theres no way spurs lose 3 in a row.....

Lost four in a row in 2012. All four this season. Nine straight on the road. Yeah, there's no way they can lose three in a row this series... Ahem.

[tim_duncan_fan]

Attack the basket.

Don't pass up wide-open shots.

Make a jumper every once in a while.

And when it's the playoffs: Make a fucking contested shot. It's the goddamned playoffs. Quit looking for excuses to miss and follow through even when defended. Fucking pussies.

Attack the basket even when there is a big guy there.

Attack the basket.

Don't be scared to attack the basket.

Aggressively try to get a close shot.

Maybe run really, really fast and try to get a shot at the rim.

Draw fouls on the other team's big men by testing them in the paint.

Try to dunk on fools.

Run to the basket really hard.

Attack the rim.

Maybe make a jumpshot sometimes.

Don't shoot bad 3s during a run by the Thunder with 20 secs left on the shot clock.

Attack the basket.

Try to get to the hoop.

Attack the rim.

Don't be live-in-boyfriend having, cheating pretend-wife cuckolded pussies.

Try to get close shots at the rim.

Take the open shot and make the ball go in the hoop when you shoot it.

And this might be a little experimental, a little crazy, and a little unorthodox, but I think the Spurs should try to attack the basket more.

[KawhiLeonard]

james harden is up there but westbroke is in a league of his own i had to shut if off midway through the 3rd.

This. I've been thinking the same thing all series long honestly. There's absolutely no system in place on the Spurs part to take advantage of a player in foul trouble or to get key players in foul trouble. They need to attack Ibaka relentlessly.

[slick'81]

Stop playing scared it's like the spurs forgot how to play a team that has a shot blocker

[Chomag]

Not going to get many calls if you dont attack...just saying

[RD2191]

You folks do realize that we aren't playing just any team, right? THEY WON'T CALL THE FOUL ON IBAKA OR ANY THUNDER PLAYER IN THE PAINT. That's why our players look so demoralized. This series is just as much about the no calls than the calls. Unless Lebron suits up for the Spurs we aren't getting calls while driving to the rack! Our only hope is to beat them from the outside like the Clips were doing before they choked the series away. They went crazy from 3 in the games they won against OKC.
