Will WarriorRef seal the deal if Game 7 is close?

[Fabbs]

Supposing OKC surprises and Westbrook and Durant not only are shooting 50%, but playing team ball. And Durant is playing defense!

Close game will WarriorRef rise to the occasion?
It would seem stunning if ThunderRef appeared.
Seems best OKC could hope for is a 60% Golden 40% OKC ref.

[InRareForm]

Yes

[TheGoldStandard]

Roberson will be in foul trouble in the 1st. Refs won't mess around this game.. Not on GS home court. It'l be the spark of the blowout.

Thunderref is the strongest force in NBA history since the 2002 wcf. Don't know why you'd think the warriors have the refs in their pocket when they've shot about 50 fewer ft this season.

Ya and it continued into the Spurs series.
Media darling Warrior Phags are about the only team to get better, meh lets call it equal rigging then OKC. But not when they face each other.

Foul call on Adams after Gaymond hooks his arm and drags him to the floor.
Excuse me, *double foul*.

Most blatant call of this game

Should have been a flagrant foul on Draymond. That was a very dirty play that could have resulted in Adams separating his shoulder or possibly breaking his arm.

[HI-FI]

Green is the most protected nignog that I can recall. He should've been tossed long ago.

[phxspurfan]

Absolutely. If OKC doesn't lead by 15-20 with 5 to go, they lose.

[Clipper Nation]

No refs necessary, Durbeta just decided to quit on the season.

Iguadala is literally the new Derek Fisher. He creates so much contact with hacking and fouls a lot but any...ANY contact with him and he goes flying to the floor.

Curry foul

[MultiTroll]

Curry foul
Oh yeah.

90-86 1:20 left.
First Gamond Green loses the ball on a drive. Westbrook immediately jumps down on the floor with Mouthbreather while Durant elects to stay standing and even back away a little while he adjusts his tampon. A lesser version of the Cam Newton Superbowl back off. Westy appears to get his hand on the ball right away. Marv Albert says something about jump ball. No! They flail around on the floor for a few seconds as Durant also gets his hand on the ball. Jump ball!? No, timeout awarded Golden State by Crawford. :rolleyes

5 seconds on shot clock. Curry skirts around the arc. Ibaka does foul him before the shot with a light but still contact reach in. However ref decides to let it go and then Curry fouls back at Ibaka with a responding "reach out" push off. Okay, ref is gonna let both calls go. Golden Boi now hoists the ball to shoot and looses control of the ball. Tweet. Oh now a foul is called.

Two huge bailout calls on the same possession. When the cameras pan to both Mouthbreather and Curry after the plays, their body language is they know good and well they just got bailed out. Not saying OKC was gonna win but they made a huge comeback to close it to 4 and should have had the ball.

8 FT's for the Warriors at home to 17 for OKC on the road. I felt the refs let a lot of stuff go, but at least they did it consistently on both ends.

The refs let a lot go ...
I dont think you can ask for much more from a Game 7 officiating crew ...
that game was decided on the floor.

Agreed - as long as it is consistent for both teams I don't care. The players will adjust if it's even one way or the other.

It sucks that officiating is discussed so much in the NBA. You hear that old retired fucker saying "well at this point in a crucial playoff game you have to consider.." no the fuck you don't. You call what happens, the moment isn't your business. That shit really detracts from the game, fucking officials trying to be stars.

It makes it worse that it's consistent. It means the refs have a game plan and they shouldn't. They should 't huddle and say "let's be loose about it" or "let's call everything".

Jesus... it's a fucking Broadway musical.

No, it wasn't.
Moron OKC may well have lost either way.
But bitch ass Green being allowed to get away with his arm bar takedown, after a phucking review most def altered the game. Not just that one play, but it embolded Gaymond the rest of the game. As the prior game with no Flagrant embolded him to do the arm bar shit.

Completely changed how Gaymond played.
