Let's not act like there wasn't home cooking tonight, :lol Are they just trying to pre-balance it out for when we play the Thunder and/or Warriors?
But yes, the Spurs are the better team regardless.
In the early and middle Duncan era, this would have been 18/33 or something shitty like that. Bank on it.
Although, the 19/19 from Kawhi reminds me of the time Duncan made 15/15 against the Suns. Next game, iirc he was 2/11 or something like that :lol
Uhh or maybe their game plan against Kawhi just resulted in a lot of fouls bc they couldn't stop him? And yeah but Kawhi's a much better FT shooter than Duncan was.
How the fuck was it home cooking? It's not like it was a bunch of phantom fouls on shots. Most of them weren't even shooting fouls, it just so happened that the Grizzlies played pretty stupid and were in the penalty for long stretches.
Grizzlies tried to up the defensive pressure and commited more fouls as a result, tbh.
missed the game, but aren't the Grizzlies all about being physical? Quick look on bball ref and they rank 29th in fouls/pg...while spurs rank 7th.
Well the Heat in the Lebron era trapped all the damn time and they never got this many called against them??Quote:

Kawhi is a fucking machine and the grizz can't stop him. It's not the refs.
David Jizdale just blew his load at the podium.
Yeah he did. He's gon' get fined like a mofo and he's definitely not gonna get calls now. That's not the way to do it.
Best way to lose a series is talk shit about the refs. I mean Pop doesn't even fucking do it when he loses a series because of bad calls. :lolQuote:

There's nothing that says you should get X amount of FTs if you attempt X amount of FGs from the paint. Stupid. Remember Mark Cuban. Bitch about the refs in that manner, fuck your team. Thanks for the sweep bro.
The Spurs finally gets calls for once at home and the coach is going to bitch about it.
The warriors get phantom fouls all season long, and nary a peep.
And el oh el re: jizzdale. Hilarity.
Unless you're Phil Jackson, that's how he got half his rings.Quote:

The coach dude was talking good but then he slapped the table and remarked and left. Made his whole point look fucking dumb and embarrassing. :lol
Refs will swallow their whistles on those same plays in Memphis.Quote:

Twitter feed can't get enough of the refs. It's painfully awkward and unusual for us to be on this side of that coin.

You look at that feed. Nothing about the refs till they lost. The reason is because during the game other than a call or two it all looked legit. Fair calls during the course of the game based on how they played. Once they lose they look at the stat sheet for excuses and find one. Only then does it become an issue. Bullshit. They had their chance and their time against us. They beat us one year. We retooled and reconstructed to beat them. We haven't lost against them since then in the playoffs. They stood pat and this is the result. Fuck them.
You are way too naive if you think that. The best way to get calls is to whine. Refs are human and all that external pressure takes a toll. If you are constantly reminded of something you start to believe it, no matter if it's true or not. Fizdale knew pretty damn well what he was doing in that press conference. Watch the Grizzlies get away with murder in Memphis. Spurs need to be ready.Quote:

Like I said in the 1st quarter: Just get to the rim.
Some of y'all are morons.
Grizzlies aren't as talented and are forced to foul to compete...the Spurs played physical and the combination made it seem unfair, like the Spurs were benefiting from calls.
I think in general the refs are wanting to let both teams play physical but they can't allow illegal contact like pushing or obvious hacking. Spurs defense style benefits from this, Grizzlies do not...and like I said it looks unbalanced.
Dude, just wait and see. You will realize what we are talking about.Quote:

So I agree that in some cases that works. This is different. It didn't look that bad. You can't just sit there and say because we had this many attempts from here we should get this many fts. Bullshit. Then you can't yell and slam tables as a rookie coach either. IF there is a legit case and IF you complain about it tactfully And IF you have garnered some respect yes complaining can help.
The laker fans talking about rigged games. :lmao
They haven't beaten us in a single playoff game in franchise history over the course of 5 playoff series, except those 4 awful games in 2011.Quote:

memphis got screwed tonight. Cmon guys, we hate it when they screw us, we should at least admit it when we get the benefit of whistles.
Grizz only arrived at the half time interval. Home cooking was all eaten.
Those of you that are saying Memphis got screwed, how badly in your opinion did they get screwed? You think it cost them the game?Quote:

I just don't see it like some of you guys are seeing it. To me, it's maybe top 500, as I don't think it (a few bad calls with 95% of them being legit) even came close to costing them the game.
Having said all that, it should have went even further in our favour as they should have had more fouls called against them. So those few bad calls should have been more than irrelevant as they should have had more fouls called on them. They didn't play defense without fouling, and that's on them. They consequence of all their fouling is that they got the Spurs in the bonus, again, that was all on them.
I don't really want to hear anymore of this shit about them getting screwed. There were a couple of egregious calls, but the Spurs should have had even more fouls called for them. Play defense without fouling. If you can't, then shut the fuck up about it. It's not even like most of the fouls were touch fouls or phantom fouls, most of them were actual fouls. I just do not understand where some people are coming from on this subject.
He should be fired, in my very humble opinion.
He is the one who is unprofessional.
Spurs never complain.
That's a foul committed by miami on Manu in the 2013 NBA finals, tbh
ginobli had just gotten away with taking 4 steps hahaha. Besides, that Miami series was fairly officiated. If anything, we got more whistles than them. Hey, I'm glad to get the win, but but some of the calls on Memphis' comeback were crazy. You know like I know had we been on the end of those whistles, we'd all be pissed. I don't know what the league is trying to do but I don't like it in the long run. I don't trust PowderQuote:

Flat out BS. Post video proving your point. On PTR, you can see in the posted videos at least 3 plays by ZR where he fouled Pau or someone else, and there was no call. So let's give the Grizz their 3 missed calls, and give the Spurs their 3.Quote:

The people arguing "but stats" have Texas Instruments computers for brains. Not only do they pick stats that in no way entail that the Spurs "should" have had more foul calls against them, but in any single game, those long-term aggregated stats are by and large meaningless in the decision making process of an individual game. The Grizz play physical and foul because they are undisciplined. They are undisciplined because they are playing some D-League level players, and a 40 year old VC.
This whole narrative by Fitz and the Twitterazi (as JVG calls them) is disgusting and insulting to the Spurs. Spurs have haters again it seems. I mean, do all these viewers really feel that if the calls they wanted were made, the Grizz have a chance in this series? They aren't a typical 7 seed? How many 2's upset 7's? Honestly? It's ridiculous.
Anyway, this all just takes away from the pleasure of watching what a monster MVP Kawhi has been. He was great in the RS, but these last two games he has shown something I personally hadn't seen before - Duncan-like efficiency and taking over a game. He couldn't be stopped (without fouling anyway).
Is that what you tell your boyfriend too?Quote:

A difference of 18 FTA in one game is not that unusual.
