Miller just iced the game. Denver will win this.
Was an elbow by his own man Jackson
I'm just glad they're losing.

Yeah, i really donīt get why in a very compe ive west the NBA is favoring this team so much.
This has had some funny moments, Durant going for his sweep through instant foul call but no whistle.
thought it was knee, lol. my stream is
That was awesome. It's so ironic that the guy that gets so many whistles is 2nd in the league in Technicals
What's funny is that a guy who called Chris Bosh a fake tough guy is suddenly getting Technical fouls called on him, seems like he's trying too hard to change his image. If he wants to be a tough guy or not nice he needs to go cram Westbrook in a Locker and tell him that's its his team.
OKC fouling intentionally, do they have to tell the refs befre doing it? "Hey!! call this one!"
Yea. I think he's gotten so spoiled that when he doesn't get some calls, he lets the officials know about it
Wow, they just keep finding new ways to make ugly shoes.
damn, the spurs need to get their together. lakers in the 1st and denver/grizz in the 2nd? thats a trip
OKC is far and away number one in technicals, and they're far and away number one in free throw attempts. Might be something to that whining thing.
OKC at Memphis tomorrow. Could be another quick loss
Refs can't hide for too long.
Spurs turn next. Gotta beat GSW tomorrow. OKC will have to bounce back @ Memphis tomorrow. We could be up by 2 1/2 games by the end of Wednesday.
If we can beat OKC one more time, its essentially a lock unless we have some epic collapse.
Edit, just checked our our upcoming schedule. That "collapse" could come soon
Golden State, Utah, @ Houston, Denver, Clippers, Heat, @ Grizz, Orlando, @ OKC, Atlanta, @ Denver, Sacramento, @ Lakers, @ Warriors, then Wolves. a lot of real toughies in that one
Spurs are gonna need another OKC loss. Evens them up in the 2nd tiebreaker (record against WC) and the Spurs own the 3rd tiebreaker (record against WC playoff teams: OKC - 12-9, Spurs - 12-6).
Or they can find a way to win in OKC...
When the score was 103-97, that stretching arm by Durant to DIRECTLY asks for foul with no intention to shoot the ball at all is so ridiculous. It's not even funny anymore. NBA needs to treat this kind of cheating like flop. It's so annoying and so unfair to other non-star defenders. I'm saying this not because I'm a Spurs fan, but as an basketball fan.
1st or 2nd seed doesn't matter.
The biggest reason for the 1st seed a couple of months ago was it allowed to avoid to have to play both OKC and Clippers. It's now moot since Clippers don't look scarier than Nuggets and Memphis and it's not even sure they will get the 3rd seed.
Between 1st and 2nd seed, I would pick the one that won't face Lakers in the first round.
The NBA is going to take care of its cash cows but I wish there would be consistency with the calls, I hate when a ref waits to see if the ball is going to drop before he calls a whistle especially when the other team starts going up the court and they call it.
Golden State is a garbage team. No need to worry about them or Utah. Houston's not playing winning basketball at the moment but could be difficult if their shooters are having a good night. Denver, Clippers, Heat, and Grizz is brutal. Would be satisfied if we went 2-2 over that stretch. Definitely going to need TP for those teams. It'd be nice if Ginobili showed up once in a while too.
I honestly don't think the Spurs can beat OKC in OKC. Thought so last year and I feel the same this year. The amount of calls they get there is just absurd. Doesn't help that the Spurs will need roleplayers to step up big time while OKC has 3-4 players they should be able to count on night in and night out.
No team should ever sacrifice a first seed because they're afraid of playing a mediocre Lakers squad.
Warriors and Jazz should be wins, but they're not exactly cupcakes, and we've seen that with TP out anything can happen
Golden State has been playing better as of late, and on the road no less. They'll be tough tomorrow, regardless if the Spurs show up or not. Utah is a dead stick, Spurs could prolly beat them without any of the Big 3.
