Can somebody explain the tech on Timmy? I only got to watch the first quarter, but I saw on the stat sheet the Timmy tech. Was he arguing about a call or something?
Spurs need to nut up too though...too much respect for Thunder inside guys leading to missed opportunities on O.

Man Westbrook was just running over Patty & Tony, no doubt about it, however, the game was lost with that horrendous lineup Pop threw out their to start the 2nd half.
Kendrick Perkins pushed him in the back and Tim got a tech for it. No lie.
Any youtube clips on it? That's some major bs
Should be in the game thread or GIF thread.
Read our passing lanes well. No excuses for that one. We got checked.
They let themselves get flustered by the swarming defense of OKC and TURNOVERS, TURNOVERS, TURNOVERS! They score 30 ing points off turnovers and win by 12. Sure, you can't be perfect but even if they didn't go for those stupid little pocket passes in the heaviest traffic, they're in with a chance.
the refs for teching Duncan as well, that's some bull right there.
the calls i didn't like:
phantom foul on kawhi setting a screen
the tech on duncan
danny green non shooting foul
and the no call on chimp tripping up patty and getting an easy steal n layup
the refs were not gonna let us win this game, but we looked done in the third anyway. b2b and 5in7 will do that to you.
One of the issues is that some of our shooters (mostly Green and Beli) are so used to getting WIDE open shots that they kept passing on decent shots, forcing some other players to take horrible shots to beat the shot clock. Green and Beli need to grow a pair and shoot when they get a decent opportunity, because those WIDE open shots aren't coming against such a committed defense, not matter how many extra passes you make.
Mills let it fly and the difference was obvious.
The passing wasn't crisp last night. Spurs will have to string together 4 perfect games to beat Thunder in the playoffs.
Good eyes. On top of this, last night we got some horse calls (two no-calls on Ibaka fouling Timmy on layups close to halftime, Kawhi's touch foul on the screen, and the idiotic double technical on Timmy and Fatty Perkins), and Beli couldn't hit the side of a barn.
Not going to blame the officials here.
Beli couldn't convert because he was covered.
Patty Mills because of his size is alway used to being covered, so he scored by finding his shot.
Green was also tentative, he should know that in this type of a game, he's shouldn't expect wide open shots.
It is a good thing they lost. Regular season wide open shots are not going to be there in a playoff game.
Pop didn't give a about this game, if he did he would of played Manu and Kawhi would of started the 3rd. Pop saw what he needed to see in the 1st half of the game.
I think it would of been a different game if the spurs had any energy.....spurs just ran out of gas while the thunder was on full gas.....plus you can add that the refs were giving the game away but that's just my opinion....spurs lost one game no biggie ....time to rest up and get back on track
I will make it easy for yall.....spurs were just tired
No big deal, Thunder had thier starters till the end & really couldn't put away our bench!
Not too worried, Manu coulda been out X-factor!
The Spurs are clearly scared of OKC. They get stagefright every time the two teams meet. They start uncharacteristically throwing the ball away and turning the ball over, they start missing easy chips at the rim, and missing wide open jumpers that they normally hit in their sleep.. they clearly get over excited and rattled. They scramble around and just can't seem to execute. They are clearly intimidated. Parker seems to be the most rattled of the Spurs, and he's our engine, he's our quarterback.... The Spurs do not appear confident when they play OKC. They seem very tentative.

if the refs do what they did yesterday, does not help the team to change their style of play, at the time of balance, the Spurs will be removed from the game. Yesterday was only five minutes full assaulto (like game 6), and voila, the game got out of control.
Don't blame it on the refs. That's a cop out..
Spursfan's go-to move with the Thunder is to blame the refs.
I'm not saying the Spurs didn't get jobbed in 2012 Game 6, but still...it's gotten annoying. The Spurs are going to have to learn to beat the Thunder with the refs, because they aren't going anywhere.
Seriously. Look at the game thread...half of the posts are people whining about the officiating. People completely ignore how our players were missing easy shots and making mistakes and just focus on every call the refs made.
