Barkley justifying the refs right now. And even Kenny Smith is saying it still looks like the Clips might've touched the ball last. smh. I guess TNT doesn't want to get in trouble with the league.
OKC starting to look like a team of destiny.

Rivers: "We got robbed, period."
Rivers admits that Barnes fouled Jackson (uncalled) on the play though.
Durant is going to get every call when they play the Spurs. It's fairly obvious that they want another Durant vs Lebron Finals. Lebron will own Durant again.
"destiny"
Sounds about right.
Destiny
a predetermined course of events often held to be an irresistible power or agency
Barkley going full re trying to justify this on TNT.
I grapple with it each year. Sometimes I do believe we are watching BBall version of WWE.
The fix accusations are ridiculous. Why would they miss the foul call in the first place if they were looking for an opportunity to give it to the Thunder?
After the game 4 steal in Memphis when they had the game and this crap tonight, yeah it does. Memphis should have beaten them in 5 games honestly but blew their shot, so yes they do look like a team of destiny.
Because they thought it was Thunders Ball and they werent expecting a replay so clear that they were mistaken.
Plus, i am pretty sure CP3 is fouled on that turnover because westbrook reaches but contacts both of his arms.
So why did they give it to OKC when it was clear that it was off of Jackson?
Why would they call a foul on Paul when he stood straight up and barely touched Westbrook?

Unless it's 100% clear they can't overturn it.
Paul clearly fouled Westbrook's arm.
Spurs just need to overcome the officiating like Miami did last year, tbh..
The Heat shot the least amount of FTs in Finals history against the Spurs in the Finals, and the same occurred against Indiana in the ECFs..
If the Heat can beat a historic FT disparity, the Spurs can, as well, tbh..
That's a lot of conspiracy to plan in a few split seconds' time.
Play happens --> "Hmm, appears the ball went out on the Clippers so even though we're trying to help the Thunder win, they will likely be better off taking the ball out of bounds than taking two free throws with the potential to tie the game. After all, we can always call a touch foul on the next play, which could potentially be a 3-point shot! MWA HA HA HA. Cheers to evil!" --> Decides not to call foul
It was 110% clear
Westbrook wasn't even complaining because he knew he ed it up
I'll probably catch some flack here when I say that it's not entirely on the refs for the Clippers' loss. LAC made so many crucial errors and turnovers that led to their collapse. If they, not counting that Paul turnover on the last play, would have just taken better care of the ball, then they wouldn't be in a position where the refs could come in and ultimately decide the fate of the game.
What conspiracy? why not go to the review when you are see its OKC ball? if the replay was debatable call stands.
Surprise for the zebras it was pretty clear the ball belonged to Clippers.
Yes Clippers choked no doubt about that.
But then again, the game was rigged.
Yeah the NBA definitely doesn't want the inspirational story of the Clippers players courageously overcoming their racist owner and all of the distractions surrounding him to make the NBA Finals. Plus we all know the NBA's historical bias towards teams from booming metropolises like Oklahoma City over teams from podunk towns like Los Angeles.
More likely they donīt want a team owned by a racist to win .
ed what up? Westbrook wasn't even involved in the play.
The Miami Heat shot the least amount of FTs in Finals history last year against the beloved, small-market Spurs that always get killed by the refs..
I don't understand these fans that watch a league they believe is rigged, tbh..
