    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.
    Im going to make it pretty simple. Go look at the replay of the out of bounds call and tell me which team would you awarded the ball.
    Then explain to me why the refs didnīt.
    The insult here is that they crapped all over the fans (not clippers fans, or nba fans, basketball fans all over the workd) that stay up late to watch these games when thet ing call whatever they want to call no matter what is being displayed in millions of TVīs around the world.

    ed what up? Westbrook wasn't even involved in the play.
    The Westbrook 3 that they called CP3 a foul on.

    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..
    If only the Spurs had a LeBron type player though.

    So you're saying Westbrook didn't complain about the foul called on Paul that awarded him three free throws?

    I'm confused.

    I don't understand these fans that watch a league they believe is rigged, tbh..
    To disrupt the spurs offense you must allow a very physical game. By doing so the FT were few. Not to say that the Spurs closed the lane and Miami took mostly jumpers.

    Yes Clippers choked no doubt about that.

    But then again, the game was rigged.
    Of course the game was rigged. But the trick to beating the so-called Thunderrefs is to not give the refs a reason to intervene.

    That's the true name of the game, if you ask me.

    To beat them, you need to Clubber Lang them by psyching them out and putting them away early.

    It's a difficult task, I know, but it is most likely the only way.

    Didn't complain FOR a foul because he knew there wasn't any.

    So you think the NBA likes more attention focused on a racist owner and you haven't figured out that Durant is Jesus Christ/MVP? Also, why did the refs hand the game to the Thunderrefs if they wanted the Clippers to win?

    Blatant fix. Anybody outside of Oklahoma could see it.

    I'll be honest. I don't know if the Spurs can really win playing 5 v 8.
    They can't. I'm not even going to bother.

    I would have determined that there was enough possibility that Barnes knocked the ball out of bounds that there was not enough evidence to overturn the original call.

    The insult here is that they crapped all over the fans (not clippers fans, or nba fans, basketball fans all over the workd) that stay up late to watch these games when thet ing call whatever they want to call no matter what is being displayed in millions of TVīs around the world.
    I don't feel crapped on, it was an exciting finish. If I'm concerned about anything, it's the amount of isolation and selfish plays by players on both sides that gave the opponent great opportunities to steal the game. Ridiculously poor decisions and stupid shots.

    So you would have expected to see more excessive complaining in the split second between the shot and the whistle blowing?

    You guys have a really interesting perspective on the passage of real time.

    I'm not suggesting the NBA wanted the Clippers to win. I'm not suggesting there's any kind of fix, you guys are. I'm saying that's ridiculous.

    Sucks, doesn't it?

    Unless millions of basketball fans altogether stopped going to the games in a boycott and then all march to the NBA offices in New York in a mass protest, there is nothing we can do about this.

    I saw the same play you did, bro. You guys don't understand nuance is all. Everything is 100% black or white, and if it's called black when you see white, it's all a big fix. Why even watch?

    Barnes didnīt even touch it, replay it whatever times you need to realise that.
    Tell it to yourself if that makes you happy but that was a clear-water last touch of jackson.

    Iīm going to sleep so you can go party with Durant and Scott Brooks, but be aware, they are "not sure" if the ball was off barnes, so you might disagree with them two. Go convice them they are the celestial ones and have come to earth to save us from the diabolical miami big 3.

    I never will. I didn't even know there was a difference between bold and not bold, to be honest. Maybe one of the admins will bold your name since it seems like something that's important to you.
