This isn't about the refs in game 6. The thunder made clutch shots in each of the last 3 games. The thunder earned this series and deserve to be in the finals. As much of a spurs fan as I am, I'm not going to believe that there was a conspiracy theory by the league to keep the spurs out of the finals.

"We" didn't steal anything. They came. We support. Fan support gets no better than in OKC. What are we supposed to do? Boycott the games because we felt it was not right to move the team? I rest my case. And - the team was horrible when thy showed up. We had KD. The other pieces were questionable at the time. Risky you might say. We developed them And made smart moves trade wise

Also, please learn how to correctly write in English before you talk . It doesn't make you sound as dumb.. just saying
at OKC fan. You guys are probably gonna get Miami.
Who do you think is gonna get the calls? You haven't done yet.
I know what he was saying. Your city didn't have to struggle through a long period to get to the finals. Also, your team didn't have to play against a bunch of hall-of-famers, in their prime. That said, your team is pretty damn good. Enjoy it while it lasts.
Most don't talk . I don't. And as I stated- we Sucked when the team came here. 3-29. Yeah we got better gradually an quickly, but we still sucked.
Your team has a core group of players that are 22-23 yrs old. With the right coach and the right GM (you're welcome, btw), that team is going to be good for a LONG time.
Is it? That would explain a lot..
So you just discredited yourself. I guess the league is rigged.
lol this isn't a Thunder fan.
They wouldn't remember this.![]()
Umm, you have another series to look forward to. Why the would you waste any more time on this forum lol?
More class.![]()
lol of course the league is rigged. However, games,3,4 and 5 we won fair and square. Game 6 was a a mixture of good offense and refs lol just thought I brought up that phoenix vs spurs series with the bogus ref job.
1999 a young 23 year old tim duncan got the spurs their first championship in a short season just like young 23 year old Kevin Durant will do. It just so happens the Spurs was in his way![]()
Much appreciated. Class act.![]()

I never said it was only rigged when Spurs lose, for all I know some of the past games that were critical to the Spurs winning could have been rigged. It all depends on whats on Sterns agenda. This year he wants OKC and Miami
i gotta tl;dr this one as well
3/10
I know, sorry. I kind of said that in regard to whatever someone else here kept saying in some other threads, so I wasn't really directing it at you. I assumed he would read it. ANyways, I said in another thread in response to the NBA being rigged (to this guy) - so you're saying those Spurs les were assisted by Stern too? He was like...well no man, we won all 4 of ours straight up. The refs let them play unimpeded. During those years, there was no star on any other team that Stern had an incentive to promote. I'll admit to the bad calls in game 6. A few were bad, a few were borderline that just went OKC's way. But I do not subscribe to the NBA being rigged.
Back in 07, Spurs swept Cleveland. Seems Stern would have wanted to get another game in there, make it a little more interesting. The world surely wanted to see Lebron on that big stage and so did those who would profit from it. So why no fix? Would've made perfect sense to me - if in fact you subscribe to this conspiracy crap.
No reasonable person is arguing that the fix was in. For the nation's 45th TV market? That's ridiculous.
Skewed 2nd half calls in a game where the margin of error was tiny - yeah that happened.
I think most Spurs fans agree the better team moved on - just would have liked to have seen it happen a bit more legit down the stretch.
Someone is a little defensive, speaks the one with the big ass * with refs hanging onto it! LOL! Lebroom is going to win it all! It's being setup right now as we speak! LOL!
If the fix was in, I would think that Stern would have tried to ensure a Heat vs. Lakers finals. There was no David Stern conspiracy against the spurs. The thunder earned that series.
Last I checked...
LA Lakers: 41-25
Dallas Mavericks: 30-28
Combined record of Thunder playoff Opponents through 2 rounds: 71-53
LA Clippers: 40-26
Utah Jazz: 30-28
Combined record of Spurs playoff Opponents through 2 rounds: 70-54
I don't see that much difference.

I don't think the league was rigged. What you are seeing here through most of the complaining is a fan base that feels cheated. Flip the story around and say the Thunder lost to the Spurs on a similar ELIMINATION game, and describe what you would feel. If you can tell me that you wouldn't feel angry or cheated, I will call you a ing liar on not a fan of the game at all. The Spurs franchise is easily one of the most successful franchises in professional sports and one would think they would have at least some degree of respect from the NBA officiating. I am not saying make every call against their opponent, but at least make the same calls on both ends. The referees lacked any sort of consistency in the second half of game 6. What was called in favor for the Thunder, wasn't a call for the Spurs. That is all any true fan of sports wants from a game. Is letting the team decide who wins.
u obviously never going to get any respect in these forums - im going to be lol'ing when you get destroyed in the finals - hopefully you will show up again
please dont hide in the darkest corners of the world
btw, we already know who you are - your tweeting is killing you
