It's just a coincidence

[polandprzem]

Because that logic is re ed... the same that the dude saying refs will give the game to the Spurs if is close... in OKC... .... .... .... it is too hard to accept its rigged?
Lol When Pop went to complain to the refs about the last call of game 2 they were putting their jackets on and walking away from the crime scene, I bet they were too busy had other things to do and the place was cold hence the jackets.

Mauer was such a then. He just gave ignore face and he knew they ed up big time.

I know I saw it.
Why be coy about the Durant call? Why not just flat state "take a look at Adams swinging his feet out to trip Danny and you reporters tell me what you think about that?"
It will not get Col Sanders Laker results.
But fark, at least bring it up.
That asshole Adams swings his feet and tries (or does) trip all game long.

FWIW, ESPN's Legler and Russillo were discussing that no call this morning. Legler was talking saying that the ref was probably solely concentrating on Greens potentially fouling Durant while Durants shooting, not Green being tripped. Still bull though.

They haven't done it yet, why would they start now?



It was close when Adams caught the ball, but if it's in doubt, the refs will ALWAYS blow the whistle to stop play...except last night.



I never understand this logic. The game is 48 minutes long. If your close late, then you have every right to win as much as the other team regardless of what's happened before. How many times has GS pulled ty games out late?

The refs are supposed to be removed from who deserves to win the game. Their job is strictly to call violations. You can play like for 47 minutes, but if they game is close and you get fouled, or the other teams travels, or elbows a player on the inbounds, etc., you should get the call.

Thanks.

I can understand the refs missing the "trip". But what's inexcusable is missing Leonard's intentionally fouling Westbrook. That's situational referring 101. You know the foul is coming...yet he lets it go?? What was Kawhi supposed to do? Throw him to the floor??

You guys are the biggest whining cry babies. Plenty of bad calls both ways. You lost. Thunder were better last night. The first step is acceptance...

Its sickening we have to rely so much on the outcome of games based on the calls rather than the actual play of the 2 teams. Spurs played like garbage in the 1st quarter and did some good things to have a chance at the end. However when the game is so tight its so easy for them to sway the outcome. Much harder to do in 20 point games.

[BermudaSooner]

There is also that 24 sec voiliation, which should stop that fast break.

It was only a fast break because the Spurs had their heads up their asses. When the ball was rebounded, at least 4, and probably 5 Spurs were back.

What a stupid call to cry about.

[daslicer]

They are a team that historically gets phantom fouls but it's not surprising.

[DarrinS]

Two calls really pissed me off in that game.

One was a missed foul on Westbrook on Kawhi at around 4:00 left in the 4th qtr. Kawhi steals a pass, leading to a dunk at the other end, but WB hits Kawhi right in the head.

Last play on this video





The other is Adams sticking out a leg to trip Green, who then falls into and "fouls" Durant.

Every team needs a superstar. After Tim's regress, this team has nobody to carry them. Kahwi and LA are only all-stars the most. Need to get a free agent next season and blow-up the team.

Lol Both ways when your team had all the calls during the closing in 2 games on the road, stick to your meth dawg
