nice jinx tbh
oh u mad
son I dislike OKC more this year now that Terry is crapping the bed in Boston.
they didn't have a real go-to guy during crunch minutes and dirk was not even half the player we know in our memories. mavs have actually improved their squad over last season and they will be a legit 2nd round team if dirk returns to his top form, at least they will not get swept by OKC this season if they meet them again in the playoffs
I was about to ask you what you meant by "contender" in the other thread. 2nd round team? That's pretty generous still, but maybe. Dirk will never be Dirk again. He's fading. Carter is fading. Marion is solid, but fading. Elton Brand/Chris Kaman are medicore backup bigs, but incredibly slow and poor defenders. Their interior defense is about as bad as it gets. They have some nice pieces in Collison and Mayo, but they're too old, too slow to go anywhere.
Still, the refs were needed to beat the Mavs.
I guess Mavs dont care about this season.
I don't think OKC has ever won a game without the help of officiating.Still, the refs were needed to beat the Mavs.
Durant gets paraded to the FT line over and over, it's ridiculous. Nice to see the Mavs taste their own . But both of these franchises repulse me. As well as their fans.
Durant gets fouled over and over. He's 6'11 with go-go gadget arms. Try and guard his ass without fouling him. It's next to impossible. Is it really a revelation to you that great players shoot a lot of free throws? They're given some superstar calls, always have been and always will, but it really boils down to the fact that the great scorers get to the line because they are unguardable. Go ahead and refute that fact.Durant gets paraded to the FT line over and over, it's ridiculous. Nice to see the Mavs taste their own . But both of these franchises repulse me. As well as their fans.
Good thing, you also see it that way!I don't think OKC has ever won a game without the help of officiating.
They really haven't, tbh...I don't think OKC has ever won a game without the help of officiating.
The Clippers make TWO fewer trips to the foul line per game than OKC. It's really time to get over it.
Thunder: +6.2 FTA differential overall, +6.3 FTA differential at home
Clippers: +0.3 FTA differential overall, -0.2 (NEGATIVE!) FTA differential at home
22.3% of OKC's total points come from freebies, the highest percentage in the NBA... despite the fact that they're a jump shooting team, a higher percentage of their points come from free throws than from three pointers....
Only 16.7% of the Clippers' total points come from free throws, that's the same percentage as Miami, and both are 22nd in the league in that category....
Superstars get plenty of BS calls based on favoritism. Nowitzki, Durant, Malone, Jordan, Kobe, etc have enjoyed the benefit of consistently kind whistles during their careers. Obviously superstars are of a higher talent level and more difficult to guard, that is a given. Durant gets many phantom foul calls though. I love Durant, he and Martin are the only Thunder players I like. Durant will one of the all time greats, there is no doubt.
Quit dreaming, scrah, TOSBaggery is well set into Nazi Dirk, there is no coming back from that!
Sure he does (not sarcasm). I realize KD is going to get his calls. Like you said, he's a superstar. However, a good majority of fouls on KD are legit- a reflection of his talent and the fact that he's much more difficult to defend than your average player. Same goes with Westbrook.
whats your point? Different teams, different players, different stats. OKC earns their charity shots.
Yeah, KD really earns those freebies... must be agonizing, getting breathed on and looked at by opposing defenders all the time

Dirk wished he had the talent of Durant.
