It would appear that Joey Crawford would like to hand this series to the Thunder... the calls in the third quarter were beyond fucking absurd.

Well... congrats to the Thunder and the refs... way to beat the Spurs. It's just a shame it took such atrocious penalties against the Spurs for them to be able to do it. Westbrook shooting and falling down without anyone touching him and still getting a foul illustrated the FUCKING BULLSHIT perfectly.
The Thunder might have beaten my Spurs without the officials' help. Too bad the refs disagreed. :mad
You're right in all 4 of your posts, Retro. My beloved and I were screaming bloody murder at the TV when Westbrook slapped Kawhi Leonard in the back of the head and the ref's called Leonard for stepping out of bounds and ignored the foul.

Well that's Joey Crawford for you. He's had it in for us ever since the Tim Duncan altercation that got him suspended. I can't understand how that clown even still has a job... He's a fucking joke.
The officiating in the NBA is just absurd... And it's a big part of the reason why I don't regularly watch basketball anymore.

Miami/Boston going to game 7! I didn't watch the whole game, but apparently it was the King James Show.
was at work and missed the entire game.....thank goodness....Saturday night the East will be decided.....
I bet the refs have pooled their money and bought a truckload of Young Guns NBA Finals t-shirts. Let's see how the calls go.
LeBron put the entire team on his back and decided to play like he was Michael Jordan in his Hey Day.
I think Lebron just proved that he wants the spotlight all on him and cares not what the rest of the team does; true he is a great player but he still has four teammates on the floor with him it seems at times that he doesn't want to share. But until he wins it all he will be like a Dan Marino (great player, but no ring)
Unfortunately with that "team" unless someone steps up they lose. I hope Boston wins but they could not throw a ball in the ocean last night and were not fighting for rebounds. They seemed happy to throw up a ball from outside and run back down the floor. If Boston does not find aggressive play Saturday they lose.
agreed on all counts (i didn't watch any of the game) am hoping the team beats the dream
The Heat seemed to want it more last night. James was a one man wrecking crew. He played as hard as I have ever seen him play. No one on the Celtics was playing that hard. I was very disappointed it was not more competitive. Stayed double digit leads all night long.
Seems ironic that a spurs fan is complaining about bad calls and flopping on anyone given that the Spurs can easily eb considered one of the biggest flopping teams in the league and only second to the Karl Malone and John Stockton era of the Utah Jazz. Ginobili and parker should get a tony award after every game...
The spurs came out with a good sense of winning a game, but in the end the younger, more organized thunder seem to have simply worn out the much older and weathered team.
Be it the Heat and their one man wrecking crew with no rings (LOL) or the Celtic's experience and power - the finals are going to be a good watch!
i saw the entire game and my mind was blown at the lack of "want" from the celtics - they were simply absurd! Pierce can play much better than that... Rondo was well not himself!
any team facing elimination at home is something to fear... this game 7 will be something awesome to watch (i hope)
You watched the same game I watched. Also seemed on every shot there were 5 Heat players in the paint.
"We're not going nowhere...?" He was right indeed, they aren't going anywhere.
see ya next season
I will say this though, the Spurs three point set up is awesome, so many menacing shooters from the 3 point range.
and that 20 game win streak wasn't so bad....until they lost four in a row.......
impressive indeed... i just simply do not like the team!
ginobili and parker in my mind are a great part of bringing the nba's flopping epidemic lol not to say they are the only ones doing it but to me it seems like they just love doing it and every dumbass referee seems to fall for it.
so no, i don't like them and i am glad a young team like the thunder finally put a crack on their ego
