I'm rooting for Houston only because their best players are all players no one wanted. Harden, Lin, Asik, even Parsons who was taken only in the 2nd round. A team of underdogs!

Not sure that is fair. Who didn't want Lin, Asik, Harden when they were signed or traded to Houston?

Knicks didn't even offer Lin a contract. GSW wouldn't give up Klay Thompson for Harden. Only Houston offered Asik a contract.

Don't forget Washington wouldn't give up Beal either.

Refs are favoring the Nets.

The Knicks were set to match the contract Morey initially offered. Lin then went back and asked for more.

Oh man, soon as reggie evans started dribbling that on the break I knew he wasn't giving it up

Wow did they really foul Westbrook on a 3pt play? smh.

WenningtonGuy · Post #70 » by **WenningtonGuy** » Sat Feb 23, 2013 2:09 am

I seriously can't stand OKC. How do they get so many calls going their way and none for the Wolves? Just absurd.

PurpleRooster · Post #71 » by **PurpleRooster** » Sat Feb 23, 2013 2:09 am

Its hilarious that the wolves can't get a whistle around the rim, but the thunder get three to end the half...wow.

SweetTouch · Post #72 » by **SweetTouch** » Sat Feb 23, 2013 2:09 am

Damn Rubio was hacked

And still made it

Props

The ball goes up, and a foul

Refs need to learn how a defensive player fouls

Omg 40 pt. lead for indiana

Derrick Williams definitely got mugged earlier with no call.

Damn. Did they really give Westbrook the three FTs?

And no one knows more than I do that he needs to learn how to finish around the rim, but he should have at least 6 more FT attempts.

NaturalThunder · Post #78 » by **NaturalThunder** » Sat Feb 23, 2013 2:11 am

Good news? OKC's offense is still really good, especially at home, and they scored 66 points in the first half.

Bad news? Our atrocious defense gave up 58 first half points to the Timberwolves.

PurpleRooster · Post #79 » by **PurpleRooster** » Sat Feb 23, 2013 2:12 am

That being said, Westbrook was fouled...but I mean so have the wolves multiple times around the rim.

Tie game in Toronto.
