I want the Atlanta Hawks to beat the Cleveland Cavaliers , but I think that's not going to happen . Cavaliers are going to win the series .

The only playoff team I'll root for in the East or West are the Blazers. I don't like any other team

Damn..Hawks down 18 have come back and now only down by 1. Making the Cavs sweat..24-7 run makes you feel better about the runs they pulled on our guys. lol

Olynyk's spirit is still haunting Love.

Don't even venture over to the GB. Cavs fans bitching about how the refs are swallowing their whistles every time Bron gets in the paint...smh. Dude's been getting the superstar treatment for a decade. I don't know whether to laugh or cry.

Horford better be injured because he's looking wack on the court.

OKC's defense is so ugly.

Marvel · Post #748 » by **Marvel** » Tue May 3, 2016 3:43 am

Why is OKC slowing the pace....Spurs want them to play the half court game.

Oh man, anyone else just see Durant and Westbrook arguing with each other on the sideline? Love it

Shamrock · Post #750 » by **Shamrock** » Tue May 3, 2016 3:49 am

Give credit to Aldridge, he's adapted well to the Spurs.

Since I'm not one to wish an injury on a player like Westbrook, can I just wish KD and Russ punch each other out due to frustration?

OKC about to take game 2 in San Antonio. Damn.

Refs ruining the playoffs as usual.

That didn't need to happen. Serge almost cost his team a win. Narrow escape.

Chris webb went off on those pathetic excuse for refs. How do you miss that call? You're staring RIGHT at it! Disgusting. Absolutely disgusting.

Afam · Post #755 » by **Afam** » Tue May 3, 2016 4:13 am

That should have been a foul on the Thunder.

Yunsen · Post #756 » by **Yunsen** » Tue May 3, 2016 4:14 am

I don't even know how to react to the ending of Thunder-Spurs. Webber is going insane at the no call saying the Spurs could have drawn up a play but they had the ball and a timeout to do it if they wanted to. There's been a lot of terrible calls at the end of games before but the Spurs still had a good chance even with the no call.

ConstableGeneva · Post #757 » by **ConstableGeneva** » Tue May 3, 2016 4:16 am

Stevens would've called a timeout with 5 seconds left lol. Spurs had nothing once Thunder recovered after initial scramble for the loose ball.

Blatant push-off right in front of Marc Davis. Wow. Manu didn't even need to flop there.

We need a "Coach's Challenge".
Like they have in the NFL, and like what is being used in the D-League.

This Spurs-OKC turnout was totally ridiculous.
Everyone needs to be held more accountable, including and especially the refs.

Shamrock · Post #759 » by **Shamrock** » Tue May 3, 2016 4:26 am

Very frustrating loss for the Spurs, Thunder were practically handing them the game.
