That's fine but when Dirk's FTAs go up it is because of aggression. When the Thunder get to the line against the Mavs it is bad reffing.

Mavericks guard Delonte West admitted that he felt weak in Game 1, after spending much of Friday and Saturday dealing with what he suspects was food poisoning.

"I feel much better," he said Sunday. "Headache's almost gone. I would say I'll be 100-percent [for Game 2]."

West said he slept fairly well Saturday night, and was able to eat a little more, although he wasn't quite finished with the aftereffects.

At about 3 p.m. Sunday, he tweeted: "I think that's the last of it. I feel like my soul just tried to get out my body."

We're going to win by 10+ today.

Recuperated Delonte means westbrook will be under control.

I do believe Dirk should have gotten a couple more foul calls.

When Ibaka plays him physical Dirk has to fight back at little more.

If he pushes, push him back.

OKC is HELLBENT on not allowing a repeat of last year, and I most certainly don't blame them.

Ibaka needs to get in foul trouble.

OKC doesn't play Dirk any more physically than Dallas plays KD. If Dirk deserves more FTAs, so does Durant.

fallacy · Post #327 » by **fallacy** » Mon Apr 30, 2012 8:57 pm

OKC is 4-1 (6-1 if you count preseason) against Dallas this year and yet if you talk to dallas fans, OKC has never beat Dallas

Dallas is 1-0 against OKC
The refs are 4-0 against Dallas

This **** is getting ridiculous. Both Kidd and Carlisle have been fined this year for making comments about the refs after OKC games.

Guess what the first main subject Carlisle talked about after the game yesterday? Dirk's offensive foul against Ibaka. God damn Dallas people, calm down.

Jim Carrey should of already displayed his coaching dominance Saturday night instead of letting Michael J. Fox outwit him.

LOL! I always thought about the Jim Carrey one but the Michael J Fox one is new and actually spot on!!!

Too bad KD doesn't like to drive to the hoop that much...i rarely see him get stopped while trying to drive to the hoop... if he did, he could make it alot easier for the Thunder.

For the Season
Shots at Rim
OKC-25.0
Dal-21.3

3-9 Feet
OKC-9.0
Dal-11.0

10-15 Feet
OKC-7.7
Dal-10.5

16-23 Feet
OKC-17.5
Dal-16.9

3PA
OKC-20.0
Dal-22.2

FTA
OKC-27.8
Dal-17.5

I don't see where OKC plays mostly inside and deserving fouls if anything I think they are similar to Dallas being a jump shooting team.

I don't understand how Harden ranks in the top 10 in FTA

Harden-31.4 MPG
At Rim-3.4
3-9 Feet-0.8
10-15 Feet-0.1
16-23 Feet-1.0
3PA-4.7
FTA-6.0

Wade-33.2 MPG
At Rim-6.7
3-9 Feet-2.8
10-15 Feet-2.1
16-23 Feet-4.3
3PA-1.1
FTA-6.1

See I don't understand how Harden gets more calls than Wade when Harden is clearly much more of a jumpshooter and Wade goes inside much more and is a Superstar.

Game 1

OKC 3P-16 FGA
Dal 3P-22 FGA

OKC FT-20
Dal FT-25

OKC -31 Shots inside 9 Feet
Dal -37 Shots inside 9 Feet

I just don't see the reason for the Free throw Discrepancy . Every game Dallas takes more shots inside 9 feet but have less Free Throw Attempts

Now I actually thought this game was called close with the exception of:

Carter called for Charging when Harden was clearly moving- Leads to a 3 PT shot by Ibaka

Dirk called for a foul on Ibaka - Given the And 1 which would have put the Mavs up 3

Officiating just sucks when you play in OKC, it's a combination of their crowds, and their players looking to initiate contact and drawing fouls. It's just cliche to point out at this point. Game 1 was better than I expected, so I don't blame the loss on it at all.
