Melo didn't have to really play the 4th quarter. Now gets to take the summer off while knowing he is going to collect 26 million dollars

Don't know if Melo is actually winning or losing :/

Our crowd has a rep for being awesome in support, but in all honesty, they are a bunch of dicks in a bag. VERY disappointed in our fans.

Having said that, I'm really disappointed in Russ that he couldn't shake hands with Mitchell and Gobert and Ingles. Dude ran for the exit without being a man.

Disgraceful.

due to the chippyness of the game the fans were going be hell

If it was the other way around you be upset too...This is coming from someone who wants Utah too win the series

Dude back in the day all the Utah fans were mad about the push off. The reality is not only did Jordan push off but he hacked the F out of Malone’s arm to get the ball in the first place.

Was I mad? No, Jordan was better at cheating the same as he was better at everything else. My guys had hacked and cheated to get there too.

Sometimes you gotta hack and cheat a little better.

Westbrook isn't the reason you were in the game. He's the reason you lost. Elimination game and the stupid shots he was taking in the 4th is just ridiculous. Tremendous athlete but if they had an IQ test to make it in the NBA he'd be out.

dude shutup

He's insanely talented. He needs a coach to get the most out of him.

When he went cold, he got into it a little in the transition game. But then he went back to shooting the 3 when his teammates were missing shots. I wonder how he'd do with Boogie and a hard core former player coach. You know, someone to dump the ball in to sometimes, and a coach to get him to stop betting everything on the long range shot.

Absolutely nothing wrong with that. You hate the other team.

First Oladipo, now George. Westbrook is the problem. Okc will never win a championship with him as the first option.

Refs def missed the call but this has gotta be the dumbest thing i've read so far. Which league wouldnt want a game 7? Ratings would be off the roof. And not to mention, even if it was rigged, NBA would much rather want OKC to make it through for ratings

Read on Twitter

Just to keep this angle in the discussion. Not sure how to take it.

The only justification for the ref not making this call is to not make it in the remainder of the entire 2018 playoffs. Anybody wanna guess what the odds on that are?

This is it. I hate the call, but they call it religiously. If they didn't, George wouldn't have thrown it up. The inconsistency is the problem.

Fixed it for you

I honestly don’t have joy thinking about we almost signed Melo. Just feeling sad for him, and OKC. It’s so clear that with Grant on the court OKC is a much better team (even if that means we have to live with more Russ heavy offense).

Wow. From that angle it looks like a great no-call.
Gobert tried to avoid the contact as George tried to jump into him and the result was very little contact at all.

check the legs/footwork at very least. would have made contact affecting the shot... he bit on the pump and should have been penalized

BS defense for these refs/NBA.

Nothing in the rulebook says that you can't jump to the left or the right of the offensive player. It doesn't matter that he bit on a pumpfake. He wasn't jumping into the offensive player.

Thunder had possession from 1:08 - 0:18, 50 seconds straight, and they missed 6 straight shots.
