OKC is going to be the first team in finals history to shoot 100 FTs in a game.

Refs def have a side

And not letting SGA bring the ball up anymore to save his energy from getting pressured.


Yup. And the other guys are the ones initiating offense, usually off a screen action, and SGA is playing off-ball. Which is kinda weird. But it's not been bad. I really expected them to go to Hartenstein with the 2 big starting lineup.

Section 7 if you don’t like my posts.

For what it’s worth, some Knicks fans on this forum who went to some games said they were blown away by how kind everyone was to them.


Nothing except extreme hospitality it’s kind of annoying


Honestly it is the way it should be. I hate moron fans who go at people for rooting for the road team.

Crap. I just picked up my 2nd foul on Williams.

I need to move to a chair farther away from the TV...

Why is ABC coverage so bad, picture and audio always going in and out. I can't be the only one with this problem.

The Pacers are shooting jumpers and OKC is making a bee line for the basket. Aggressive teams will get calls.

It's frustrating. Refs aren't suppose to have an impact like that. Ideally they're neutral, but I know they're not.

I'm shocked every time Lu Dort makes a 3. It looks like he is just tossing up a prayer every time, but it somehow keeps dropping in.
