Nothing will happen partly because announcers refuse to call out the refs. Kerr defends the moving screen call and on the next play OK commits moving screens. Pathetic that refs decide a game like this. With neutral refs LAC wins easy

I actually think the Clippers have a better shot to win it all than OKC though.

I remember a similar play in the Clips-Warriors series. CP was bumped and fouled (by who, I don't remember), losing the ball out of bounds. They didn't call the foul, but awarded the ball to the Clippers. It was under 2 minutes, so they reviewed and gave it back to the Warriors. Followed the letter of the law, not the spirit. Why didn't they do the same here?


I actually don't have a problem with that. I'm livid abut the refs letting Paul get fouled and Westbrook gets to the line

Kerr was Baghdad. Bob during the game. Defending the refs every time the league needed it. How was that not a foul on Jackson after what happened on the other end?

I always defend the NBA is rigged talk and I still don't think it is but man that was a hard game to watch. Now the refs have started a precedent of "compensating" on fouls they miss when they review out of bounds. I have never seen that happen before. Wow!

Do you mean the strip on the last play? Did the help defender hit the ball or his arm? I can't see too good.

It was a terrible call, just awful. Honestly though, the refs sucked the whole game, that was just the humongous, overly sweet cherry on top.

Well actually it was two blown calls on the same play. CP3 when he lost it to Westbrook was a foul and then the out of bounds play. They could have just did a jump ball instead of just giving it to OKC.

Man, I wanna give credit to OKC but that "compensation" on the foul they missed for out of bounds is dangerous and quite frankly BS. OKC probably wins this series now but I hope NBA really cleans this for the remaining playoff games.

What about Paul fouling Ibaka with 1.8ish left? Was that not strong enough or did the refs just miss that? The intention was pretty obvious IMO.

I thought Jackson touched the ball again with his off hand, so the rule shouldn't apply here.

It was Jackson and it was a decent strip. I think sp6r's point stands though, that was about as much contact as Westbrook got on that 3PA. It's that call and the no-call on the intentional by Paul on Ibaka that I might take issue with. That Jackson call, on the other hand, was iffy, there's some room for interpretation there. But that's the one that everyone's going to attack.

Yeah, I'm also wondering why they didn't call that last intentional by CP on Ibaka. There were 3 seconds left...

They missed so much this game, I don't even know what to make of it, but I'm biased.

Yeah, I can understand that and appreciate that you are honest but as someone who doesn't really care who wins this series, it was a hard game to watch. OKC obviously rallied but that compensation call after the review, not calling the foul for CP on the other end, and some of the FTs Russ and KD took were a little soft.

Doc is probably getting a 50K fine tomorrow :lol:. He went off.
