Refs!

:oldlol: @ Ref compalins

OKC FTM-A: 28-32

MEM FTM-A: 18-31

It's not OKC's fault Memphis can't hit their free throws.

[Angel Face]

Oh! and the supposed to be "FT King" only had 6 FTA.

[JimmyMcAdocious]

Never understood the equal free throw argument. What's the odds that both teams get to the line the same amount? Different teams, different stylistic approach, different players... If a team shoots 10 more free throws than perhaps that team earned 10 more free throws?

Not that this relates to the thread. Sort of. But I'm tired of people acting like both teams need to shoot the same amount. If that's the case, then get rid of free throws all together and take the ball out.

[TMT]

The free throw attempt argument is for amateur viewers in passing who like to follow the box scores as opposed to the actual games.

[juju151111]

Oh! and the supposed to be "FT King" only had 6 FTA.
Wasn't one of those a technical foul? So it should be 5

[J Shuttlesworth]

So Memphis, a team whose two main scorers are post players, got the same amount of free throws as OKC, a team whose two main scorers are in the backcourt. I see your angle. Rigging indeed :rockon:

[HoopsFanNumero1]

Points in the paint
OKC - 34
Grizz - 50

This doesn't even include a series of bad calls that completely stopped the Grizzlies' momentum in the 4th when they were down 3 or 5, I believe; the most important of which was the bogus 5th foul on Z-Bo.

How dare you bring context into this. The box score says it was equal!

So there are so called professional viewers as well. How much are they paid? Would like to take that job.

Also, I watched the whole game and the calls are just and fair.

[russwest0]

Just let them keep on whining. :oldlol:

It's a good way of separating the retards on here with agendas and everyone else apart.

[russwest0]

OKC blows a 25 pt lead all the way down to 5, not getting any calls

"KD choker!!!!"

OKC pulls their shit together and plays more aggresive, gets calls again

"Refs!!!!"

:lol :lol :lol Shit is hilari.

[Yankstar]

Where is your king now branstans? :roll:

[zoom17]

Where is your king now branstans? :roll:

How was that choke today:oldlol:

[RoseCity07]

Just give Durant a ****in grey shirt and let him call his own fouls.

[Akrazotile]

The refs just call too many fouls. Its a league wide problem. It's an embarrassment.

Pretty much this. Also, it's funny to hear when Lebron stans calling someone a choker. They must have forgotten their roots.

[russwest0]

Also, FYI for those who don't know, the foul call totals go up in the playoffs.

This litte generic belief tossed around that "Player X isn't going to do shit because the refs swallow their whistles in the playoffs" is stupid as hell.

Joey Crawford has officiated in the Finals like 30 times and we still got niqqas believing that the playoff officials are the cream of the crop and the good ones that call less fouls :lol

Sounds like you in every HEAT GT

[J Shuttlesworth]

I'm not trying to pin this game on the refs, but do you OKC fans honestly believe Randolph's 5th foul was legit? It came at a very important time too when the Grizz had cut the lead to 4, and he had to sit out for a while after it.

[J Shuttlesworth]

Sounds like you in every HEAT GT
lol true. I see that dude complain about refs more than anyone I know. He still brings up refs from the finals 2 years ago... I still see him complain about it every day.

Hm, sounds almost like games 2-4 in the 2012 Finals where KD got the weakest bullshit called on him to take him out of the game always leading to a Miami run.

[turnaroundJ]

Well if you actually watched the game then you'd know where this ref/Thunder hate is coming from. There was a complete momentum swing when Randolph got his 5th and that charge wasn't called which led to the Butler dunk. There were a lot more too throughout.

We got robbed of a close contest down the line.

And for the record, Durant WAS completely shook and absolutely useless in the 3rd.

[J Shuttlesworth]

Difference is homie, I call out the refs when they **** over teams OKC is playing as well. The refs shit all over the Spurs in 2012. :confusedshrug:

Problem is yall are way too predictable and only call them out when it fits your agenda. I've wrote short essays on here about the history of this league and how it was rigged. I do the research.

Yall just want to whine to discredit whichever teams/players you don't like.

Randolph should of been called for more fouls earlier. The amount of offensive fouls he commits to get low post position is ridiculous.

shows how big of a jackass you are bruh.

We laugh at yall because LeBron gets the 3rd most FTA of all time for a playoff run in 2011 yet yall stay silent and come out whining because KD gets SIX ****ing freethrows. Pure comedy son. Yall are entertainers, I'll give you that. But unlike Budadiiii, 9er, myself, Jabbar, etc, we ain't laughing with you, we laughing at yall.

russwest0 ****ing raped in this thread lolol you know it cus his posts get even more retarded than usual

[Phantom_Blue]

Even Hubie was questioning alot of those calls that swung the momentum.

I don't mind if refs call ticky tack stuff, but at least be consistent about it, its like they couldn't make up their mind what kind of game they wanted this to be.

Memphis is a physical team, so if they're not going to let Memphis play that way, then they would have to adjust to how its being called. But the refs need to stick to their shit as well.

Either way, Memphis knows where they ****ed up, and they should be feeling pretty good that despite their horrid shooting, they were able to grind their way back.

Since when do post players get more FT's than perimeter players?

Since when does a team who scores more in the paint than the other team generally not get more FTs? Unless you have Durant, that is.

I don't have to be a Durant hater to recognize he's gotten some unfair treatment in his favor. Russwest himself openly says that the Thunder were gifted WCF in 2012 (not that I 100% agree). But to answer your question, I'm a LeBron/Heat stan who likes KD. Saying Durant has earns all his free throws is BS. I'll even be the first to tell you LeBron doesn't earn all his free throws, especially when he was on Cleveland. To act like a superstar earns 100% of his freethrows is foolish. Jordan didn't either.

[J Shuttlesworth]

Lol thats actually a good question.

Silver on the other line of those headphones :lol
I figure they're probably talking to the video team and saying "Do you have angle from this side" or "rewind that shit, and put it in slow-mo"... Probably just to communicate on the video replay.

[sc19]

That's because the game was a blow out. Refs didn't need to intervene at all. Had it been closer, the fts disparity would be higher for Durant.

.......you are delusional. kd earns all his freethrows because of his skinny ****ing frame. he is a bag of bones! lebron also earns his freethrows. so did jordan(even though i think hes overrated). quit being a mental midget and understand there are always gonna be bad calls, but they are anomalies.

How does your frame make you earn your free throws? So a bigger guy shouldn't get the same calls KD gets just because of his frame? And you're calling me delusional? :biggums:

In the NHL there is a group of guys in a single room in New York City that review plays and tell the refs their opinions and what the call should be.

Maybe in the NBA and NFL they do the same thing.

I've seen too many Thunder games this year to say that KD has earned all his free throws. I've seen many that were very questionable, and it seems he always gets the benefit of the doubt. Players who drive in the paint are far more susceptible to contact than Durant. After Durant/Harden, the next players with the highest FTA in the league are Howard, Griffin, and Cousins. All guys who score points in the paint, not perimeter players.

For the record, I don't think this game was rigged. I'm referring to things I've seen this season.

[Fawker]

nonetheless, i think breen and van gundy have tremendous influence on those refs in those 2 minutes
