I don't have a dog in this fight, but Durant should have fouled out with 6:00 left in the game.


If you're referring to Battier trying to go for the charge, then I really lost my shite right there. That was flatout bullshite.

Ya think the NBA wants this to go to 7? That bogus goaltending is HUGE now and then a no call on LeBron.


The no call was huge I agree, but a bogus goaltending that occurred in the first half was not huge and had no effect on the outcome of the game.

One said it was a foul one said it wasn't. And it took a few looks at slow motion to make up their minds. It was a questionable call. There were many in the game.


it really wasn't a questionable call, especially with the replay.

I don't like the play call anyway. Bring the ball to the top and play for a chance at the win

eh, it propelled Miami to a pretty good run. NBA refs suck for both sides.

standard NBA finals no call. that was a weak shot attempt which im sure durant wishes he had back. this is also why chalmers never gets the foul call because he drives to the hoop like a pussy 9x out of 10.

Wade got a foul call with almost no contact earlier in the game on a drive....doesn't sound like a standard to me.

It's tin foil worthy when a NBA Ref says the games are fixed?

I feel like this much everyone can agree on.


And the goaltending thing, Ibaka blocked the shot and then destroyed Bosh after, so he should have been at the FT line, not that big of a deal.

in slow-mo, it undoubtedably is a foul but that type of shot is hardly rewarded in the playoffs.

It seems like officials tend to swallow their whistles in the last min or so of the game, unless someone gets tackled.

The calls at the end of the game the Thunder fans will bitch about were not that ridiculous. The play with Durant was on the body and nothing on the arm. The Westbrook rebound was a contested rebound. Most people call for refs to swallow their whistles in these situations except for when it doesn't go their team's way.

As previously stated they didn't call a charge for Battier which would have fouled Durant out the game.

Dude, you can go through game film from nearly every single game and come up with double digit calls that were poor.

Stop bitching, frick

Exactly. As a Bulls fan, I find the OKC fans hilarious bitching about calls. Both teams got screwed in that game multiple times by the refs. Durant should have fouled out long before the play at the end anyway.

I think some things we can all agree on are Chalmers fricking blows, Wade cannot dribble, and Westbrook forces stupid jumpers.

Bosh played like a fricking boss tonight

16 pts, 15 rebs

He needs to play like that the rest of the series.

And Wade outside of the TO in the final minutes played pretty well.

This is going to be a fun series.
