great series thread.

If Clips can beat OKC I think they can beat SA. IMO they match up better with SA.

But its gonna be tough to OKC 2 more times, KD and westbrook is so good. CLippers wont get away with defending KD like that again and if they try to double hes gonna do much better passing out of it.

The big X factor has to Iblaka. Dude keeps hitting those midrange shots really hurts along with Butler in stretching them out

FUCK THIS GAME. 3 fucking blown fucking calls. First the fucking non call on the steal on CP3 from westbrook when they fucking ran into his ass. Then the BS ass call going for OKC. The CP gets his fucking arm hacked and he loses the ball and again no call.

FCUK YOU OKC AND THE REFS ABSOLUTELY FUCK YOU. I HOPE OKC NEVER WINS FUCKING SHT. IF CLIPPERS DONT WIN THIS I WILL ROOT FOR MIAMI TO FUCKING DESTROY ANY TEAM THEY FACE IN THE WEST.

ANd fuck Inside NBA crew for saying they fouled Jackson so it goes they should get the ball back. HOW THE FUCK JACKSON GET FOULED AND BARNES HITS THE BALL OUT OF BOUNDS FUCKING DUMMY?!?! BARNES DID ONE OR THE OTHER FUCKING DUMB MFERS.

And dont get me started on the BS 3 pt foul.

FUCK OKC AND THE REFS

Jackson did get fouled, pretty clearly was hit on the left arm before Barnes got to the ball. :ukiddingme:

Quite possibly one of the worst calls ever made in an NBA playoff game, especially when you consider the refs took several minutes to watch it on replay :facepalm:

I agree, not calling that a foul when he clearly causes the ball to be dislodged by hitting Jackon's hand is an awful call.

He never even touched him :shifty:

Did you even look at the gif? His hand is clearly affected by Barnes hitting it.

 

[red33]

fine then call the foul but why try to make up for the missed foul call and give the ball back to OKC after replay shows its out on jackson.

The moral of the story is that the refs were terrible both ways in this game. That Griffin "block" on Westbrook a few minutes before was a joke.

The whole last minute of the game was unbelievably bad, from a players and reffing standpoint. You'll be hard pressed to find more bad plays down the stretch of a game than this, ever. Paul's turnover, Paul's bad foul, Paul's turnover again, 2 awful shots by Westbrook, 1 resulting in game winning FTs. 2 layups missed by Westbrook that probably could've been called fouls. Jackson NOT PASSING THE BALL on a 3 on 1 on that fast break. Westbrook missing a wide open Durant with 6 seconds left, and taking that god awful shot instead. Topped off with multiple missed calls by the refs. Quite possibly the worst collection of basketball plays in the crunch you'll EVER see. Chris Paul may not sleep for a week or two if the Clippers end up losing this series. It will be a painfully long off-season for the entire team, but especially Chris.

The Thunder are clearly the better team but it sure seemed like the officials were purposely trying to steal any momentum from the Clippers they could last night down the stretch. The bad calls were not as bad as the ones in game 5 obviously but still :facepalm:
