    You are expecting too much from him, His job will get easier if Zach,Gasol and OJ step up.

    Make that 4 Thunder players. Durant, Westbrook, Harden, and Collison. Perfect game for them.

    Memphis got outhustled tonight. They gave up way too many offensive rebounds.

    Nick Collison had a very good series that might get overlooked.

    Yeah, but the refs help every thunder player get loose in that pivotal 3 quarter run when Memphis got it down to 3.

    Harden is NOT micheal jordan, no matter how much he thinks he is.

    props to memphis though. they'll be much better w/ rudy gay back in the mix next year. they desperately needed gay's offensive presence in this series.

    no need to put their heads down. memphis will be back again next year

    Exactly,a few non calls weren't game changers by any means. The Thunder have outplayed Memphis.

    ApuN, you said that the Thunder wouldn't make it out of the 2nd round, right?

    you didn't see the 3rd quarter. it was a 4pt game. tony allen got whacked twice on the break, and they missed a ton of calls around the basket that made it back to a double digit game.

    a few calls matter in a game 7 my friend. and you expect a team that drove to the rack like crazy like memphis did to get at least 60% of them b/c they were blatant fouls. but they got none

    it changed the complexion of the game.

    Sure does help when your team has a top five player.

    KD "thanking the lord" every time he gets interviewed is annoying

    No whining

    Let's just see what happens next year. We want OKC, again.

    Hope they don't get knocked out before we play them.

    Knowing your feelings about OKC, exactly what I'd expect you to say.

    People can tell what to stop whining but it was clear as the the refs were horrible this game.

    I mean this message board complains about the refs after every single loss even when they aren't bad so I can see why what would be angry about a Game 7 being officiated that way.
