Western Conference Finals: Dallas Mavericks vs Oklahoma City Thunder

They can start by grabbing some rebounds.

Hopefully not tho. Hate the Sonics.

 

Marion is great in the open court but pretty ineffective in the halfcourt. I haven't seen a forward who misses so many easy layups since Chuck Hayes the early years.

I understand how his length helps on the defensive end, but those layup misses are painful to watch.

 

b-b-b-ack to the line.

 

Barea cannot guard Westbrook.

This is what Westbrook is supposed to do. Instead of jacking up shots he should be driving in. Barea and Kidd have no chance against him.

 

If Kobe or LeBron is getting that kind of treatment, they would have shot 50 FTs per game.

BTW, does any one ever saw Haywood touching the ball at any end?

 

Some lopsided officiating here.

 

Dirk needs to show up

 

Westbrook ain't getting benched tonight.

 

It makes me mad that they don't even show replays of those touch fouls Thunder players get when they drive in. They all seem very, very close to me.

 

how can anybody root for a team like OKC that gets such obvious officiating bias?

28-to12 ft attempts

 

This is the good Westbrook.

But what his critics fail to notice that is that's Westbrook all the time. Drive hard to the basket!!!!!

 

There is no way in hell you could guard wlkins,king,and those other elite scorere in the 80s without a double and never with a 6'4 guard like they're doing durant.

 

Yep, he's brought OKC to within striking distance. Now I expect the Mavs to shut WB off now let's see what happens. KD or Harden will need to finally produce.

 

Don't you think that aggressiveness has anything to do with that?

I don't like it when poeple just look at fts attempts to judge who is getting the calls.

 

You'd think HardOn is Michael Jordan with all these calls.

 

I've been watching this game. Didn't even know the FT count. It is ****ing ridiculous.

 

Yeah lately they have been aggressive, true, but history shows get some ridiculous lopsided officiating. Even with Dirks record breaking free throw night, Durant and Westbrook got nearly the same amount of free throws, and as a team they shot more, and this is AWAY. I don't think their's been a game, home or away, where they haven't had less free throws. It blows my mind. People constantly go nuts with the fouls Wade and Lebron draw, how in the world do Durant and Westbrook get off scot-free?

 

LOL. aggressive of what? using off arm to "create" contact?

 

Dirk's acts like such a baby sometimes, haha.

 

Wow OKC going to the line when they actually deserve to.
