I'm tired of people bitching about the officiating. It was fine tonight. There were some spotty moments in this series but they went both ways. Refs do a pretty good job of balancing out bad or tough calls. Other nights I might agree with the hate, but not tonight.
If you can't jam with the best, then you have to slam with the rest.

Stop blaming the refs seriously... Xyric, please start warning people every time they come in here to complain about refs, it's getting annoying.

Quit blaming it on the referee's. Heat only scored three more points on nine more free throws which obviously was boosted up due to the need for late game fouls.

Even though I'm a Heat fan and it's easy for the supporter of the winning team to be magnanimous about this or whatever, I really do hope your day gets better ;; I know that feel when nothing goes right ._.

I blame Brooks, Westbrook is going nuts with 7 to go and he just slowed the game down for 3 minutes by trying to set plays for durant and harden. Let Westbrook keep driving and see if the heat could stop him.

that game was heart pumping. Westbrook seriously annoyed me the entire game when he would instantly respond but his team didnt really follow by example.

It's the momentum swings that these horrible calls changed. When the refs mess up a lot it not only helps the heat by giving them free throws, but it takes away time and messes up momentum

Anyone knows what the plan was for OKC? Jack up some shots see if they fall through? Give the ball to Westbrook?

The reffing was fine. People need to either point to specific situations of bad reffing or just quit whinging...

Over/under on hyperbolic EPSN stories in the next couple of days about LBJ, his toughness and injury. We'll start at 10.

Quick thoughts:

1. Harden is losing this series for the Thunder. I don't think any elaboration is necessary.
2. That one play where Fisher chose not to pass the ball to Westbrook on the break and instead chose to drive right into the teeth of the MIA defense and get blocked was a huge mistake. It resulted in a 4 point turnaround and broke Westbrook's rhythm.
3. In line with the last one, who told Westbrook to stop recklessly attacking the basket at the end? I know Durant is the marquee player, but why insist on trying to get him the ball at the expense of going away from what had become a guaranteed basket every time down the court?
4. I know that we generally frown on complaining about refereeing, and definitely against using it as an excuse for a loss, but I can't help but feel that OKC got shafted by the refs this game. There were so many phantom fouls, ticky tack fouls, and no-calls that went against the Thunder all game, more than a few on key plays. The reffing wasn't the reason why the Thunder lost, but you can't ignore that the reffing was pretty one-sidedly bad this game.

Both of those things are their game plan.

We know this from all of the testing they did in the locker room right? We don't know that it's only cramps. It sure looks that way and I hope so, but if he pulled something and has to sit for the rest of the series...

And yeah, bet Scott Brooks is feeling real dumb for turning down that contract extension right about now.

edit: Spoelstra just said it was just cramps. So maybe you're right!

Was gonna type something out, but everything I more or less want to say is in the post. I'm livid right now.

Point 3 is the main reason. Westbrook could of had 60 or more he could'nt be stopped this game.

4. First half was super aggressive barely a whistle. Second half not sure guess the refs where bored.
