    Refs were off on calls on both sides in gm 2 but okc should stop letting their opponent have big leads beause then when they are down at the end they have to gamble if they get the call or not

    I think that is what makes OKC great. Older teams get worn out by them that is why they have so many comebacks. Maybe Miami needs to focus on keeping a substantial lead aha.

    At first, I thought they changed it too but they didn't.
    Although I do wish it was 2-2-1-1-1

    I agree that it could have been a foul (And wouldn't have been surprised if it was called) but I thought it was a good no call, but I guess my opinion is bias.

    Also, as stated early on this thread KD should have already been fouled out as the refs missed a charge foul, Shane Battier was clearly set and outside the restricted zone.
    Obviously the officiating is not perfect, but neither team should use it as an excuse.

    So letting teams gain 15 point leads and then trying to make comebacks in the 4th makes them great?

    He probably meant whenever they are down, not necessarily all the time, they tend to make great comebacks. Correct me if I'm wrong.

    Same thing I thought lol.

    If OKC wants any chance of winning they have to stop the momentum in the first quarter, now that Heats have 3 straight home games they will probably win 2 outta 3 of them.

    Just realized Heat were the first team to beat OKC at home in the playoffs, these next 3 games will be crucial for both teams, Heats need to win 2 outta the 3 at home.

    Nice sig lmao. Sometimes I don't get why they don't just give Durant the ball and let him go to work. He's often out of a lot of the plays at the end of games.

    *sigh* If Durant could stay out of foul trouble maybe things would've gone differently this game. They got excruciatingly close to winning the past two games...After Sefolosha schooled Wade and Westbrook hit his signature jumper to bring it within 1 they ran out of steam...

    Sefolosha might have "schooled" Wade, and Westbrook did hit a jumper... But they lost.

    And that's all that matters.

    I blame it on Harden. I mean how can professionals make those kind of mistakes? He was basically raping Lebron and ended up fouling him when they would have had a chance if he let him shoot and miss. One of the problems with young teams I guess..

    I give a lot of credit to lebrons defense on kd, he is bodying him up and being physical. That is a huge problem for kd. All of those points in the paint by the heat can't be stopped without the thunder d getting in foul trouble. Okc turned the ball over so many times too, I don't remember how many were forced or unforced though. I also think westbrook needs to shoot more than he did last night they have won all season with him doing it so keep on, don't change a major part of your game in the finals.

    I had okc in 6 but if they lose this game I don't see them winning the series, the heat match up better against okc and it is the finals, I don't see them winning 4 straight again.

    He "schooled" wade then turned the ball over to lose the game and im pretty the mavs lost alot of their games by a couple points a loss is a loss. its harden's fault for turning the ball over last minute? Blame the team not just harden

    I'm hoping OKC wins tomorrow, they just lost it in the 4th quarter last game.

    OKC needs to step it up in the first half, they always start off losing. Looking forward to Game 4.

    Can't wait for Game 4. James Harden needs to man up and start putting some points on the board. Thunder can't afford to throw away turnovers because in the end, these games are decided by these stupid mistakes.

    Thabo is known for his defense, and he did a magnificent job in crunch time against DWade.

    I have my money on OKC tonight if Durant can stay out of foul trouble.

    I dont think it's hardens fault. Durant is in foul trouble even if they are bad calls he can't be in that situation. Harden scores when he gets the ball consistently. Jus good defense by the heat to be honest. Oh and ibaka just said some ignorant shit about lebrons defense...
