@moonrelateee@XaviercMiller Sorry but I watched this series and that’s exactly what happened. Not saying it’s a conspiracy, just stating the obvious that thunder brand basketball is referee centered and not basketball centered.
@blasicangod@NBCSWarriors Do it 7 games in a series? Or at least do it while playing basketball and not floor hunting.
But you don’t see any of that I’d imagine because you don’t have eyes.
@DSwanson84@iam_johnw If you show me the clip of this painful and dangerous of a foul happening to SGA and it not being called a flagrant I’ll get off this app forever and buy a Thunder jersey
I thought I hated Warriors fans
I thought I hated Nuggets fans
I thought I hated Clippers fans
I thought I hated Celtics fans
I was wrong.
Those fans are my best friends compared to the disdain I possess for the entire state of Oklahoma
In game 7 all this Spurs physicality is going to be whistled every time down and Shai is going to walk into free throws every single time he falls
Thunder fans are then going to rewrite this Shai series as some type of good performance
@LegionHoops@FOS I mean sure but I don’t think that’s gonna fix everything. The NBA has rules that it chooses to enforce or not to enforce when it wants to. I.E the flopping technical, tucked jerseys, off ball contact.
League need a look of all the rules they’ve added in context of a live game.
I’ve for a time hated Embiid, Durant, LeBron, Harden, even Jokic. But I’ve always understood why they’re loved and why they are so successful, they play basketball extremely well.
I still can’t understand why even thunder fans are enjoying Shai Gilgeous Alexander basketball
This league is so beyond rigged it’s not even funny
- players/coaches getting caught in scandals
- OKC Knicks finals merch on NBAstore
- Coaches being denied challenges
- referees being one sided
- the advertisement of gambling becoming normalized
- draft lottery (yeah)
When a clear goaltend doesn’t get called (or reviewed)
And on the next possession an out-of-bounds call is incorrect and a coach is PLEADING with the refs for a challenge, and they simply ignore him
Then the refs T-up said coach
The integrity of the game comes into question.
When the WCF is over, some will say ppl overreacted to the way OKC played unethically and was nevertheless rewarded by the refs. Here's a thread for posterity #AdamSilverBasketball
