Wow, the zebras tried their best to help out the Spurs in the waning minutes...Nice win by the Thunder tonight.

How so? The out of bounds play between Sefolosha and Leonard was the right call, IMO.

I think you jinxed em Brian.

I wouldn't say that. They just haven't played like that since. I knew it wouldn't be easy. OKC is a great team. Reggie Miller said it best tonight. These last 3 games we're watching a team grow up and mature right in front of us.

And should OKC win the series, I'm rooting for them in the Finals.

I thought Leonard got away with a reach-in on that play. Prior to that, I thought Ginobili should have called for charging on a drive to the hoop, but the refs called the block on the Thunder player.

Oh well, Thunder prevailed in the end.

Yeah, I could see a reach-in maybe being called, but I was OK with it being letting go, and not for the obvious reason too. Which Ginobli drive are you referencing?

It was pretty late in the 4th quarter where he twisted his body in the air. I thought the Thunder player had established pretty good position as Manu hit him.

One thing I've noticed while watching both series' is that the charge/blcok cal is rarely ever called right. I think I've seen 2 or 3 charges that were called the way the rule interprets.

Yeah, it's kinda like how NHL refs botch interference calls.

The NHL and NBA could learn a lot from each other. If we think diving in the NHL is rough...the NBA absolutely HAS to do something about it.


On another note: that kid at the end high fiving all the Heat players and saying "Good job. Good effort." With complete and utter sincerity made my night.
