The Call was actually the right call from the rule TNT showed. Doesn't change the fact that the officiating was horrible.
Side note: does Shaq get paid to just sit on the set? He barely ever says anything.

I don't usually say this, but that was a legitimately lucky win. The Thunder caught not one, not two, but three HUGE breaks in the span of about 30 seconds.
The refs call the anticipatory foul on that Westbrook steal 9 times out of 10. Doesn't mean it wasn't legit, but not having a foul called there just on precedent was vey fortunate.
The ball was clearly off Jackson and, because the refs didn't call the foul, they should have ruled it LA ball. No clue how they decided after the review to award OKC the ball, given that you cant review or base a review on a foul call/non-call. Perhaps it was the basketball Gods righting a wrong, but still lucky.
The foul by Paul on Westbrook was about as weak of a foul as you'll see, especially in that situation. What little contact there was came after the ball had left his hand. The fact that Westbrook went full retard and that bailed him out makes it even worse.
Doc Rivers is gonna get fined out the arse for that press conference

If the ball is knocked out of your hand, it's out on the person who knocked out of your hand even if it technically touches your hand last. As long as you don't touch it after it leaves your hand, it's still your ball. Just saw that rule on Inside the NBA.

If true, that's the single worst rule in professional sports.

That #2 fellow is pretty dang good, not talmbout Manziel either.
That move where he turned on the jets at halfcourt and split a double team to throw it down was fricking DIRTY. Kawhilights!

I hope Jackson is still available if the Pels fire their coach next season.

This series is going to be a really good one. It is not going to be determined by Tiimah, Frenchy, or Manny. I think the key is going to be....
Splitter. If he is allowed to just play Defense and not needed to contribute offensively then the Spurs win huge. If the Thunder shut down Timmah and force Splitter to be a cog in the Euro offense with scoring it goes 7.
Green needs to quit while he is ahead, meaning stop taking every damn shot. Let Xzhibit and Frenchy get him into the offense, run back cuts with Splitter and Timmy feeding from High Post and I think the offensive game shows back up.
JJ's in 6 is what I think happens, JJ's in a sweep would be GOLD.

Yup. Crazy as it seems, Splitter and Kawhilights are the linchpins to this series.

No. I was just rooting for them because I wanted a championship to come to the city

I've always wondered, how do most people view the Clippers? Are they the annoying little brother? Before they got good, did only poor or bored laker fans go to their games, or did they have a legit fan base, who didn't cheer for the lakers?
