2016 NBA Playoffs Thread: Post-Joey Crawford Edition

[elcheato]

The Heat have, by far, the best player in the series, which counts for something 

 

[BwareDWare94]

Yeah, Toronto really should be embarrassed after last night.

I just can't fathom how Dwane Casey keeps his job after these playoffs.

Watch what the best teams do. They move the ball. All damn game

His name, of course, is Wade Jones!

And his name is Justise Winslow

I still cant believe Kawhi has developed so much offensively, how did it happen?

 

[bosoxlover12]

a top 5 coach in nba history helped him?

 

[cruzg24]

Fuck, how do they set up that final shot for Parker?

Shouldve been for Kawhi....

 

[bosoxlover12]

can't believe they called a foul on aldridge, but not on kawhi right before
 
 
refs giving okc the game

 

[cruzg24]

That was a foul on Kawhi, unfuckingbelievable

This series has been a bad look for NBA officiating

very, and it looks worse when the nba comes out and admits faults.

What happened in this one?

 

[elcheato]

It's honestly impressive that the Warriors consistently face the path of least resistance every round. Everyone always complains about the Cavs and the East, but this is the second straight year where the Warriors will face a whole lot of nothing

Are you saying the Thunder/Spurs wont make it difficult?

 

[BwareDWare94]

So who ever thought this Spurs team could lose to anybody but the Warriors in less than 7 games? Something tells me OKC comes out red hot in game 6 and puts it away.

 

[bosoxlover12]

 
What happened in this one?

OKC is up one and is inbounding off a timeout. They pass it into Westbrook, and Kawhi basically hugs him. 
 
No call.
 
 
Westbrook proceeds to the basket, may have had a little contact from LMA but far less than Kawhi's foul, and they call the And-1 to clinch the game.
 
 
 
I have no problem with not calling a foul on Kawhi, or calling that a foul on Lamarcus. But not both. Either swallow the whistle, or call the foul. It should have been a 3pt game for the Spurs, not a 4. 

 

[snipezo]

 
Clearly the better team? I mean fan bias aside, I'd take Dragic and Wade over the two Brick Bros right now. If any teams are pretty evenly matched it's these two.

Who wouldn't?

Yeah dude the Thunder are complete bums. Don't know how they won 55 games

 

[Mexi]

Very impressed by OKC!

west is down this year so no one should be surprised
At least they'll have an opponent in the wcf unlike cleveland

Last year everyone talked about how they got lucky to face everyone with injuries so idk what youre talking about there
