    I believe so.

    It is kind of obvious that he and Salvatore are totally in on favoring certain teams.

    You know, I can't remember. It wouldn't surprise me.

    250K- wow. He was wrong though. That rule 8 section 2 or whatever it is clearly supported the refs ruling. If the ball goes out of bounds because you slap the hand of the guy with the ball, you don't get possession. Barnes slapped Jackson's hand and that's why it went out of bounds. OKC should get possession in that scenario. Clippers had lots of chances to win the game and blew it. Doc should've kept his mouth shut.

    My bad; it was Bennet Salvatore in Game 1 who high-fived McHale.

    I disagree. I don't think the rule supports it, but I've posted that in length in other threads.

    If he's fined over 50K I will literally stop watching the playoffs.

    Refs following the script v. Brooklyn. Sucks not being the chosen ones.

    BKN followed the Clips model and choked down the stretch. How many shots did they miss in the last three minutes?

    Give the Heat credit for smothering defense on the last possession.

    Good D by Miami. Nets couldn't get a shot up. And then there were 7 teams...

    Hopefully the narrative is the San Antonio isn't as strong as Miami... That way the refs will give us game 5.

    2014 Thunder playoff summary:

    1st round: Twice they had a 4 point play go in their favor and influence the ending of the game.
    2nd round: Back to back games with questionable calls in the Thunder's favor.

    As a Blazer fan, all I can hope is Dame and LMA get the KD and Westbrook NBA treatment next year.

    I'm tired of the Thunder getting all the calls ,ever since that bad goal tending call a few years back all I know is the NBA lets the Thunder do whatever they want. KD sits at the free throw line all game long after missed field goal attempts (even when he had no chance to make the shot).

    The Jordan era was good for people from Chicago and frontrunners. Please don't make OKC the next team to be the golden child of the NBA.
