    Every time Dallas gets within 2 or 3. Oklahoma City gets free throws on the very next possession. Hard to win when the refs are trying to cover the spread.

    The refs were atrocious game 3, figured they would make sure that Dallas didn't win game 4 after that. Dallas is the better team but the thunder are probably going to take them to 7.

    Huge collapse by OKC.

    Durant with dumbass decision making, and Westbrick bricking as usual.

    And Dirk in GOAT MODE.

    I was still watching. Dirk is seriously in GOAT mode. He can't miss right now.

    6.5 seconds left. Tie game. And he chucks a heavily contested 35 footer with 3 seconds on the clock. WTF was that decision making?

    And he keeps on chucking.

    I give credit to Collison for playing as good of defense as he has on Dirk but how do they not put Durant on him some of the time? Durant's got the body, quickness, and length to give Dirk some trouble. I know hes not a great defender and you don't want him expending tons of energy or fouling a lot but why not try it in stretches? Carlisle wouldn't iso Marion on Ibaka or Collison.

    These Thunder have a lot to learn. I predicted before this series started, that OKC's mistake prone game would be exploited every time down by Dallas.

    Looks like I was wrong about OKC taking Mavs to 7.

    Dirk is a man on a mission. Dude seems so determined to get redemption for all his past playoff failures.
