Thunder Vs. Jazz......or some shyt: #4 Thunder- #5 Jazz Playoff Thread

[YOLO_JONES]

Ushers could’ve done a better job protecting the players. They knew with the altercation at the half it was a hostile environment. They should’ve done a better job escorting the players into the lockeroom. And that fan crossed the line by having the phone right in Russ face like that. Its that Cac entitlement.

OKC shoulda hit one of them 3s but refs gotta call that shyt.

If you get the "dpoy" into the air, you deserve the call.

We don't know what that means

Neither am I, and by my principle I don't believe it's a foul. However, that's not how the refs have been officiating that tactic for years now. That has been acknowledged and ruled as a foul for a while now. For them to just swallow their whistles on a precedent that they've set as a CLEAR foul, is inexcusable. It's clearly not a mistake, they would've seen Gobert jump and make contact with PG.

As I said earlier, if they're not going to call that as a foul, it better continue on in the next series, and all the other series' (which I know isn't going to happen).

The thing is they've always called it like that. If you pump faked and got your man in the air and got contact you were getting to the line. Only difference now is everybody is doing this on 3 point attempts. Feels cheap because now you're getting 3 free throws which makes it more attractive to attempt.

She legit did

It’s starting to be lost how great Donovan Mitchell is already as a rookie. Jazz better hold on to that because they are looking at a future Dwyane Wade in the making

he's got healthy wheels

a deep offensive movest

& range from three

might be a upgrade on flash

Why are people so sure PG is leaving? This game clearly displays he’s not a number 1 option nor is he comfortable even attempting to be. Why go to LA and waste time missing the playoffs? Run it back in OKC, wait till Melo off the books so you have more cap flexibility to get bench help/Klay

PG had his worse year playing twitch that clown

This dude Gobert played 39 minutes against a guy who is known to be a physical player (who also had his best game of the entire series) & they really called 1 foul on him


Russy shot way too many 3s even though for a stretch there it was the only thing keeping it close. PG just didn't show up at all tonight.

You wanted Gobert to have 5 fouls in the 3rd like Game 5?

Lying is in Cacs DNA

No one touch Russ. Dude is a maniac

I don't like how Russ is being treated. He did rile up Utah by the "shut that **** down" comment and some of the games in this series got pretty testy between the players. I'm not making excuses for Utah fans, but they kind of rallied around the narrative that Russ was an entitled star bullying Rubio and that he has low ball iq. With Hayward leaving, Jazz fans have been testy and walking with a chip on their shoulder. Russ does not deserve to be treated this way.

I never thought the Jazz would win this series. Earlier in this thread or another thread on here, I said I thought it would be OKC in 4 or 5. Then the Jazz won a few and I started to believe they could win the series. But I don't like how Westbrook is being treated. I really want him to go all the way. I love how he stuck with OKC. I want to see good things happen for super star players that ride things out with small market teams. It's boring when only the hottest market teams win championships.

Crazy finish, congrats to Utah Jazz

People called him out on it and were confused DURING THE GAME while it was happening
I never denied that it never happened to him. We just know the level of play we're accustomed to seeing from him
paul george dropping 40+ in the first game is more surprising than him shrinking and scoring 5 points in an elimination game. TO ME.
He aint a true superstar

Nah you said "if wade" implying that he never did that when he did the exact same thing

 

[At30wecashout]

on second look the gobert pg no call might be the right call...they hips barely touched (pause)

This is all well and good except for the rest of the time when they do call that shyt. If that was harden, he would have gotten the 3 freebies and an apology that they could not give him 4.

That was one in probably 3 damning calls in those last 2 minutes, and PG even when he isn't hitting shots tends to drop freethrows without an issue. They got fukked, and you can guarantee you will see that shyt be called in some other games as crucial points without issue.

Snyder and the bench didn't react like that for no reason.
