KD is 6'10 but thinks he's 6'3 and Nowistzki is 7 and thinks he's 6'6 one should be a center and the other one should be a power forward, if they wasn't so soft and weak.

Mavs still got a shot
Lakers arent looking as strong as they have in the past
that nigga was guarding durant all game and had 2 fouls????????
If the refs had called this game the way they were suppose to Ron Artest would've fouled out in the 3rd quarter. And I agree the Lakers aren't strong. Its just the Mavs don't have a Artest or a Kobe. And when I say Artest I mean a player who can guard the opposing teams best player and only end the game with 2 fouls.
I can already see Artest guarding Dirk now. I might not even watch that series if it happens. I got low tolerance for this refs bullshit when I don't have anything invested in the game. I might break my TV in that series. If the refs want to let the players play that's fine. I prefer that to be honest. But the calling is too inconsistent and that's a problem. If you gonna let them play in the 4th then let everyone play. If you gonna call fouls then call them both way.
He does it properly.
When Lebron did it his man jumped straight up, and Lebron jumped INTO him. Kobe did it because Green jumped TOWARD him, and all Kobe had to do was go up.
That move became so blatant recently though, it was the cheapest foul ever. Players would jump pretty far to jump into a defender. The nba put a stop to that.
Did I miss something, or did Durant post up and drive the ball a lot
Is that the only way to get fouled?
Stop being biased
I've seen them, I'm wondering have you fucking seen them
People always complained about the Bulls gettin calls.
Did you forget the push off against Russell dumb ass
or the fuckin hack aka steal on Karl Malone?
Just go play NBA Live muthafucka
boy, you dumb as fuck!
I'm talkin about how in playoff games (in tha 90's) it would be an all out war down tha stretch and tha refs used to let 'em play and you're talkin about 2 no calls... I'ma be quiet and let you think you said something really intelligent
you win...
The problem with OKC (one of them) is Jeff Green but not because of this game. The Thunder aren't going to be contenders until they move Green because this is about as far as the team will go with him and Durant at the forward positions.
CHECK THE PHANTOM FOUL ON SCOTTIE PIPPEN AGAINST HUBERT DAVIS THAT MADE THE BULLS LOSE THE SERIES.c/s
back in tha 90's, refs would NEVER decide a game (especially in tha playoffs).. it was an all out war in tha last 2 minutes of close games, no matter who was playin
FUCK OUTTA HERE...
KD is 21 years old. He's suppose to be a junior in College right now.
Not to mention he's the leading scorer in the whole league. If you can lead the league in scoring I wouldn't care how he did it. Durant put up 30+ tonight. Scoring wasn't the problem.
He can't be a center man, dude is 230. Some guys just don't put weight on, and in fact some guys CAN'T put weight on because their bodies cannot handle it - and they'll turn injury prone.
KD is just fine. They're still a young inexperienced team.
Shit, the man who SHOULD be beasting inside is Lebron, and he doesn't even do that.
He shouldn't be a PF just because of his height, Magic was 6-9 but he was a point guard. Remember? KD could play spot minutes at the 4 if the other team goes small, but he's right where he should be.
Dirk plays the 4, and he SHOULD be posting up more.
really?
this board has more hate for the west coast than the south??
when did this hapen?
Dirk has perfected his midrange game and posts up more now
boy, you dumb as fuck!

Yeah, two no calls that were obvious as fuck that both favored the Bulls, and that's just off the top of my head that caused them to win games.
The first time you say something intelligent, will be the first.
Maybe if you said the 80's you would have had a point, but you using the 90's as an example just shows how much of a non-basketball watchin dumb ass you were
Way back in the 90's, faggot just go to bed
Ive seen it when Kobe jumped into a defender who jumped strait up with his hands up in the air and they called it for a three point foul at the end of a close game. You could actually see Kobe eyes light up once dude took to the air. Plus over the years, no one has benefited from that bullshit call more than Kobe. Like I said, I never see him not get that call.
I disagree. Green is playing bad this series but he's a rookie at this shit. First go around in the post season. He's what? A 2 or 3 year pro as well? He's been in the league as long as Durant. He's gonna get better. The problem right now is that the Thunder don't have any bigs. They are similiar to how the Mavs were when they started going into the playoffs. Never had a post threat. Ibaka got game. Has a decent J and can block shots. But they're going to need a offensive threat that can help them become a more balanced offense.
boy, you dumb as fuck!

I was there in the 90's, and Jordan was getting preferential treatment then too.
That pushoff on Byron Russell was an absolute no-brainer; However, they wouldn't DARE take away that shot from MJ!
Why didn't the refs give the Lakers the ring against Detroit when they had Malone and Payton? They threw some chicken bones in a bowl and determined it wasn't LA's year to be helped to a ring?

yo proven dumb ass done yet? get off my dick already, faggot.. I have nothin else to say to your bitch ass.. "WAY back in tha 90's" who said that? shut tha fuck up.. or keep talkin.. I don't give a fuck
too many damn bitches
It's not about being biased. If you aren't aggressive you aren't going to get calls.
Why do you think Vince free throws are so low, because he barely penetrates anymore.
The difference is James can post up and he does it, look what he did to Artest. Not only that he has the ability to take you off the dribble, another thing that Dirk and KD have problems with doing. In my book, if you want to be that dude, you have to either be able to post up or have the ability to drive in the paint. The great ones can do both (Jordan, Kobe, and James.) Durant isn't on that level, a good jump shooter with a quick release, but thats about it.
i disagree with the durant comment. durant is not built to be a power forward body wise. his frame is wire and skinny. he's been skinny all his life and he'll be skinny until he dies
that means no fat but no muscle too.
dirk is big enough his body can handle more weight but he wont put it on yea, but durant couldnt get fat if he tried
Thunder Series Thread
wow.
just got caught up on the last 3 pages of this thread.
i've never seen so much bitching about foul calls. shitty officiating, but equally shitty for the most part, no?
and for costanza (and even nobody) congratulations, that's 1 more (a total of 5) in 10 weeks of basketball. celebrate.
can you honestly say the fakers played better tonight than they did in G1? the difference was clearly the chucking. G1 didn't come down to a final shot, did it?
all those poor shots put the fakers in bad positions on the floor for transition D, and the thunder ended up scoring more or less than G1?
but i know you guys don't watch that sort of "irrelevant" stuff.
for the others in this thread, apply the "chain is only as strong as the weakest link" theory and you have nenad krstic v. pau gasol/andrew bynum. who wins?
sorry supersonic fans.

look at my location
i dont hate the left coast
i hate refs making bullshit calls plain and simple
come on man
how can you sit there and type that
durant averaged 11 ft's a game
and made over 100 more ft's than lebron james
get outta here
Vince free throws are so low because he doesn't play for the Lakers.
I think the Dirk comparison is sort of bad, for one reason.
Teams put smaller players on Dirk a lot of times, because of how good Dirk is of getting his jumper off and the bigger players have a harder time staying with him. They wouldn't do it if he posted up or had a back basket game he used more than once a game.
So Dirk will have fuckin 6'7 and 6'6 players on him like a Bruce Bowen trying to get in his chest and this dude instead of taking him down low, he'll fuckin STILL be trying to do the same three shit. In crunch time has anyone ever seen Dirk post up or take someone to the basket? I admit he's made some clutch shots, but very rarely are they in the paint. Compare that to any other PF not named KG.
Last game I was like this dude has fuckin Roger Mason on him, and he's shooting fadeaways acting like he's been shot. Man Kobe or DWade's eyes would light up if they saw Roger Mason on them, and this dude is fuckin 7 foot tall
KD is 6'10 and might have 2-4 inches on other SF's, but he doesn't have the strength.
Durant is gettin knocked on this board for not postin up much.. he is 6'10 but Ron Artest out muscles Durant.. Durant can't back Artest down.. Durant still gets his touches in tha high post.. and he does use his height to his advantage by shooting over Artest.. he does drive pretty often too but when you're gettin hacked and tha whistle ain't blowin.. obviously, you're going to stop driving.. especially when your jumpshot is fallin, like his was tonight.. tha shots that Durant's been takin these past two games are tha shots that he wants and tha same shots he's been takin all season
come on man
how can you sit there and type that

From what I've seen from Durant, I have to agree with Garnett, he don't drive off the dribble enough to be going to the line as much as he goes. Most of his fouls he gets must be from pitty pat jump shot fouls.
And that shit is mad weak.

i don't have as much problem with jeff green as i do the euros inconsistent thabo sefolosha and nenad krstic.

You say you disagree then make the point I alluded to. Green is a SF being forced to play out of position which is why he's going to have to be moved for the team to improve in the front court.
OKC will be a player in this summer's free agent frenzy so it'll be interesting to see if they are able to land a PF to help take them to another level.

Artest being physical is the reason why he is playing like that
He does drive to the hole but Artest has him by 50 pounds and its getting in his head
He has to stay aggressive
