Lol hopefully this will set a precedent on hardens bs antics

 

[Lionel Richie]

Refs overreacting and being shit as usual. Don't call the flops but just let the game go on.

 

[Peter Ian Staker]

Finally the refs remembered this is the play-offs and stopped calling Harden's crap.

 

[NervousXtian]

This game is booty flakes.

 

[friskykillface]

Silver is there too
Refs SHOOK

 

[sir_kevith]

That was well deserved, flopped so hard he fouled Gasol. :lol

Lmao damn that was bad.

 

[Nafai1123]

I love watching Harden throw a fit on the other end of these fouls. Cry more plz.

 

[BlackNMild2k1]

Silver is there too

Commissioner Silver don't want to see an inferior product.

In 7 what? 7 years? Is that when lebron retires?

 

[Phoenix RISING]

This game is booty flakes.

Because Cleveland/Toronto was so much better, right?

The game is tied. Calm down and watch some real basketball.

LMA>Kawhi

Spoiler

in the first half of this game

 

[darkwing-buck]

Kawhi's jumper just looks so damn pleasing. Looks very Jordan-esque.

As we watch Harden flop all over the place...

This has been a pretty poor shooting performance so far.

LMA getting those old school NBA Jam strips on Nene.

 

[Nafai1123]

Are the flashes from photographers somehow not distracting to the players? They're always taking pics right when someone's about to shoot. -Random bball thought

 

[Starphoenix]

Surprisingly low scoring game. San Antonio's defense has been on point. They're just turning the ball over too much.

[PadWarrior]

Seeing the growth of Kawhi has been fun.

 

[thehypocrite]

Harden is shot. He's even in bad physical shape. I think he's probably injured and lost his conditioning because of that.

 

[nogoodnamesleft]

Aldridge. If this is what you gave me every game I would never fuckin complain. Just hustle on d Andy don't bite on fouls and get some nice jumpers.

They are. Apparently Kawhi does strobe light training like Jordan before him so the flashes from the cameras become a non-issue.

 

[CassidyIzABeast]

Looking forward to Justise Winslow growing into a all-star next season.

Not if the Harrison brothers have anything to say about it!

If I was a ref my general rule of thumb would be that if I see Harden's head snap back then I wouldn't call a foul. Sure, I'd miss a few real ones but I'd probably come out well ahead in the long run.

Interesting. That seems...kinda crazy.

They will have to take the crown from the Zeller brothers.

To be fair, they haven't really have shot that many 3s. Its just Mills is bricking all of his shots. Outside of Pau's single make (who would have though a center would become the Spurs' best 3 point shooter?), they've only had 1 from Aldridge, 1 from Kawhi, 2 from Green, 1 from Murray.

Curry does the same training. Gotta get that edge.

9% better than the raptors

And they are currently winning.

Watching them go over highlights of Harden and him snapping his head from any contact is absurd. Has to be really hard to officiate his game.

I typically don't catch many Rocket games but he's tough to watch; between his head spasms, flailing about, effort on defense and constant complaining to refs.

 

[Hyperactivity]

Oh we're doing the "Harden only ever flops, head snaps, etc. etc." shit now?

 

[darkwing-buck]

KAWHI!!!!

 

[friskykillface]

Aldridge is alive?
Amir for Aldridge deal back on

 

[darkwing-buck]

Kawhi shitting on the entire rockets rn!

 

[phanphare]

kawhi is savage

Kawhi filling the role of top 3 NBA player

 

[FZZ]

Are Spurs actually playing good perimeter defense or are Rockets just bricking everything?

Can't watch the game rn

 

[Hyperactivity]

I'm still a little shook from that Harden dunk

I have never seen that

 

[CassidyIzABeast]

Kawhi palmed it like a nerf ball

 

[phanphare]

top 3 and he's not 3

 

[Tommy DJ]

I'm actually OK if the Spurs try the "peak Duncan" thing with Kawhi. Because holy shit that guy is so good this post season.

 

[PadWarrior]

So glad I've got to witness Kawhi growth from the beginning. What a great player.

 

[Zantetsuken]

I hate foul begging to the refs.

 

[Hyperactivity]

talk more shit about Harden

please

 

[Bam Bam Baklava]

If the Warriors got these kinds of calls they would score 160 points a game.

Both teams were actually just shooting it poorly from the 3 at the half. Plenty of open shots.
