FINALS GAME 2

I guess Westbrook is playing with a hurt thumb, if it's even worth mentioning. Wade needs to show up for Miami tonight, and Harden needs to stay on the floor!

I know LeBron gets a lot of slack and I hate to add onto it, but that pre game huddle had me falling asleep. You gotta pump your team up LeBron! Look at KG and Sheed, they get their respective teams fired up before every game!

OKC aka ISO-BALL CITY.

And like I've said time and time again, Perkins is hot garbage.

Touch Miami, foul. Hack multiple limbs, Thunder no call...sounds about right for a Miami game.

Heat looking good KD can't guard Lebron in the post.

Man Bosh n Wade taking it to the hole.

They need to double team LeBron in the post. No one can guard him one-on-one.

is unselfish to a fault, i wish he was the one with westbrook's mentality he'd avg damn near 40 a game lol

That's the highest I've seen LeBron get up in awhile.

On Lebron's dunk by Ibaka. That is one guy no one wants to take it in on. Heat off to a good start, setting the tone early.

westbrook's second foul is a JOKE!!!

FEAR THE BEARD!!!

Should trying to pump fake Ibaka, that guy is so itching to block shots its like the Heats moves are telegraphed.

I take back waht I said about the refs even though I haven't liked a few calls. I was just suprised at how the big men of the Thunder were getting hacked in the first couple of minutes.

But lets talk Ibaka/ Harden. The people who think that they need to get rid of one of them must be having a melt down watching this game. They are both changing the game to this point. Ibaka with nasty blocks, and Harden owning the ball on offense. If the Thunder can only keep one, either way they are getting a great player.

can someone explain me the rule affecting durant's block?

How many dunks has Sefolosha missed in these first two games? At least three that I can think of.

It was goaltending because he hit the ball after it hit the backboard above the rim. The controversy was whether or not Ibaka blocked it first. The replay showed that the refs call was right: Ibaka touched the ball before Bosh released it, so it wasn't really a block.

"It was goaltending because he hit the ball after it hit the backboard above the rim."

"Ibaka touched the ball before Bosh released it,"

well..i'm a little confused...

Every time the Thunder get something going, the whistle blows against them on a bad call/foul. They need to get momentum for more then a couple plays. The Heat, again, should really be scared. They are playing great, and Durant and Westbrook might as well be in streets. Should be an interesting second half

Turiaf and Bosh: "Aye, let me get some dap!"

If OKC knows whats good for them, they will do EVERYTHING they can to keep both, even if it means getting rid of nearly everyone else to take on rookie contracts and veteran minimums.

SMH @ Scott Brooks. Don't understand his mancrush for Perkins.

bosh has the hands of kwame brown.

Goaltending is if a player hits the ball on its way down, as long as it is above the rim. If it hit the backboard, then it is assumed to be on the way down. That is why it was a goaltend on Durant, as he hit the ball above the rim on the way down.

he brings nothing on offense and on defense he is not rebounding well

i cant believe KD was able to dunk that.

they calling alot of offensive fouls in this game

Battier just got dunked on. Its the 4th quarter and an shaky 8 point lead for the heat. At this point Spoelstra should be putting Lebron on Durant win or lose.

agreed. Durant looks pissed

Durant is pissed about these turrible calls.

Miami needs to start getting the ball to LeBron in the post again. That is the way to close it out.

This game is nuts Battier banks in a 3 then Durant comes down and answers it...20 pts in the 2nd half....Durant looks like he wants to be known as the best player in the world right now!

I love how mad everyone gets at Chalmers

Scores so easily, if Lebron is a physical specimen Durant is a shooting one. Whats worse is Miami doesn't put a body on him for long. They just keep watching Westbrook, which you can't blame them. But there's got to be some trade off.

when westbrook put that back in i legit said to myself, wtf just happened!!

He almost threw another one down on a putback..he is a freak.

What a game! This series is gooooooooood!

Is my TV the only one that got frozen, I'm have to watch the game on ESPN3.

wow

Oh my!

Lebron hit his FTs!?!?

that was a foul

Lebron knocks down two clutch free throws...can't say I was expecting that.

Those refs are jeopardazing such a beautiful game!

Okay... How do the refs miss two consecutive fouls against LeBron to put the Thunder on the line to tie this game?

Nice to see they still don't call fouls on the Heat during the most critical times...

Thanks refs, for destroying what could have been one of the greatest comebacks off at time. Thank you for reminding me that no matter how good a team plays, the refs will always be there to bail out LeBron and the Heat.

What was the ref watching that was a foul on bron.

LeBron went 12-12 this game on FT's and made clutch baskets, so give that man his credit. He played great start to finish.

But the refs completely blew it those last two plays. Just blew it... Failure. Failure failure failure. You have to call those fouls. Period.

The refs along with Durant are a big reason why they even caught up to the Heat. You guys find any way not to give the Heat credit. They closed the deal. Yes that was a foul by Lebron. But you can neg me when I say this it was still smart do or die by James.

Hell I remember back when the Bulls played the Celtics and Rondo whacked Brad Miller in the face. Doc Rivers I believe called it a "Smart foul." This is the NBA finals, go hard or go home and stop whining.

Yeah IndianaBasketball just wrote exactly what I was going to say, Lebron did well to close out the game, but he fouled Durant, no question and that's straight BS.

Is anyone else as impressed by how well Durant played with 5 fouls for the entire 4th? He managed to block James' shot, and also get that big steal on Wade. The dude has balls, you've gotta give him that.

Durant is PISSED right now, there wasn't much more he could do in the second half with that foul trouble.
