These Knicks are relentless. They don't get too high or too low. They have supreme confidence in their ability to come back from any deficit. Crazy how a "curse" was holding them back(im just kidding) Aren't I.

Im fine with this officiating when the Spurs are at home, with the expectation that the Knicks will get the same.

But NOT the Spurs getting home calls on the road. I mean the Brunson Flagarant? What? And the **** Wemby is doing?

NBA wants this to go to 7 so bad. Certainly dont want to lose 3 games in a sweep. I hate how rigged this sport can be sometimes.

When you have $100,000 courtside seats, you dont let that go away easily in a sweep.

Agree 100%. This game feels absolutely fixed for the Spurs to win. Too much money to be made by this going 6 or 7 games instead of 4 or 5.

If anybody can watch this and not think it's scripted...they don't even hide it...

Like last game you got this guy who is MVP caliber ...called the alien...just throw the ball into his teammates back. Like ok.

Guess they were supposed to lose that game and were accidentally winning .

I fully expect the Spurs to win 3 games then NY will win game 6 forcing 7 games. Just like the script reads. College isn't far behind.

Thats not just me saying it. Thats coming from a lot of sports talk shows. I dont think a title team ever closed out on a 14 game win streak with probably a 20pt margin of victory.

They are putting up stats snd analytics that no other team has done.
They are hot.

The Wemby bad pass was more of just inexperience to me. Weve seen that happen to lots of young players. So its not so much the players that I think are screwing this.. its just the front office. They want more games, and thats why Knicks got like 5 or 6 brutally bad calls and were at one point -18 on free throws in the 2nd half.. and at home no less.

Been saying this since the Jordan game, Stephon Castle is going to be a multi-time NBA All-Star. That dude is getting better each year from the 3pt line which is basically his biggest flaw. He's strong, he's quick, he's long, he's athletic, he's an intelligent player, and he's only 21. Impressive. Both he and Harper.

I don't think it's scripted, but I do think there may be some ref manipulation going on to stretch the series.
