tbh, the league back in that day was not as soft as today's. They didn't give lots of foul at end of the game. Today's refs are soft fast, so do players.
i feel like if that foul was called, durant sinks 2 free throws. probably goes into overtime and if the thunder can hold it together and win they are up 2-0 and take both home games. could have brought that momentum into game 3 and we're potentially looking at a 2 GAME swing. all because of 1 no call late in the game, but i guess you can get away with bs when you're lebum
As a Heat fan, I’m obviously glad we won the championship but I wish the series would’ve been more competitive. I expected this to be 7 games cause the Thunder were favorites to win.
@Dats a paddlin exactly. People don't realize the roster turnover of the heat in the summer of 2010. The whole team was brand new. Thats why they started 9-8. They didn't know how to play with each other, and Lebron just melted down. Real talk tho Wade played way worse in 2014 than LeBron did in 2011. But Lebron is Lebron and he was 26 opposed to Wade at 31.
@Dats a paddlin the mavs won so they earned it but you cant deny the fact that lebron disappeared in the 4qt. If he showed up in the 4th the story ends differently. I'll never forget bron standing under the rim looking lost
@Zon It's not about opinions whether it was soft or hard, it's about the fact, that according to both the rules and the standard set by the calls made in the NBA games that's an obvious foul and it's not close to being debatable.
@@lVloney that's not a that big of a stretch. If harden had shown any resemblance of himself they probably would've been champions and would've definitely spent that 4 million

Crazy to think that LeBron James had to go against Curry, Klay and KD.. Kd, Harden, and Westbrook.. Parker, Duncan, Kawhi, and Ginobli.. It's no wonder he's 3-6 in the Finals and was the underdog in most of the finals series.
@optemestic pats fan he joined a team of curry, klay, draymond they already that their own big 3 men, then durant joined them, that would be like lebron joining the celtics in 2008, they would win back 2 back of course, and the narrative will die, because he joined a championship team that was built of their own big 3 guys already, westbrook and harden could have done the same nonsense like kd and won too, curry is the reason kd has 2 rings
As a Celtics fan...I knew Miami was winning it all after Game 6 of the ECF... LeBron was like watching Goku go Super Saiyan for the first time...he simply could not be stopped, you have to respect it
As a Durant and Thunder fan at the time, this was when I knew Westbrook needed to go. His pace just blew too many games, KD was the best player but they could not finish games together. This was such a fun series and time for me in the NBA. My heart broke when they lost, and I truly cannot wait for KD to win in Brooklyn.
They must gettin rid of wb instead of harden. Let harden do the point for them. And add more athletic sniper like vince carter. Give credit to lebron he's so like mj specially on playoffs.
It wasn’t even westbrooks fault that they lost this series, harden choked. 12 ppg on 37% shooting. If harden averaged atleast 20 things could have been very different. KD isn’t winning anything in brooklyn
It followed a very cookie-cutter formula. Heat had experience and suffered the previous year, Thunder were a young & upcoming team who was not yet ready to win the big one. 4-1 outcome.
How on earth did OKC have Durant, Harden, Westbrook, Sefalosha, & Ibaka... and NOT keep this team together? The only ones that have chips are Durant (injured now) and Ibaka.
Don’t act like that Thunder team was trash, because they weren’t, they were hella good, Westbrook, Harden, Durant, Ibaka, Perkins, those some bad dudes
Correction KD and Westbrook were 23, while Harden was 22 haha. So uhm... yep they're young at that time, but still KD made a weak move when he joined the warriors so his two championships aren't valid. NOW THAT'S A FACT.
Okc was just a young talent back then,if they were assembled even now they would have been over powered Kevin Durant,James harden,Russell Westbrook ,serge Ibaka,and more
refs say the exact opposite. They say they have to do what they did with Shaq cause Lebron he's always fouled in the paint but the can't call it every time so please ..
Growing up my dad like pacers. And my other familey like the jazz. But growing up playing nba live. I'd always play with Gary Payton and later Ray Allen. So in this time frame this is when I became a thunder fan. Cause everyone was loving lebron
Man we got into the playoffs Back -Back We we're to stacked But That KD Trade Ruined The Thunder But we still got into the playoffs back-to-back Then we traded ibaka. Then 2019 The Day Came We Had To Westbrook Traded To The Rockets With Harden But We Got Back Chris Paul Who Helped Us Got Us Into The Playoffs Again.Which Is Impressive. Can't forget Us Getting Carmelo And PG-13 But trading them both but we got Shai from the Pg13 trade And no one? From Carmelo trade.Then 2020 We Traded Steven Adams To The Pelicans For No One.
When they show Godfather Pat Riley standing up...STILL TO DIS DAY (Wilder voice 😂) I believe Pat stood up with his arms folded so the MOB could get a picture of all those OKC fans that are rubbing it in around him 😂😂😂😂😂💯
Looking back KD, Westbrook and Harden were like 23 here. That's cool. Harden choked. But if you look at his role, he's a freaking 6th man. Imagine having Durant and Westbrook starting along with Ibaka , and still have Harden on the bench. Idk, I don't know how the Harden trade went down, maybe the front office didn't give it time, but that trio would've been fun to watch.
@@Jesseg-rj6xf cmon look at his team in 2007 and 2014 his teammates underperformed 2011 was his fault 2017-2018 injuries and kd. lastly 2015 kyrie was injured and its a team sport and no other player in 2007,2017,2018 maybe 2015 wouldve won if they were in his predicament like lets be real he took them to 6 without kyrie in 2015
Not saying this series was rigged, but that no call at the end of game 2 was literally the series. Game 3 and Game 4 was the same way. The Heat got away with so many over the backs and the refs gave Dwade and Lebron every call in those two games. I think if they called that foul in game 2,Durant hits those free thows, Thunder win, it's a 7 game series for real
One of the biggest NBA mistakes for the Thunder to move of Harden. Imagine them keepkng Harden and then trading Westbrook for a great big man and a role player ?
if you watched this live you remember how horrific and one sided the refs were for miami the entire series. miami was notorious for how they flopped during this time, they’d most likely win anyway but it wouldn’t have been in 5
Yeah, I hate to admit it,and I'm a Miami fan but the refs were kinda biased here. And I ain't saying they made Miami won the series but I don't know, most calls went Miami's way.
i'm wifin' justina valentine games 2-4 were winnable games for okc but their best player kd was always in foul trouble for a lot of touch fouls. the series should’ve went 7 but i do think miami probably would’ve won anyway though
@@billyfresh23 The worst phantom call i have ever seen live was during this series. KD cleanly blocks Dwade going for a dunk, gets called for a foul. After review, they see there was so no contact from KD, so they change the foul to westbrook even though he was like 5 feet away from the play.
@@billyfresh23 The fact that this OKC team was so young made it worse. The officiating clearly got under their skin and they weren't able to play through the bad calls. They had no energy and pretty much gave up during game 5.
The games were close but the series wasn’t

@@jeffreyxu6430 the tape doesn't lie. Look it up
@@oakinw8361 so, bad calls always happen. Like 2018 WCF game 7
oakinW excuses. Just keep on crying
Not saying this series was rigged, but that no call at the end of game 2 was literally the series. Game 3 and Game 4 was the same way. The Heat got away with so many over the backs and the refs gave Dwade and Lebron every call in those two games. I think if they called that foul in game 2,Durant hits those free thows, Thunder win, it's a 7 game series for real
Classic case of NBA vets like Lebron and Wade getting favoured over younger stars like Russ and KD
It’s sad because this was the 2 3 2 home format so because they lost game 2 they didn’t have home court advantage for any other game
If OKC wins that game 2 they would’ve had 2 last games at home where they were excellent
That boy Bosh has a lot of sugar in his kool-aid, did y'all see that celebration haha
anyone notice the ref gave coach spo a high five??? @12:45
Thunder trio just weren't ready yet.
They needed more time more chemistry.
Too much competition in the west.
They played in too many
game 6s and 7s.
Man harden always never showed up in the playoffs
man never had that much playing time idiot
By far the most athletic-laden NBA finals sans Jordan & Kemp!!!
D wade: we fight! We fight! We fight! Let's go!
One of the biggest NBA mistakes for the Thunder to move of Harden. Imagine them keepkng Harden and then trading Westbrook for a great big man and a role player ?
You know I ball just like the heat 🔥🔥🔥💯
I forgot how terrible harden was all series
Harden wasn’t harden yet ppl forget that & 😂 I guess you can much ain’t change
“Charmers and Durant exchanging recipes.”😂
if you watched this live you remember how horrific and one sided the refs were for miami the entire series. miami was notorious for how they flopped during this time, they’d most likely win anyway but it wouldn’t have been in 5
Yeah, I hate to admit it,and I'm a Miami fan but the refs were kinda biased here. And I ain't saying they made Miami won the series but I don't know, most calls went Miami's way.
i'm wifin' justina valentine games 2-4 were winnable games for okc but their best player kd was always in foul trouble for a lot of touch fouls. the series should’ve went 7 but i do think miami probably would’ve won anyway though
@@billyfresh23 The worst phantom call i have ever seen live was during this series. KD cleanly blocks Dwade going for a dunk, gets called for a foul. After review, they see there was so no contact from KD, so they change the foul to westbrook even though he was like 5 feet away from the play.
Kai ma that foul on that wade and-1 when he did the up and under was for me. literally wasn’t touched
@@billyfresh23 The fact that this OKC team was so young made it worse. The officiating clearly got under their skin and they weren't able to play through the bad calls. They had no energy and pretty much gave up during game 5.
Thunder really had a squad. KD, Russ, Harden, Perkins, Ibaka, D Fisher
Prime lebron vs rookie KD
Reminder to go watch Ben Wallace highlights
I LIKE PHILADELPHIA 76ERS AND I LIKE OKLAHOMA CITY THUNDER
I miss that thunder team
Bosh is like that fun guy
