Shut up windy it’s a reason folks complaining even though the Knicks don’t got no place complaining
It’s literally only really bad vs. Knicks ya gotta wake up 😂😂
Ssme concern across multiple coaches but lets not bring light to the issue, no lets blame the coaches. Call out the Damm refs chubby
OKC definitely gets a different whistle than any one else in the league
Oh Windy,, they got to you huh? So disappointing
He ain't lying tho..?
Mike brown brunson and Josh hart need to do a better job at getting kat involved in the offense, they will not even make the finals with Josh hart or og being the second option!!
I can’t believe Brianwindhorst just Called SGA a genius at drawing fouls! 🤣🤣 see this is why this league along with the commentators on this Program is just a horrendous product. instead of him Saying The Officiating is horrible across the league no he proceeds to Call SGA a Genius What a JOKE!
How many times do you guys think windy blinked during this segment 🤔😂
Foul throws literally stole both these games for the Knicks. Both games were fairly close down the stretch and the free throws not even close. On top of that OzKC hacks defensively. You do the math. Knicks do need to be more consistent but last night 100% was a great effort.
The only sport Windy has ever played is competitive eating, clearly…
Screw Windhorst. Obviously there is a problem and it needs to be addressed. I hope all coaches continue to speak the truth.
the nerve of mike to question the real stars of the nba the refs
As a Kings fan, it's about time refs gave real accountability and consequences for bad officiating.
These people can’t be serious. Just call it like it is. BAD, BIASED OFFICIATING! How you gonna beat the best team on the road when the officiating is completely one-sided?!
SGA bubble wrap
Curso Doggs eats Kats for living. Dude soft a Stephanie
38 free throws is outrageous… windy stop pretending like this isn’t a thing… replays showing that they weren’t hit or fouled yet they’re going to the line, it’s obvious. Even Reggie Miller who is a Knicks Hater Personified was questioning the validity of these phantom fouls.
7th in drawn personal fouls, yet no one else is complaining about the 6 teams ahead of OKC that force more. Lmao the blind hate is in full swing
free throw merchant Alexander
manipulate the refs Alexander
The NBA has a motive of manufacturing a super star in SGA since LeBron is old.
I feel Shay has a beef with Knicks lol
When did espn sign ericka Kirk??
Shai makes me wish free throw line didn't exist, hes great but i hate his game the way he plays for free throws, makes it worse how bias the refs are towards him, unfair really seeing the ticky tac calls he gets, OKC fans a big reason, spending so much $ on the team, NBA clearly milking
The Oklahoma City Thunder are 26-8 when making <20 free throws this season. so it ain't that
If Mike Brown coached as hard as he cries during postgame pressers the Knicks would be the #1 seed right now.
Coaches are upset the Thunder are called to a different st of parameters than other teams. So they aren't "playing by the sale rules" in the coaches eyes.
HEY GUYS, US THE FANS DONT LIKE THAT TYPE OF BASKETBALL. THATS WHY OTHER SPORTS ARE SET TO SURPASS BASKETBALL IN POPULARITY.
Just abandon nba if you don’t like poor officiating
SUPERSONICS ARE SUPER TODAY
NBA makes so much $ from OKC fans, its in their best interest to make sure the team is relevant, the reason free the merchant Alexander gets Free points and bias foul calls, the star treatment is ugly and unfair, NBA politics at its finest, great player but overrated imo, there should be free throw limit per player per game so players cant manipulate refs for points, going 6-26 from the field and getting praise bcuz u were gifted 20 free throws is so dumm , no integrity not fair, just buisness
Should have never gotten rid of Tibbs. They are…
I agree with Windy on the Knicks take. They have one of the most talented rosters in the entire league and although they're good, they should be way better.
Adam Silver just said they were adding another stat called Active Rebounding minutes. This measures the amount of time a player fights for a rebound throughout a game. What y’all think about that?
Sore pathetic losers , OKC is simply a better team , full stop!! Knicker Bockers are my team 100% but im fair…complaining won't help, this game was cery close in the 4th qtr , they simply executed better …this is nothing new , happening from time immemorial
Bro the Knicks shot 35 threes. They should drive to the paint and maybe they can get more free throws
Did he watch the same game? GTFOHWTBS!
Yeah ok wendy but what if they didn’t shoot 40 ft,,,,,Knicks win by 10 you talk about 5 mins of the 4th Q
SGA is a fake MVP. Floppers should not be considered in the discussion, regardless of the system being flawed.
Love that loser talk, Brown. The Knickerbockers are a tier-2 team.
WHAT THA LAKERS THEY A ➕️550 AT THA FREETHROW LINE 2000 FREETHROW AND COUNTING
Let’s Go Cleveland!!! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 y’all gotta talk about Cleveland more!!!
MJ averaged 12 free throws a game. Nobody sitting up here trying to say MJ not the goat because the refs gave him calls. SGA only averaging 11 free throws. So those coaches down bad for even trying to raise awareness as if his free throw count ain’t normal. Mike brown should be ashamed.
Obviously the rules aren’t being called the same way when playing certain teams and that’s unfair sportsmanship
