he needed those 15 ft's to pad his way to 36

[Warfan]

Are people acting like this was some special game? I mean he had a great 1st qtr which helped give OKC a solid lead, an okay 2nd qtr and a not so great 3rd qtr (i think he was 1/5 or 1/6 from the floor), and was something like 9/21 with 26? points and a couple boards by the end of the 3rd. Then he padded his points and rebounds when the team was up by 20 in the 4th. Good game, nothing great.

Like I told someone else, 6 of those FT's were off of the Grizzlies intentionally fouling him to prevent an easy transition basket. Another was a technical FT shot. So he was essentially given just 8 FT's.

Watching the game can do wonders for people.

And not that you necessarily said he was gifted those FT's but I'm sure someone would have implied or said it anyways.

Agreed but many people are trying to put this into the 'great clutch playoff moments'

I don't watch ESPN so I don't know what they said but I haven't seen anyone on here calling it a special game.

Like you said it was a good, not great game. For Durant performances like these are to be expected in the playoffs it's just this series Tony Allen and the refs allowing overly physical play made him look human the last two games.

But if anyone called this performance special thats about as dumb as the people who said he was getting "shut down" in games 1-3.

The problem is the Durant haters are upset that OKC now have the momentum going into game 7 and will likely advance to the next round haha
