The Thunder got too much of themselves when they crushed us. The basketball gods frown upon hubris.

Here are their team splits by month… look at their FTA… fans started clowning on OKC and the refs adjusted the meta accordingly.

Wait. Are you basing this off of the whole month of January or just the one game… or both?

The two games in January and the 13 games in December. Did you even read it?

I did. I just don’t think it’s that huge of a drop off.

I don't see any evidence of 'official' adjustment; just standard variance

thru all the fan chatter about OKC getting helped bu the officials, they only rank 19th in FTA this seasons. And they were 26th last season.

Dropping by five attempts per game from November to December is not a lot? Over dozens of games? When their bread and butter is getting fouled and shooting Free Throws? We spent a decade yelling at LaMarcus for averaging 18 points a game instead of 23! Suddenly losing five to seven points a game is a big deal.

An 18.5% drop month to month is not “standard variance”. Sorry but that’s huge.

Perhaps. I just wouldn’t include January at all in the graph is all I’m saying. That 19 looks impressive until you see it’s just one game.

I don't even really care about the 19. The 21.2 is a big enough drop to point at

Also it’s two games (1 win and 1 loss). Please refer to the column NAMES

Alright, you got me there. I’ll still wait 6 or 7 more games to see if it’s a trend or not.
