Good thing they moved, or the refs would have conspired against them.
Seeing how it's the NBA, they might have an argument. Depends - has Durant become a big enough name to become subject to the Jordan/Kobe rules yet, where he gets sent to the line 50 times a game for people daring to breathe on him and is allowed to take an extra step (or three) without being called for traveling? Again, don't follow the NBA anymore.
Durant finished 5th for the free throws attemps(FTA).....His teammates Westbrook finished 9th!

And OKC has been 2nd for the most FTA in 2012!

Phil Jackson had already said in 2010 that the refs treated Kevin Durant as a superstar
Phil Jackson was fined for comments made in reference to Oklahoma City's Kevin Durant, the third-year forward who led the league in free throw attempts with 10.3 per game this season. The Lakers tip off their first-round playoff series against Durant and the Thunder on Sunday.
"As far as the calls that he gets on the floor, I think a lot of the referees are treating him like a superstar; he gets to the line easy and often," Jackson said on Tuesday, prior to Los Angeles' game against Sacramento.
Boston's Kevin Garnett made a similar derisive claim after the Celtics' 109-104 loss to the Thunder on March 31, saying the calls Durant was receiving made it seem like he was "Michael [expletive] Jordan."

Couldn't happen to a better bunch of whiners.
Man, that must suck.
I can't even look at that board for more than a couple of posts due to the atrocity that is the Seahawks color scheme.
And it will probably not the last final for OKC in this decade! Their four best players have 23 years old(westbrook,Durant) and 22 years old(Ibaka,Harden)!
They have very good chance to be the next dynasty in the NBA
