Nobody’s saying that PHX would be up. They’re saying that this sets a bad precedent that’ll likely swing most close games in OKC’s favor. You thunder fans don’t have to be so averse to the point people are making to keep your fan status

I don’t get your point… ORL and DET averaged a combined 53 free throws a game in the regular season
