Spurs get screwed again by no-call against Thunder

There are missed calls, then there's whatever in Hades happened at the end of Game 5 in the Western Conference semifinals series between the Spurs and the Thunder Tuesday night.

The second-seeded Spurs found themselves down one with 6.3 seconds to play. With No. 3 Oklahoma City inbounding the ball near its own basket, everyone and their mother inside the AT&T Center knew the Spurs intended to take a foul to stop the clock, put the Thunder on the line and give themselves an opportunity to tie or take the lead, if the Thunder missed one or both attempts.
