    it's like refs go out of their way to figure out how to be wrong sometimes. that's as easy a flagrant as there could possibly be. chasing a guy down on a full run and just shoving him into the crowd with no play on the ball. i mean, you have to try to NOT call it a flagrant. and then refs b**** that people whine at them too much. get the easy stuff, right.

    How does the league explain that? It wasn’t particularly vicious but it was intentional and dangerous. I’ve seen plenty of flagrants for less.

    It isn't bad, but I'm disappointed. I thought the Rockets would punch Minny in the mouth to start. Minny did not look like they wanted to play. Now Minny has confidence..

    Why isn’t that a clear path foul? No one was in front of Capela.

    A little like the last game, stay with them in the first half, then blow them away in third

    We need to tell these lower bowl types it’s the final game of an 0-15 Texans team and they’d be on knees begging to do anything to be at the game.

    I don't want hear Harden being the best player nonsense until he actually shows up consistently in the playoffs. Look at LeBron's postseason numbers even now at age 33; that's what true best player looks like.

    This is the part where things go really great or really bad.
