    I remember several times Les walking out on the court confronting officials. Tillman can’t even blast them on twitter.....Mark Cuban has done more today calling out refs.

    D'Antoni didn't say **** during the presser either. He just said the refs did their job.

    Tillman, Morey, Dantoni, Harden & Paul should all have spoken out and take fines.

    You have to make a statement to the league

    Based on some Twitter quotes by Clutch, D'Antoni was being cryptic/passive-aggressive:

    It genuinely doesn’t matter. No matter what anybody on the Rockets says...the league is not interested in calling a fair game. They’ve consistently proven that for the Warriors.

    And honestly...there isn’t going to be any make-up calls for Houston on Tuesday. It was so obviously biased today, that swinging it wildly in the other direction would be far too on the nose.

    Rockets just have to accept that it’s 5 on 8

    He's one owner out 30.

    Calling the league out publicly don't matter

    What funny is that it is possible that the refs will call it fair in game 2 but somehow calling it fair will mean that Tuck and Harden will be in foul trouble. Just watch.

    That’s why I’m all for starting to play dirty going forward. If they don’t call undercuts? Let’s do it too. I’m certain refs will wait no time to call fouls on us. But i don’t give a fxxx. Keep doing it and see whose ankles can hold up longer. That will surely get the point crossed.

    Sad but true. Its even sadder that guys can do something like undercut a shooter, which can cause serious injury and not get a foul. The league should make that a technical really, just because it's an ankle breaking type of penalty. It's crazy how guys play dirty, take cheap shots, cheat, and flop in all sports. A great bunch of characters athletes are. Ugh, and refs are just as crooked.

    This is so wrong —> hurt a person doing THEIR job because you don’t like the way another person is doing their job.

    Psst.., Paul is or was president of the player’s union. Maybe start there.

    Sure it's wrong to do it, but you know God damn well if the Rockets were doing it to Curry at this clip it'd be really bad, and Curry might not get up. Harden thankfully is strong but landing in a players space is super dangerous, they might as well just clobber Harden and least he might land safely. For a player like Curry this would be series ending.

    I don't want anyone to get hurt, the series just needs to be called correctly or just throw out the rulebook for both teams. ****ing stupid, like if the Rockets did this, they'd be out on flagrants possibly.
