    Refs were VERY good this game. First half they slightly favoured the Rockets and in 2nd half, Warriors got some friendly whistles.

    If reffing remains the same for the rest of the series, I have high hopes for Rockets. Nobody here should cry over refs tonight.

    Biggest flop of the season. Draymond foretold us of this flop in the press conference after game 1- "I was fouled on a James Harden three."

    May have gotten it in Golden State. Refs need to have their eye out for this level of crap.

    I swear that should have been a foul ... on Green. Where the F was and 1, Donkey Green fouled Harden on the elbow with his head.

    Though we need to do a better job closing the paint.

    U know what... one guy looks like nick fury with a beard the other doesnt have single bruise or swelling. I hope every Rocket does this to the Warriors to keep them from trying to slide their feet under.

    I’ve never cheered while an opposing player was down. I stood up and yelled and cheered and laughed the entire time Draymond was down. I wish he was hurt.
    The other 9 players are more safe when he’s not on the floor. You can’t say that about anyone else in the league.

    Okay I lied. I cheered when Matt Schaub went down against the Rams in 2013.

    But that’s it!!

    Who was I speaking with after game 1, that if they kept taking his landing space to come down with the elbow?

    Glad to see it even if it was Draymond flopping.

    That was gorgeous! Green got hit and Harden definitely did that on purpose, but that's the beauty of it.

    Draymond looking at YouTube videos of Bruce Bowen, Karl Malone, John Stockton, Bill Laimbeer, Dennis Rodman.

    Using every dirty tactic to flop and Eject James Harden. I honestly hope Harden elbowed his head, Harden didn't need to fake apoligize like Draymond did, than tried to scratch James Right Eye.

    If we somehow manage to win this series, I'm of the view that Harden will have to have a "moment" just like Kyrie did when they took out the warriors a few seasons ago. Tomorrow will be a dog fights, should be fun.

    That play was such a flop …. he acted like he got punched in the grill by Chuck Liddell …. when it was his momentum that took him into Harden and the contact was minimal …. if anything it SHOULD have been a 4 point play.

    It did have its intended effect tho as the Ref's started calling everything against the Rockets for a short stretch …. 4-5 whistles in a row.

    Gonna have to beat GSW and the Refs ….
