[ClutchFans] Rockets escape terrible officiating late

This always seems to happen we play Dallas...

 

Even tho the mavericks are a Texas team I have grown to dislike them more then Utah.In no other circumstances have I seen a team take on the characteristics of its owner more then the mavericks.

 

the no-call on brooks drive late is reason enough to stop watching nba games.

how is it that the league can behave this way with no accountability?

 

That is the biggest issue for this team
Since they work hard and play hard
they have to OVERCOME 'star' calls
which is why so many teams NEED A SUPERSTAR to win

So the 'star' calls can be balanced out



Rocket River

 

Guess that's why Morey tweeted that he would be busy sending tape to the league after the game. I think Brooks had a similar thing happen to him in another game (when Ariza yelled at him). I think Morey's probably wants to make the point "Look, I know Brooks is small and fast, but you gotta notice him getting hacked."

 

Does anybody else think this was possibly some sort of "make up" to get rid of Cuban's stupid protest from the last game?

 

I think Mavericks and Lakers are getting most advantage from officiating. This video is one of the evidences.

 

...when will the Mavs submit their protest for this game?

 

that thought did cross my mind

 

Yup, arguing with the refs and protesting with the league isn't about what just happened, it's about what will happen later.

 

NBA, where gambles happen.

 

I thought so, but how in God's name could you rig the game so apparently when it's in the closing seconds, should of done that in the previous three quarters.

IIRC, Dirk picked up 2 quick fouls in the first quarter, which might as well got called the other way, then Mark Cuban would be completely pleased.

 

I just wonder what could we've heard if there were Bullard instead of Clyde.

 

wow, that was some terrible officiating for both sides.

Terry was hammered on the head, and that Brooks foul was ridiculous. What's up with Terrible officiating when we play the Mavs?!

 

that non-call on the push by dirk was terrible i mean shane is usually the most composed on the court and for him to get a T


brooks non-call i mean i dont get it its so obvious right there the guy is driving straight then falls to the side? he isnt going to change his momentum on his own someone else would have to.


the terry foul was bad too he should have been to the line but I lol'ed at him lying on the floor.

 

From my recollection, Aaron has never gotten a call when he drives in for a last second play and gets hammered. Maybe one day that will change and I'm glad Clutch wrote the article so that other national media types and the Rockets can see it, but right now I'm not expecting Aaron to get that call.

Stop and pop Aaron, stop and pop.

 

What was Trevor Ariza telling Aaron Brooks

Ariza was having an intense conversation with Brooks. Trainer, Coach and Big Anderson had to cool him down.

Does anyone know what they were talking about?
It starts at 2:38 seconds.

He was saying "Hey, Aaron, I'm gonna make sour faces and say a few bad words to get on TV, and hopefully fill up the entire first page of the Clutchfans GARM."

 

Can't tell what they were talking about, but it didn't look like too much to me.

The refs were so bad to the Rockets in the 4th qtr, I didn't think we were going to pull this one out.
