The fans need to do some things to intimidate the refs. It's time to take advantage of the home court advantage.
Make the refs make calls. If they call a foul on four straight possessions to start the game, so be it. On offense, the Rockets have to finish at (through) the rim, no layups. Finish through the W's and make the refs blow the whistle. Whenever Harden drives looking for a call and he doesn't get it, the W's are off and running. Finish! Go Rockets!!
"refs you suck" wouldn't be as effective as the chant "rigged league" or "match fixing". the crooked cummissioner will surely be there in the stands tonite and would take notice of that
This instead of chants attacking the refs, the chants being broadcast nationwide need to be directed towards the rigged league 'This is Rigged' chant >>> 'THis is Bullsh//tt' or 'Refs suck'
Out of the three refs announced for this game, Foster might be the least likely to hurt the Rockets from everything I've read today. So, maybe we should watch the game before passing judgment. The other two refs favor the road team much more so than Foster.
I’ll pay $50 to clutchfans and to the person who has the balls to throw a beer at Foster or another ref if the rigging is in. I’m dead serious!
If people really believe the NBA is fixed, why do you all even watch? What is the point of watching a sport if you know the league has already pre-determined the outcome?
Because sending Brothers was too obvious.......instead they send Brothers’ stooge Foster. Still obvious, league. Gettr Done Rockets. 5 against 8. You have the 6th-man (person) in the stands.
It's just that Reggie Miller is so annoying. I agree with what others have said regarding the crowd and playing at home. They need to be loud and take no prisoners as far as the refereeing is concerned. Players need to focus on execution and making plays and leave it to the fans at the game to deal with the refs.
