Dumb decision by Brooks to take it to the basket but I'm sorry, even in the closing seconds, that is more than enough of a foul to be called 100% of the time. He took his entire arm out. They don't call touch fouls late but that was a massive hack. It's not like they never call fouls in the final seconds. It happens. That should be called every time. I won't complain about the one in Portland because that was hard to see but this one was blatant. At least we won!
Brooks did a great job of being aggressive tonight. Huge 3 by Batman late, but should know better than to get that Tech at the end of the game. Great game!
Great ending to 2009. Happy New Year!!!! What is it going to take for Aaron to start getting some calls in the paint?
Wow, is it just me or is the refereeing worse this year than last? There were some dreadful call and non-calls. Made me wish I were there and could throw some eggs at the refs - they heartily deserve it. My 6 year old Colin wants me to post that Scola is his favorite player. : )
wow some crazy calls at the end i mean if shane gets T you know something was up ok i'll admit I was laughing really hard seeing terry all laid out on the floor like that great W heading into the new year and decade!
heart breaking win best win ever in Dec. Happy New year everyone in USA, HOUSTON (from Australia) btw is it AB career high in 3s tonite???
Ref sucks all the away! but we hold on to winning the game! :grin: How sweat it is! Happy New Year to all of us!
Man, you told me the Rockets would have 20 wins by the end of December, I would have laughed at you. What an awesome team.
Word. Phantom call on the Terry drive. No call on Dirk pushing Battier from behind. No call on a BLATANT hack on Brooks. That needs to be called 100% of the time. It wasn't a touch foul, the kind they let go late in games.
Fair enough he blatantly got pushed across the line.... I would be pissed if a ref with a clear view of that didn't call it!
