The officials should be fined for terrible calls or non-calls like that....

    I'm hoping the last two minutes reports will eventually lead to referee fines.

    Karl Lane officiated the other 5 free throw game in Chicago.

    Games like this against division/conference rivals are way too important to let something that bad slide.

    Honestly, when Lebron got that call with <5 seconds left on Sunday, I was b****ing because "You shouldn't get ticky tack fouls like that on the last possession."

    I know the same sentiment should apply to that Harden no-call, but still...f*** that ending.

    Don't worry, you'll get a report tomorrow saying "We're sorry, we missed it." :rolleyes:

    Refs should be fired for repeat offenses. And that Chicago game was one where the Rockets scored a ton of points in the paint, so it's not like they weren't attacking the hoop.

    I swear we better not lose the 2nd seed by one game.

    Don't worry the league will send out an apology and it'll make it okay

    Nothing to see here folks. This is the way the NBA makes billions. Scripted athletic competition, like pro wrestling. The Refs are the wrench to twirk 95% of the outcomes of practically any game.

    How many thousands of games have been decided by refs.... But just as movies are scripted, they are still fun to watch.

    Refs did their job. They run the NBA agenda, not their own.

    This is what the playoffs will be (unless your name is LeBron). Harden isn't gonna be shooting 10-20 FTs a game, even if he deserves them.

    Prepare for the swallowed whistles and frustration in the playoffs when we're not shooting 20 FTs a game

    Les alexander should be getting on that phone to Adam Silver.

    Isn't he supposed to be buddy-buddies with the Commish?

    Someone should have thrown something at those refs.

    I am not quite ready for that just yet. After the crazy bad calls on Sunday, even though we won, to see this crap???? It is totally ridiculous.
