    After the first OF called on Harden, Celtic Horford lowered his shoulder to bounce off the Rocket player to lay up the ball...that too is an offensive foul. If the refs are going to call OFs at the end of the game, they need to CALL ALL OFFENSIVE FOULS. Check it out in the replay...it is there. Let's see if the 2 minute report picks it up.

    What happened to them cleaning up that flopping bullshit? I can't believe the refs fell for that **** twice. And Harden should've known after the first time they would call that crap it again. So give up the damn ball quick.

    I saw when he was shuffling his feet with the ball and the ref was right behind him. No call
    Too busy watching the defender to see if he could find a reason to blow the whistle

    Easy if a player tries to bear hug you... Arm lock him and fall down backwards. Smart players will find tricks to use against certain players... Battier used a eye cover thing against Kobe... some times it worked, other times it did not.

    Move your feet lateral. He bulldozed straight thru a smart player.

    Locked Arm would have been an offensive foul in this game

    you know, we lost this game in the 3rd quarter by not trying, james turning the ball over 4 times in a row because he didn't give a ****, and gordon airballing every shot he took, but losing a game on marcus smart falling down with 5 seconds to go? seriously?

    This is what the NBA has turned into.

    Flop. You just said that Harden should have done what Smart did...but just flopped first.

    How about INSTEAD we move on from YOU?
    You only seem to know how to post about how much you hate James Harden.
    You seem to think that there are other better players available somehow.
    Why don't you just leave this forum and go to the forum of your 'better player' and be happy there?

    Feels like half the forum would be happy with Dwert and Lin still on the team and Harden gone. People take for granted the **** this young man does with the poop he's had around him on the court *Paul not included

    think rockets strategically trying to lower to 2 or 3 seed so that we can avoid both warriors and thunders in the first and second round....

    Proof that FLOPPING WORKS. And MULTIPLE TIMES IN THIS GAME AND ALSO IN THE CLIPPERS GAME
    Can't tell me that wasn't discussed in their locker room as a strategy.
    You can now fall down on critical plays against James Harden and refs will blow the whistle.
    Is THAT the new Harden rule they came up with? ;)
