    Yes, Harden got away with the jersey grab. And yes, you have to call that foul with 0.1.

    While Harden did get away with that foul, you don't watch very much NBA if you think they're gonna call that.

    I wonder if the Jersey pull was part of the play call. I mean it's smart to do in that situation regardless because you are at home and worst case scenario is going to overtime against a very bad mavs team without dirk. The reason I think it might have been part of the play is because the floor was so spaced out making it hard for the officials to watch everything going on thus minimizing the chance of it being called.

    Lol at jersey pull, all that holding happens all the time every game. It's only getting scrutinized now because everybody is watching this play, but if you watch at other parts of the game, people are always holding each other.

    Pretty much. I see a lot of NBA fans saying "They never call that then though." so? He mauled Harden, swiped right on the arms. 100% a foul.

    If they hadn't made that call, every self-respecting Rockets fan on this site and throughout the world would've lost their everloving ****.

    Rightfully.

    Oh, and then the NBA would've released their little Book Report stating the obvious: it was a foul.

    Why is there even a thread on this? It's the Harden rip through, one of his trademarks. Wes got him across both arms, easy call.

    Speaking of trademarks, does he not do his 'stir the pot' any more?

    It was there for everyone to see. Refs fixed this game for the Rox.

    Didn't Matthews get away with a blatant blocking foul that was instead called a charge on Harden instead late in the 4th? If that play was called correctly Matthews will have been done for the rest of the night.

    HOUSTON -- James Harden blamed the added suspense on Rockets coach Mike D'Antoni.

    "Coach messed me up, man -- he said, `Make the first one and miss the second one,' and I did the opposite," Harden said with a smile. "I'm just happy I made it and we came away with the win."

    Didn't watch the game yet so this is my first time seeing this, but:

    1) Yes, you make that call.

    2) I loved this because Matthews' hatred of Harden is obvious. So seeing him commit the foul on Harden that lost them the game is very nice.

    I don't understand the question.

    If the opposing player blatantly fouls a shooter, should you call it?

    Um, yes? On the other hand, maybe we don't need refs and we can ask the players to do it.
