    Game 1: Two free throws to Portland instead of Houston via wrong call on Howard.

    Game 4: Tech foul gives Portland the 1 extra point that allows them, in the end to tie game.

    Thanks NBA...where moral victories are always better than the real thing.

    This is now getting ridiculous...they should be able to review & rescind technicals during breaks or in game. This Tech gave Portland an extra point, the Double Tech on TJ, for being in the way of Mo Williams cost us an extra point...

    Well what happens now? A:

    'Sorry guys that you had to work your butt off for 82 games to get home court advantage just to be screwed over by "the best officiating crew in all of professional sports", but here have an official apology' from the Head office?

    Thanks NBA...we feel so much better now. :rolleyes:


    We as fans deserve better, the players who worked their tails off deserve better & the League deserves better than this. Series should be 3-1 our way or at worst 2-2, but this series has been hijacked by the most atrocious officiating since the Lakers vs Kings fix.


    Rockets in 7


    edit...

    If they rescind the technical, does that mean we win the game?

    That's game right there. It wouldn't have gone to overtime. Wasn't that the same situation as game 1???????

    Nope. It's like apologizing for stabbing someone but the stab wound is still there.

    Lol this kind of **** is so pointless. Nba needs to get better refs end of story. Get rid of prehistoric trash like Joey Crawford especially.

    How can it not be obvious at this point that the nba wants Howard to lose? It's not just bad calls, it's bad calls on him.

    Okay. Now give us the game back. We should have been 3-1 not 1-3.

    This is really infuriating. Like, these are blown calls that legitimately affected the outcome of those games.

    Can't wait for the bad call compilation video after the series is over. Should be entertaining.
