    Gordon knew it was good too...did his little hop that he does when he knows it's good before it dropped through

    Harden tackled Embiid but you trailer-trash don't say anything when the refs let that slide.

    Uhm, with 2 seconds left with 2 long-armed defenders on you, with little room in the corner, both actually right on him and you could see he had to let it go earlier than he usually does and somehow the level of dificuly wasn't too high. For Curry who is used to releasing low on his quick threes it might be not too difficult, but for anyone else, I think it's a pretty tough shot with those guys very close to him and a high chance of diverting the trajectory of the ball / shot block so that release was crazy.

    I love Harden's taking out two players at once. He's like, if they're going to let me play physical, I'm playing offensive tackle right here. Boom > Splash Gordon open.

    Correct because the refs missed about 5 legit fouls on Harden and gave Embiid at least 3 fouls he didn't deserve during the game. Plus, there's a foul on Embiid that doesn't get called that forces Harden into him. He literally trips James into himself. Only two things Harden did was one) accept that a call wasn't going to be made and two) put an arm up on Joel to create some space.

    That was an all around terribly officiated game. You're welcome to get off your high horse and enjoy a victory with us if you're actually a Rox fan. Come enjoy the trailer park life with me Bubbles and Julian.

    Nah, he was in the middle of celebrating when he realized his meal ticket was on the ground, and went to go help him up.

    You are an insult to Benny Anders, with all due respect, and trailers across America. At least spell his first name right when you're busy making a fool of yourself.

    That shot made my day last night. I was jumping around high-fiving the wife when it went down. I didn't even get that excited when the Astros won later on. There's nothing else like Rockets basketball.
