    agreed and its not even close, you are almost waiting for the next story to come out with one of their players crying or whining about something

    I don't understand, what was controversial about the calls? KD's wave off of the 3 and 1 was perfectly in keeping with how refs are calling shots on the ground vs. giving continuation/in the act of shooting calls. GS overreaction was just petulant whining.

    Likewise with the foul call on Durant that ended the game. I get that refs choose not to call that sometimes, but there's no denying that the foul took place. Instead of crying maybe they should just accept that KD wrapped his arms around Towns and visibly held him back. Get a grip and accept your loss.

    Now we have Green posting on Twitter just TD and then MK.

    TD means Tim Donaghy
    MK means Marat Kogut

    Doubt the NBA does anything about it but they just spit in the face of the league.

    They were controversial to the Warriors because they went against the Warriors.

    They're not used to be treated like that by referees.

    for taunting a ref both during and after a game, these clowns definitely deserve stiffer fines than what harden got for fukin foster. but we all know that won't happen in silverville

    We need to start a petition, not mentioning that we're Rockets fans. Surely there are enough Warrior-despising people in this country to get enough signatures to attract league attention.

    There is no more unlikeable team in sports than the elitist, hubris exceptionalism displayed by the GSW Warriors. These sacks of poo need to be taken to the woodshed.

    The Warriors have made the NBA less fun and meaningful to watch, and the ratings reflect this. Yet the NBA still treats them like a golden goose... leadership is incompetent.

    The replay of the game was on as I ate lunch today, and it was really satisfying watching the Warriors preen and celebrate when they took a 16 point lead around halftime. They really are the worst.

    amazing that there's been no fines or anything from the nba yet. if there's no reprimand then it's pretty obvious that golden state just gets to follow a different rule book. or maybe the refs asked for there to be no reprimand so they can absorb all this hate and then unleash vengeance on the warriors in the playoffs. really hope it's the latter.

    Apparently Adam Silver decided not to hold them accountable for that game and instead told the refs to keep a closer eye on them TODAY.

    Boogie just got tossed from the game against the Hornets after getting called for a flagrant 2 for whacking Willy Hernangomez on the head.

    Now that someone on their team has gotten a stiff penalty from the refs, everything can get back to normal and they can start getting away with all kinds of **** again.

    just unreal. thought at minimum there would be fines for the total meltdowns from all the players in their postgame interviews, since it basically automatic fine for criticizing refs that way. to see absolutely 0 response to both the blatant taunting AND the postgame comments is alternate universe stuff. wish other players just start randomly pointing fingers at refs and laughing at them to see how quickly the refs eject them and then compare it to the complete lack of any reaction when the warriors do it.
