    Wow!!!!

    I'm convinced the league has it out for dwight and this rockets team. That is not a tech on any level of basketball let alone a national televised NBA game.

    that was it?WOW
    I was watching the Bucks game and I only read it in twitter that Dwight got ejected...FOR THIS? WTF

    And btw Adams is one of the dirtiest players in the nba, always throwing elbows. Instead of giving techs to Dwight perhaps the NBA should start lookint at Adams and Bogut?

    When the game's that rigged it's hard to care much about the loss.

    Bs call either way. Too many missed calls overall.

    Refs played great defense against the Rockets tonight.

    Keep your head up Dwight.

    Refs gave us that Amber Rose treatment...

    Not just that call either, it was the whole game

    Refs had money on this game.

    They had OKC 7+

    that's the 2nd tech he got. not directly ejected from that one play.

    just to be clear...

    I also think they should double check that foul Westbrook did on Brewer that was a no call.... Such a mess all around. I mean then they go and review the PBev play for a flagrant... since he needed to stop the play.

    Looked like Dwight said something to the ref. Must have been pretty bad to cop a second t

    It is depressing watching stuff like this. Dwight deserved to be in the Allstar game and he deserves better than that. It is digusting how much the NBA is rooting for the other teams while we just continue to get crapped on. What else does Alexander have to do? Does he have to donate his fortune to Silver for a championship? Dwight has been a great citizen of the NBA lately and the city of Houston . I'm proud to have that guy as a Rocket. Screw the F'n Refs
