    that's a clear flagrant 1. Straight by the rules. I have seen it called all the time. They didn't call it at all?
    WOW

    Didn't even get hit with a common well??

    Man it's tough being a Rockets fan..everyone hates us and the refs treat everyone on the team (but Harden) like garbage.

    When is the last time a player got a flagrant for fouling dwight they way they do?

    I remember when Speights hit in the head and the refs said it was a common foul.

    Even GSW announcers knew if that was someone else thats a flagrant all day

    sometimes they miss it, but usually when it happens out of the action. This was the fastbreak and all the refs should be watching. Amazing how they manage to miss it. Just amazing. I know it was a star but that's straight by the rulebook. Flagrant 1 there's not even need to go and discuss it.

    I believe the league is slowly trying to kill off dwight. I guess they don't think he is marketable so they are doing everything they can negative towards him

    Interesting post considering your signature. Either way that was an embarrassment by the officials and it was the first time in a while where hack-a-strategy actually worked against us.

    I'm ok if we lose to a good team as long as we lost.... Not with some obvious bias from the refs that make that mountain impossible to climb.

    Lets not forget this gem <iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/HSavi56dqAI" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

    Or when he got bearhugged by Freeland in the playoffs but the refs game him the foul, which made him foul out

    A clear violent intent to severely injure by Dwight. He should be ejected and fined $5 mil.

    This is the time for the team to contact NBA with video clips on those calls.

    It's possible they want him to leave Houston for the lols. Fans get a kick out these things and it gets them talking. The media would suddenly show Dwight Howard highlights on sports center again.

    If I am a FA and I see the backlash he received from the media and the fans I would think two or three times before joining the Rockets, then change my mind at the last second and sign somewhere else.
