The Refs took over in the 2nd and 4th quarter, altering the flow of the game. It was a foul fest both times the spurs got into the penalty. I'm sick of the NBA officials betting on these ****ing games. The Spurs are too talented to need help from officials.
Meh. Their defense is pretty overrated to be honest. Maybe our offense is just that good, but we consistently got open looks in this game. Threw it away in the end, but that's what this tough stretch is about. Better to make these mistakes now than in the playoffs.
Watch the replay. Should have been an 8 second violation. Ball inbounded with 10.6 seconds on the clock. Aldridge catches ball in front court @2.2 seconds. Should have been rockets ball with 2.6 secs left.
Refs bagged the game for the Spurs. They tried to turn the call on the block, then they stopped calling fouls when everyone knows that the Rockets would foul in that situation. Their bench was better than our bench tonight. Be glad this isn't the playoffs because this would hurt a lot.
Where was ryno? Did he get hurt? I mean he was hot early on the first qrt, MikeD didn't put Clint back in there at the final mins was mistake too
We just cant hold any leads against these guys.In Houston blew a 13 point lead and 17 freaking point lead tonight.If we can clean up some of these mental lapses we can take them in the playoffs.
We make alot of mistakes. but the refs come on Rockets PF 20 Spurs PF 13 Nene get hammer kawhi wasnt touch in that 3 point call the last posetion
well, at least those new guys get to have a taste of what a playoff situation would feel like. can't wait to meet them in the playoff again!

Exactly - the refs were not the problem they missed calls on both sides....throwing the ball away and playing dumb HERO ball late cost us. Kawhi plays such a smart in control game - man - frustrating to watch a team that we honestly have more talent on our entire roster than, but we can't beat them because they play SMART in control basketball - we choke late.....because we don't get those same shots we get in the early part of the game and we have no 2nd option.

IT'S OFFICIAL THE LEAGUE HATES THE ROCKETS. HOW COULD YOU NOT CALL AN INTENTIONAL FOUL WITH THAT MUCH TIME LEFT? AND THEN JUST STARE AT MIKE D'ANTONI LIKE YOU KNOW YOU SHILLED. FK
One play cost us this game. We had a six point lead and they call a ghost foul on the Rockets. Instead of us with the ball and a chance to go up 8 or 9, the devil team cuts it down to 3. Rockets will beat this team if we face them in the playoffs.
I am one hundred percent sure that we would win if that non existing foul on Kawhi was not called. +6 and our ball
