    Well, that didn't affect Westbrook's triple double. So it's inconsequential, right? :p

    Anyway, it's a little more forgivable than the backcourt violation no call. This one you can give an excuse that the refs had to watch 6 or 7 players going for the rebound and missed Adams. The backcourt violation had NO excuse whatsoever.

    The refs have been struggling, but the Rockets don't exactly make things easy on themselves. I'd like to see the Rockets settle down on the chirping after the refs blow the whistle. I think our players being a little more respectful to the refs will help us in the long run. Just let D'Antoni work the refs. Shut up and play harder.

    As long as they keep calling fouls correctly for Lou/Harden, I am a happy guy.

    Either way. We're all biased to some extent.

    So... everybody "e-we, e-we get your bias on"

    We are pretty bad too. If we are down at any point in any game, we want a new gm, trade Harden, and start a rebuild.

    Michael Jordan always pushed off back in the day. James did nothing different. Good no call by the NBA.

    Or think about it like this; offset call for not calling the lane violation by Adams.

    not in the least, I just think [sigh] adds a touch of class and despondency to ANY thread. Why just look at how some of today's threads would be improved by the simple addition of [sigh]:

    [sigh] Travis Scott to play before game 5
    [sigh] NBA Awards to be announced AFTER the playoffs
    [sigh] Harden's ankle
    [sigh] The Westbrook bias is out of control!
    [sigh] James Harden is allergic to running

    The [sigh] and the exclamation point conflict a bit. I think an ellipsis would be better on that one.

    These miss calls would not matter if the Rockets would have played better in the first quarter. There were missed calls on both sides and calls that shouldn't have been called on both sides. This is not a Sacramento or Yao screw job but Rockets playing down to Thunder's level and thankfully coming out with the win. Have to do a better job because Memphis and San Antonio will not be as spotty as Thunder has been.

    Thank goodness Rockets are up 3-1 or I would be ultra pissed.

    Countless times these type of calls have cost the Rockets close games..

    Up-and-coming thread title memes deserve their own thread.

    Everyone and their mom knew that Adams was going to miss that FT on purpose when he told Westbrook between FT's. How were they not looking for that smh.

    So the video they show for crossing the plane --- was on Adam's face. Do they have another video that they are not showing? Don't get this one....


    Harden travel for that critical 2 pt? I still can't tell for sure if he did with the video. I do see a little slide, but I'm expecting that is pretty normal for any player taking off from a stand still position.

    Yes, conspiracy.

    He didn't say conspiracy 'theory' so, in essence, he's agreeing with you.

    @heypartner that game 2 over and back non-call was the right call according to the rules.

    No it wasn't. They ruled it the wrong call. It was INC (Incorrect Non Call)
