    I suspect the fix will be subtle. It won't be heavy in the volume of calls in the Spurs favor, but instead targeted to stop the game and kill Rockets' pace and momentum at key moments during the game. The telltales signs will be offensive fouls, charges, loose ball, over-the-back, etc.

    I would actually prefer that like OKC going up then running out gas in the 4th quarter. Nothing more cruel than giving hope and crushing it in the end.

    Good thing with having a Cavs Leastern Conference game before the Rockets. Always a blowout

    I think they are going to try and make harden into a scorer like OKC did ... The difference being OKC's defenders are longer and better rim protectors ..

    But if James is going to get hammered with no call then it might work pretty well
