    this is blatantly robbing us of the championship. the nba won't look into it because they got what they wanted.

    No need to talk about this ****, **** already happened can't don't anything about it anymore, it was completely obvious of who the nba want to advance, I know we missed tons of threes but that **** was rigged, *** it

    It doesn't help win a ring this year, but we are the only team in the last 2 seasons to take the Warriors to the brink of elimination (not once but twice) while all of the other teams won no more than 1 game against them (with KD)

    It also took CP3 to be out for the Warriors to battle back. If it was Curry or Klay out for those last 2 games then we would have advanced. Bad luck on CP3 getting injured in the closing minute of game #5 but such as life. We have shown that we have the team that can compete and win as is. Adding one more piece would most likely put us over the top. The question remains is how can the Rockets maneuver salaries to stay on top for the next several years?

    They posted stuff on twitter claiming they made the right calls...It's hard to claim something is wrong if they are they one rigging it...FCK the NBA.

    Rodney "The Rocket-Killer" Hood would have killed the Rockets.

    What did Tillman do about this? It's clear Adam Silver wanted this to happened and used Scott foster and the refs

    All I can be grateful about is that they didn't call a foul on Hakeem's block on John Starks in game 6 of the '94 championship. Hopefully the NBA Finals ratings suck for the NBA and they get their act together, but I'm not counting on it.

    SO FCKING PISSED thinking about these kinda crap. Imagine supporting a team for 20 years just to be shot down by a rigged system...

    If lebron was being fouled like that and getting no calls he would complain nonstop until he gets what he wants.

    Chuck - LBJ + Harden + Cp3 is not the same as Dream + Clyde + larda$$.

    Problem is that he never stays healthy. Around playoff time he always breaks down. 45-48 per year

    yep but he is a joy to watch a leader and a recruiter....and you pay him if he can recruit lebron

    harden and lebron can do the job in playoffs and cp3 can give us a nice regular season
