    can anyone tell me the call when the Rockets were down 73-70? I was at a sushi restaurant in LA screaming for the Rockets before my wife called for the check and I went home to finish.

    it looked like a Dragic Fast Break followed by a Parsons putback slam. did they call an offensive foul?

    and what was the call on blake(or was it Murphy?) with Dragic starting the fast break off a turnover? was a clear path foul? free throws and the ball?

    and do you guys see the pattern here? how many of these plays can Dragic make before the season is over?!

    it is glorious.

    Dragic got mauled by Pau on the fast-break (even the Lakers commentators admitted to this), no call but Parsons got the putback right after but they called offensive goaltending..which I'm not sure it was..it was close/fast and they didn't show a replay.

    and yeah that was a clear path foul by Blake.

    Metta was channeling vintage Artest in this game. Thank God he got no help.

    Interesting quote from the Chronicle, glad to hear everybody is on the same track which is why I do not want any part of Martin back this year. The guy is becoming like T-mac, crying over playing time and will not settle for coming off the bench.

    I am wondering though why did Feigen specifically state everybody but Boykins is expected to finish a game. The guy was clutch on FTs during the first game so why would he not be in at the end of games and more importantly, did anybody say anything regarding him not finish games?

    That terrible trade as you call it would have guaranteed the Rox a top 10 pick from the Knicks, as well as upgrades over Scola and Dalembert. :rolleyes:

    Lakers fans are annoying. They were complaining about every call. "OH parsons has his hands on kobes back. That should be a foul. " This is the exact phrase of one "laker fan":
    "The refs are cheating. That was not a clear path foul."
    "I hope someone takes out dragic's acl" <----- :eek:

    Some of them were cool. Gave parsons credit on that kobe move.

    "Parsons just made kobe his (bleep)" was the quote

    Flopless Rockets

    Was there any flopping this game? Man, is it just me or is it nice to see a Rockets team that plays hard against good teams without resorting to any blatant flops? Nice game, Rockets!

    I'm sorry I must of missed this. When did Martin complain about playing time, get demoted to the bench and then not accept that role?

    Probably only because he's been with the team for less than 2 weeks now.

    Huge, huge win! Enormous confidence builder. Camby and Dalembert are ruling the middle, something the Rockets haven't had in a while. And Dragic, oh my; he is balling. Scola is coming on and Parsons is a lock down defender.
