    You know what, ever since the Rockets twitter account was blabbering about Harden getting to the foul line, he's not getting any more calls after that. Its like they were mocking the officials and the officials are making a point and I guess they will just continue to ignore Harden.

    To me, a foul is a foul and it doesn't matter what how many Harden shoots FT. If he gets foul, then call it. I hate how the officials have been lopsided lately and on the other side, the opponents are getting to the FT line almost every trip down while Harden would drive in, gets foul and not get a whistle.

    Just like that, it's back to a 7-point lead.

    Pendergraph needs to work on his trajectory.

    It will not if we keep giving them open threes.

    I could see if they were hitting tough shots... then you could assume that they would cool down.

    But since all of these shots are open they will not cool down, they will continue to hit open shots.

    I don't get it, how are steals counted again? Did Lin get a steal or no? Kind of confused here.

    This. West had a serious mismatch, and he was able to get back to partially contest.

    We put up a lot of points and that's with Paul George on fire from 3. This game is still very competitive.

    Well, he shoots 42% from the field, and 37% in 3pt shots, so he is shooting much better than he should.

    Batum, Kobe, Carmelo, Lebron, Paul George, Crawford, Durant etc etc all had season/career highs against us

    And he's still our best wing defender. Your 2013 Houston Rockets folks.

    Exactly what I was thinking. What the hell were they thinking, teasing the refs like that? I was down on the idea from the beginning but some posters here kept egging it on. Now Harden ain't getting ****.

    A steal is credited to the defender who knocked the ball out. Harden poked the ball out and Lin recovered it. Harden gets the steal.
