    Not mad. Harden had a wide open shot to tie at the end... he just missed. It happens.

    On to the next one.

    Because Lin wasn't as open as Harden.

    Refs calls were one sided, enough said.

    Harden was wide open on the final shot, you are dumb if you think he shoulda passed it up

    Played Memphis at their own game and almost beat them. If not for some horrendous officiating and a tough luck jump shot, this game was ours. I hope this bitter loss gets them pumped up for the playoffs.

    The last time a Rocket choked this bad was Lin against Miami. Harden wasted the last 4 possessions.

    Seriously Lin doesn't get a single touch in the last three possessions? Look at what happened against OKC when they dish the ball out on a drive, Lin is COLD BLOODED.

    if the harden charge becomes two free throws, plus the technical we win the game.... refs win the game for memphis, that's garbage, as Matt put it

    The reason Harden missed was because it was a 2 and not a 3. I have no doubt if harden was behind the line it would have been cash money

    it's not bashing when it's so blatant that even Memphis announcers were pointing it out.

    Harden can't go into the lane late in games thinking there's any chance he's going to get fouled. That won't be called in the playoffs. He can go ahead and do it for 3 and a half quarters, but after that it's either drive in the paint to score REGARDLESS (Brooklyn accent) or just shake and bake and shoot the J.

    Also Lin is clutch, why not give the dude a chance? At least have Harden as the ballhandler and then pick n roll Lin so you have Lin as an option to get a passback if Harden is well defended.
