    The refs have been screwing us. Sure the team hasn't played perfect, but points and momentum are being completely tampered with most visibly in the loss today against Miami. Pure garbage.

    You can't blame everything on the Refs. Rockets played downright terrible most of the game vs OKC, played atrocious vs Chicago, and just executed poorly on offense vs this game.

    The OKC and Bulls losses were definitely reasonable.
    But holy **** this Miami game. WTF?

    You're being a fool if the you think the main reason for the Rockets skid is the officiating. We went 3-3 in a tough stretch. I'm happy with that.

    Refs

    I guess when a team scores a basket; they can't even touch the ball after it goes through the basket.

    The Rockets are in the same class as the blazers a good regular season team but not a contender.

    The refs do use bs interpretations of the rules and questionable calls to affect the game in the drx the league requires.

    What the hell kind of post is this? A Rockets fan on a Rockets message board calls out horrible officiating and all you have to offer is the above?

    SMH. Stupid.

    The difference between the Rockets and Blazers is the level of defense. One is a top 10 defense whereas the other is like bottom 13 defense. That's the sign of a pretender.

    I don't think the refs cost us the Chicago game. The Rockets starters took care of that all on their own.

    Actually that is the rule, but it often goes uncalled.

    Even though we played horrible down the stretch with a couple bad shots and turnovers, the ref made a couple bad calls that changed the momentum of the game.

    The delay of game wasnn't even delaying anything, if anything he got the ball quicker to the official because it was bouncing the opposite way. I don't even know what the T on Beverley was for. It does change the momentum but we flatout didn't execute down the stretch. No ball movement

    No surprise it was in the away games. Vet teams like the spurs realize the playoffs are all about home court. So what do they do? They TAKE CARE OF BUSINESS AGAINST THE CRAP TEAMS! It doesn't even matter that they got swept by us, because we choked away our entire advantage against the Sacramentos, Phillys and Memphises of the world.

    That's when Lin started playing well....coincidence?

    this is sarcasm... in case you're too sensitive.

    We played tough teams, can't blame it all on the refs...
