    The rule says if it goes in, play continues as usual, the only way an additional free throw can be awarded is if the defense touches the ball.

    Don't get me wrong here. The fouls OKC got away with alone, make this effort by the Rockets equivalent to 3 games against OKC, not sustainable in a PlayOff series.

    I truly hate giving Harden a "great" tag but its so hard not to give him that distinction with his offensive performance. That non existent D has me so salty I would down grade him to a "good".

    Yup, Dwight seems afraid of getting into foul trouble. Asik also got the benefit of the doubt today on some "verticality" calls.

    Probably. Although the Blazers do play the Warriors one more time. So it's still up in the air.

    To his credit, he sank a big one and kept his turnovers down. If he can bring himself to 45% and 34% shooting (his career I believe) then he'll be a lot more reliable as we go into the playoffs. As a believer in the law of averages, he'll get his groove back.

    This one is on refs. Harden alone has FTAs as many as thunders as a team.

    He had a few defensive mistakes this game, most notably his over help, but overall I would say his defense was not a liability which is an improvement from his last few games.

    He did do a great job rebounding and boxing out this game, especially on Ibaka. That was a refreshing sight to see after the Rockets kept giving up easy rebounds to Ibaka.

    It doesn't matter if WestBrook wasn't playing cause we struggled beating OKC without him.

    Rocket got A LOT of favorable calls in winning time so it all evened out.

    lol

    Rockets get a big win over the Thunder but they would rather talk about Astros losing 1-11.

    Houston sports radio for you.
