    One thing though: next time, Harden should play through that **** with Lebron, that could've cost us.

    I'm pumped that we won, but the refs completely killed any excitement I had.

    If the Rockets got a finger on the ball it could have exhausted the time. Otherwise they have .6 down 3 which is enough time for a decent looking three. I would have done the same thing.

    Well, I was close! Best game of the year by far. Harden making his case for the MVP. James was impressive as well. Closer than it had to be because our bigs couldn't make a lay up in the fourth quarter. Great game for national TV. Reminded me of 80's basketball, Celtics-Lakers, old style.

    Well, the refs certainly tried taking this game away from us.
    We got luck, Bron missed the FTs in the end.
    What I don't understand, we ran ISO through Harden b/c that's pretty much all of our offense, but the Cleveland did not get Love or JR involved in the second half.
    I will take the win, not a perfect game though.

    It makes more sense to make that type of call if the Cavs didn't have a time out. Also it'd be a good idea to let the rest of the team in on it to so they can crash the boards and at least cause a tip of the rebound. Looked like Ariza was the only one going for the rebound on the FT.

    I like to think that all those misses were just some divine rebalancing the scales when you factor in the officiating tonight.

    I'm on the miss it side, just shoot it a little harder so the ball rebounds further out and can be contested.

    It's hard to do though, try it.

    The reason why LBJ missed all those FT's, especially after the flagrant and tech calls is because "god knows". He would not allow an injustice.


    "god knows" was the chant we used to say at HS bball games anyway when someone would miss a FT after a bad call

    Seriously, that no-call should not be forgotten.

    I'm so glad the Rockets pulled out the win. I would have hated to give up the years I'm sure this game took off my life for nothing. :p

    If you don't call a foul it was a travel. That was a weird no call and it should have been a foul.
