    You weren't the game. He did not throw his hands up in this instance. Randolph grab his arm.

    Serious question, can't the refs check the replay? I don't know if they did.

    Don't forget our coach letting them take a 6 point lead to a 10 point lead, refusing to make any substitutions even after calling a timeout. That could have made all the difference.

    They had just called a contact foul on the other end, so they weren't just swallowing the whistle.

    Normally Harden does get some ticky-tack calls, but this was blatant arm on arm contact that caused him to lose the ball.

    Refs should also keep that in mind with Harden... he rarely, if ever, loses the ball... unless there is some pretty awful contact.

    This is what the playoffs will look like

    No calls and not shooting 20+ FTs every game (we shot 5 tonight)

    No, we were in the penalty after that foul on Lee.

    the opposite, if clippers win we go to the third seed and if clippers lose, we stay at the 4th seed

    No... in the penalty with 2 fouls in the last two minutes. They had already fouled Lee on the possession before.

    Ken Mauer and his crew has a rep of screwing the Rockets over with calls...it sickens me that the NBA lacks consistency one night to the next...pathetic. And the fact that this team shot 5...5 FT the entire game is pathetic. And the visiting shot 17...

    I thought he lost control as well but on a closer angle you can clearly see Z-Bo hit him on the arm BEFORE he looses control of the ball. Cause and effect.

    I don't think Harden was depending on the foul, he was driving to score or dish out to a shooter. But it was a clear foul and it had to be called. You can't let that go.

    With that said, they really need to start fining referees who miss blatant calls.

    I called it after the CLE win. There may be a backlash against James from the refs.

    Gotta think more strategically. Can't depend on ref calls now.

    Adjust our game to play through calls.

    NBA coaches should have a review flag, i'm serious. So many games are determined by horrible calls.
