ClutchFans Game Thread: Grizzlies @ Rockets 3/4/2015

He wasn't trying to draw the foul, he was trying to keep the ball clear of Lee

 

Need to develop technology to replace refs. I don't know how, but Someone please invent it. I HATE refs.

 

Worst refs in all of sports. NBA officiating Union is a joke.

 

If a call like that is missed in the playoffs, referee heads would roll.

The refs just need to be better... and if they can't, they need to hire and train better refs.

 

You can move on a charge as long as you do it moving backward and get a shoulder lower to your chest.

BTW you can't get back from that bad bad call, not time.

 

More concerned about McHale's delayed decisions on necessary in-game personnel adjustments and our porous defense than anything. If we ever got that solved the refs wouldn't be much of an issue.

 

Knowing they made a bad call, I would have hacked the heck out of Whoever had the ball and dared the refs to make the call.
That's what McHale or any veteran should have said.
Also, Josh Smith should have been guarding Gasol.
Also, Bev needs to watch man and ball because more court awareness could have stolen that sloppy inbound pass.
Also, we suck. We should have put this game out of reach much earlier.
We are pretenders.
Truth is we will probably get embarrased in the first round.

 

I thought you were going to have sex with the girlfriend

 

That was a good call. Grizz announcers even said so.

 

Damn, tough loss. The scoring droughts kill us every time. We build leads and lose them to easily.

DMo is just not ready for prime time. Too much finesse in his game. He has to learn to go to the basket strong. Those flip up hooks don't work against good bigs. He will learn.

 

Bottom line is, bad call, but one play doesn't make a game. The Rockets had plenty of opportunities to hold their first half lead, they failed and made it a game. If you don't put it away when you have the chance, it'll get taken from you by someone. For one play, by bad zebras, perhaps, but if you make plays and defend consistently it never gets to that point.

 

Ummm was that the same coach that brought in TJones who carried the entire team down the stretch?

 

Yes sir...and may I add it really wasn't close. Blatant. All you ask for is consistency....you can't bail Memphis out with a call at .5 second and then turn the other way on something that blatant. Don't let a ballgame come down to the refs determining the winner...and that's what happened.

 

It was a bad no call but can't depend on the refs. Just learn, get better and make it count in the playoffs.

 

All you that are blind on here look at J.R.'s post it clearly shows Zbo slapping Hardens arm hard as hell. No way a ref misses that

 

This was a huge game as it could have given them the tie-breaker in head to head over the Grizzlies.

Something tells me it will come down to the final days of the season to decide who has the better record between the two.

 

Let's see what that 2 minute reports says...hate to lose this way!!!!

 

Anyone want to explain why Pablo is not getting minutes? He's been doing a fantastic job running the offense, and that stretch where we had no offense coming is what killed us.

 

We all need to take a step back and realize we are just played 3 of the best 5-6 teams in the league and played well enough to beat ALL of them without Dwight Howard and one of them without Harden.

Pretty crazy.
