    NBA admits missed call on Dwight Howard in overtime

    I wonder when the NBA is going to also admit it missed the foul on Howard when he threw down Freeland after the missed FT? It was a complete...

    New Injury: Pat Beverley sprains his knee (UPDATE: Cleared to play Game 2)

    For those posting about cartilage "healing", you know it doesn't, right? Once it's torn, it's torn. It's not like a ligament or a tendon. It's...

    ClutchFans Game Thread: Blazers @ Rockets 4/20/2014 (Playoffs Round 1, Game 1)

    Blaming the Refs...

    Hear, hear, HTownHero! The officiating of our game was an insult to the players and the fans. That T on Beverley was complete crap. Perhaps it...

    Is Mchale's lack of in-game adjustments going to cost us this series?

    I think McHale threw the kitchen sink at the Blazers yesterday. He went big, he went small. Eventually, he'll find something that works...

    [ClutchFans] Podcast: Game 1 loss a wake-up call or death knell for Rockets?

    We played a B or B+ game, you played a C+ or B- game. Bottom line, you still have a lot of room for improvement. The Blazer fan base is happy we...

    My Concern about Terrence Jones in Playoffs

    I actually thought Jones didn't play too badly last night. Sure, he can't contain LA one-on-one, but not many can. He was a beast on the boards...

    Portland is a bad matchup for our "stars"

    For the record, we Portland fans feel the same way about your stars. We have no answer for H&H; they're a terrible matchup for us. Dwight did...

    New Injury: Pat Beverley sprains his knee (UPDATE: Cleared to play Game 2)

    A knee sprain is a degree of tear in a ligament. It can be quite minor to major. It's no surprise, however, that he overstressed or stretched...

    New Injury: Pat Beverley sprains his knee (UPDATE: Cleared to play Game 2)

    I don't expect Harden to shoot that badly again this series. He's much too good of a player.
