    1. The Spurs 8 from 10 three pointers???? Charmed I tell ya!
    2. The "jump ball" call on Francis' put-back. Quite simply one of the worst calls I've ever seen.
    3. Scores even in regulation, Hakeem blocks Duncan's shot. Rockets ball, Duncan falls ALL OVER Shandon Anderson, pushing him out of bounds. No foul called - it would have sent him to the line for two chances at the game winner with apprx 5 seconds left.
    4. Francis's brain-dead baseline drive in OT that gets stuffed by two 7-footers, just like his previous 3 baseline drives got stuffed.
    5. I sat next to Warren Moon at the game!

    it was actually robinson that fell over anderson after hakeem blocked duncan's shot...and looking at it through impartial eyes, it was more of anderson undercutting robinson than the other way around...

    Are you insinuating that I may not be impartial. The horror of it. [​IMG]

    i'd never accuse anyone of being impartial <g>....

    for those in the group that want the rockets to get a high draft choice, this was a very good game...it was enjoyable to watch..we saw a call that i would guess no one has ever seen before (the block-jumpball-basket on francis) and the rockets lost in overtime...

    it reminds me of the year the rockets had traded away moses and were fighting to get in the coin flip...late in the season they tied a team in the last seconds...a victory would have hindered their grand plan to land sampson in the draft...the rockets were outscored something like 17-0 in OT.....del harris must have reminded the team of their ultimate goal prior to the start of overtime...
