    They'll be talking about the 27 straight missed threes instead.

    They could but the way Boogie said it they can’t get him he was smart ! Now Lin will probably get fined

    Yes and when you take away Curry's 3 off a huge moving screen then it adds up to even more..

    The refs essentially robbed us of a 20-23 point lead going into half. The game would’ve been much different. Let’s not forget that the Warriors turned both no calls into two 3s of their own. Basically a 12 point swing if Harden makes 6 free throws.

    I just about fell over when Tim Legler acknowledged the ref screw job on Sportscenter... Dirty NBA didn't even lube up, just went in dry

    I normally don't like blaming losses on officials but those were momentum killing plays and probably contributed to Harden's perimeter game going away later in the game. That was probably the worst officiated game I've seen. Scott Foster is a horrible ref and should be fired after that performance.

    Any lawyers out here? Can all the fans that went to the game file a class action lawsuit against the NBA for basically stealing our money?

    I’m serious I think we have a case based on numbers alone. Over last two season Rockets have won at 75% clip but somehow with Scott Foster reffing a playoff game we are 0-6. That’s not a coincidence, and knowing this why would they send him to game 7?

    Stop blaiming the refs, we shot like 15% from behind the arc, and lost by 9...it's our fault we didn't convert

    Sorry but to me it’s very suspicious that the NBA fines players for being critical of the officiating. This screams corruption, and it was on full display for the world to see. I’m hoping that the Finals ratings are bad, doubtful, but I’m hoping many fans recognize this and tune out. Would be nice if some powerful people like Fertita would call this bullshit and make something happen. How about not allowing betting on NBA, how about blacking out the Finals in some markets. Definitely extreme and won’t happen, but we’re all wasting our time being fans, spending money and expending emotional energy on a “sport” that’s rigged.
