    Well the NBA wants a Game 7 in Oakland so I expect the Rockets to be the beneficiaries of the whistle tonight ... Game 7 is where they bring Brothers in

    League is saving the Foster Brothers for Game 7.

    Come on, Rockets! Adam Silver wants you to win this one!

    Didn’t Fraher ref in Game 1? This is good for us since he will not want to miss landing spot fouls again.

    The best strategy is complain at every dead ball to stop the action.

    Make the game terrible for ratings, Adam silver can suck a lemon.

    I mean really, it's true. No one on warriors besides Durant was shooting lights out.

    Capaela should be a step ahead, head and shoulders above the competition at the age of 24.

    Rebounds and not dropping so many passes. Those 2 things an we win the whole championship.

    Marc Davis is the ref I respect the most, so I'm glad to have him. Honestly though, I think we're going to win tonight no matter who is reffing, so I would have rather had Marc Davis on Sunday, but I'll take what I can get.

    It’s most likely to be Fosters/Brothers for Game 7.

    To be fair, the NBA knows the ratings for a Game 7 would be through the roof. So, maybe we'll have nice refs tonight.

    Reffing configurations are more reliable indicators of victory than literally any box score statistic, if you assume normal distributions.

    Let that sink in.
