    Are they trained to protect the home team?

    Bingo. The sad truth of the NBA. Technically, it's always been rigged since popularity gets you a different set of rules.

    lol, gotta love it when people blame the refs. it's such a pathetic way to blame something other than your team.

    They have me wondering what's happening, I'm wondering if Stern got a couple of midnight calls from Les or Morey where they talked nice things about Stern's mother, because we've received a vicious treatment by the refs this season.

    Randy Foye and Ryan Gomes are handing our asses to us. Please stop complaining about the refs blowing one call.

    True but they must amount to 40% of the frustration we're feeling right now. Refs can frustrate you even if you end-up winning.

    The Lakers game was suspect as hell with them shooting 20 more free throws than us but tonight was Rockets were just outplayed.

    Rockets played like **** but the refs were horrible yet again, i dont blame this loss on the refs, my frustration is more the season long work of the refs, its just not even fun watching the games this season...what did they say rockets avg. 9 ft attempts a game...but theres no merit to the refs doing a horrible job right?

    You have to admit though, the Rockets have the look of a 33-33 team.

    0-33 away.
    33-0 at home.

    I don't know what to call that except ****ty officiating. Am I watching the WWF?

    We played no defense tonight, at the same time horrible officiating by the refs. That's two nights in a row.

    I don't know why but we aren't playing actual centers at the center position. Why spend money? But I do like that we are positioning for a better draft pick.

    The refs don't defend mediocre teams. Major market teams get protection from these guys all the time. We won't get respect until we get a player who warrants attention. Until then, we will be shafted.
