    Good restraint from josh. Top of the key 3s should be a no no.

    Let's get the obvious out of the way. A referee meeting was had and the topic was James Harden and the fouls he gets. And it occurs right after the Mavericks game. Hmm, Cuban?

    see this is how i know we have incompetent refs tonight...brewer never placed the ball on the ground, took two steps after you blew the whistle

    the ref on that side of the court is an imbecile

    Yeah, its even easier to manipulate when the Rockets are favorites, as they just merely need to force a loss.

    Not really, he's fouled him about 3 times and the refs refuse to blow the whistle. Harden can get by him any time he wants, the bulls know this. Look at how they set up their defense, Butler is never guarding him alone.

    Wow @ that replay before commercial. Slapped right on the arm in front of the ref and no call.

    Going to be a long night for Harden if he doesn't get the fair calls.

    Our second unit has to create some space. Smith, Jones, Terry, Brewer, Ariza/Pap. Get on the fastbreak and get some easy shots. Our advantage in our second unit right now with Dorsey, Bev in the starting lineup.

    Probably happened before that. Harden only had 3 FT's against the Mavs.

    Anyone who says the refs are being fair to hide homerism is a fool

    The way James has been officiated has changed...eerily similar to one Yao Ming...Refs are looking the other way for contact he takes...This is league mandated...

    Sad. In that replay Harden clearly gets swiped acrossed the arms in front of the refs.
