    But when you've got officials turning a blind eye to constant illegal screens in which one team is wrapping the other up, elbowing the other, etc., and nothing is being called, it leads you to believe the NBA has a set group of teams it would like to win, and in order to aid them in doing so, encourages its officials to turn a blind eye to certain things.

    This is the worst reffed game I think I've seen when it comes to playoff basketball. Especially the last four minutes. What the hell.

    Our players end up getting hugged/grabbed when a pick is set.

    That ball out of bounds off Curry's leg with no mother****ing replay. How convenient.

    The league wants the Warriors in the Finals. I expected to get some favoritism towards them. Didn't expect to get jobbed completely. It's a shame.

    I guess it'll be fun watching Curry and Co. whine as the league plays up the story line of Lebron the savior.

    Don't forget the Draymond missile into Jones. Warriors got another possession off it and scored.

    Dwight was hacked by Bogut at the end of the 1st. It gave Barbosa an open layup at the other end.

    All of these points matter.

    If it's truly rigged, we should win the next two, the longer the series, the closer the games, the higher the ratings, the more money the NBA makes

    That green hit on tjones in the rebound just summed it off. He gave him jj watt sack and they got the foul. That was insane. And how that a foul on brewer when green AGAIN lays backward on brew.

    Miscalling the out-of-bounds late is one thing.

    But NOT even reviewing it is another.


    DAMN

    Those were all legitimately bad calls, but the game was still there for the taking.
    I've resigned myself to never expecting to get a fair shake from the refs, especially against a glamorous team like the Warriors.

    We shouldn't feel fine with playing with a handicap. Refs are gifting the Warriors points and possessions while denying us chances at the line.

    If you think this is the worst reffed game ever, you must have been born in the 90's.

    The Rockets definitely got screwed plenty of times tonight, but it used to be much worse on a nightly basis.

    As long as the rockets are down 6 with a minute and 20 seconds to go we cant say anything right. We had our chance.
