    The internet is weird.

    Of all the things to get upset about, this?

    The game wasn't over and even if it was, we're still most likely going to get eliminated. And it's been a bad, unhappy season

    Wasn't there an NCAA coach in the tournament that didn't even flinch when his team hit the game buzzer? Everyone was like wowowowow hes so cooool man. Rockets act all chill and people lose their minds. Its just folks trying to find something wrong with a nice win.

    Coach Jay Wright obviously didn't want his team to advance. *******.

    100000000000000000000x this. There was 2.7 left on the clock and Warriors were about to get the ball down by 1. That's way more than enough time for them to score and win the game. Not time to celebrate yet.

    This is ****ing stupid, watch the game again Dwight's hands were in his jersey and he lifts them up when Harden scores, not exactly what somebody would do if he doesn't care. :rolleyes:

    I'm not sure Dwight will be gone, I don't think anyone will give him the 30M he wants. Maybe 20M and he stays a rocket next year.

    So I don't have the time to go through the previous 8 pages but let me just say this is an idiotic thread and just needless.

    I'm not sure if they showed this on tv or if anyone has mentioned it yet but as Harden came back to the bench after that shot, Dwight was one of the first to give Harden a highfive/low five whatever it was I don't remember.

    Too many people trying to be like Bill Simmons and go all body language detective.

    Three players who were probably upset they weren’t in the game.

    I'm honestly more unsettled that when DMo came over to Harden to celebrate..Harden pushed him away...

    That was way more questionable behavior IMO

    James should embrace the guys that do work hard and hustle.

    Dwight was having a pretty good game, but had to be taken out after Hack-a-Dwight started...where he usually shoots about 12%. We were up the ENTIRE game until the last 90 secs or so of the game, and even though we had just taken the lead... 2.7 seconds left is an eternity. There was a lot of sour near the end of the game, and while Harden's J was the "sweet" I'm glad that not everyone was celebrating before the final horn.

    Even though Howard had both hands in his pocket, I did see a reaction from him.

    This is the the most ludicrous excuse ever.....a millon times teams have gone crazy with time left on the clock....and your back to business when timeout is called and regroup.
    Howard was mad JB sat him even in the final 2 min when they couldnt foul, and it showed there and showed when he got subbed out.
    He is such a baaby that he cant get over things quickly and it shows through out the game, weather its stupid coaching, teammates not passing, or opponents getting under his skin.....he doesent have the mental make up and its been real obvious this year.

    Why do you think James doesn't embrace hard workers? Because you once heard on CF that Dmo can't sit with Harden??

    Why would Harden's reaction after the shot unsettle you? Nothing wrong with Harden's reaction. Like Howard, he probably knew that the game wasn't over.

    Had he high-5ed everyone else, celebrating with all teammates except for Dmo then, yeah maybe, you could feel that way.

    completely legit thread. Dwight has been a good teammate since being in Houston, so i give him the benefit of the doubt. But come on guys; this is a playoff game against one of the best teams in NBA history. If you can't get excited about that, I don't know what to tell you. It's not fair to judge people based on their public expressions, but i expect more enthusiasm out of those guys. They deserve the flak they are getting.

    how can you guys be so stupid ? Howard was clearly pumping his fists inside his shirt. Anyways, the game was not over yet so celebrating would be stupid when the most important possession still had to be played.
