    Choked or cheated by refs? It's hard to win, when your guys are in foul trouble and the refs are letting opposing team get away with traveling, mugging your players, and/or going out of bounds to make steals.

    Did the Refs influence the outcome of the series?
    Maybe...

    Did the Rockets even deserve to go to the next round after losing a game 7 by 40 points?
    No.

    Perhaps there should not have been a game 7. But how they got beat in that game was just embarrassing.

    I propose that 4 additional "stationary" refs are implemented into every single NBA game...

    4 stationary refs at each corner of the courts, to see the angles the refs running the floor can't see.

    David Stern will not allow it because he know there is funny business going on in those ref meetings. And Stern allows it.

    GET RID DAVID STERN AND SAVE NBA BASKETBALL!!!

    It is but in all honesty, I've seen more consistent reffing in high school basketball. Although, I don't follow the NBA all that much anymore, I still have some love for the Rockets. That's really the only reason I bother to check how they're doing every now and then.

    There has to be truth in what Donaghy says. If there wasn't, why would the nba make changes to ensure certain refs dont work the games with players he's known to have a grudge with. I dont think Donaghy says 100% truth but I think a very high percentage of it is.
