    oh they didn't "deserve" it ? did OKC deserve it because they only played well the last 6 minutes, including two crucial calls that went their way late? what kind of stupid logic is this ?

    how did OKC "deserve" the win more than the rockets ?

    They deserved it bc they weren’t the ones blowing a double digit lead. Maybe if the rockets ever learn from the same issues they constantly talk about they wouldn’t be in the same positions they’re in so many times

    so why does OKC deserve it for getting down in the first place ???? how about play hard earlier in the game and you arent in that position. saying someone "deserves it" more is stupid.

    why wouldn't they deserve it. they didn't give up. they made the plays to get back in the game . the game is for 48 mins. not 42. i see you're biting the rockets mentality. which is stupid. you can have that

    considering denver is missing a number of their rotational players not that surprising. but given how the rockets have played as of late, who knows what will happen

    so if the rockets play hard 42 mins, and thunder loaf it for 42 mins, the thunder deserve it more. dumb logic.

    didn't look like they loafed. rockets made a run then stopped playing. made counteless dumb decisions. play horrible defense. then they lost. yeah okc deserved it. i have 0 sympathy for teams that dont learn how to finish games. especially when its a constant ongoing problem.

    Because they didn't quit when things don't go their way? Something the Rockets team tends to do a hell of a lot.

    Oh man, I'm glad the NBA has admitted they got those wrong. I can feel good about this game now.

    edit: the first one was a bang bang charge call and those are seldom called right. Harden probably shouldn't have insisted on using the challenge on his block earlier.

    But that second one was so obviously a foul on Shroeder that the refs CHOSE to ignore. #SilverAgenda in full effect

    Denver has like 5 guys out tomorrow due to injury and 2 of them are starters, if we lose tomorrow it'll be another embarrassing loss.

    It's been pretty terrible all year long. Especially in the 4th we go into penalty within like the first 2 minutes every game. It's very interesting.

    in the fakers game harden got trapped on the left baseline and threw a pass which was clearly kicked -- i mean it was so clear he stopped playing -- and the other team was just allowed to go down for an easy dunk. we have not played well at all, harden in particular. but at the same time silver has clearly been targeting him. in the fakers game the goaltend on lebron's layup at end of the first half was missed. but for harden there ~20 "missed" calls, including the play right after that one when he and capela were both fouled on shot attempts in final seconds of the 1st half.

    The Rockets must be among the Top 8 most fouling teams, with the most fouls.

    oh but @J Sizzle knows!
    he claims he knows what will happen, so he will bet his house and all that he has on rockets having a big lead only to lose it again

    The kick was bad, but Harden needs to play the whistle. He often just stops playing when he thinks there was a missed call
