    for #Flopofthenight SMDH at the refs. I thought kicking out your leg was considered an offensive foul now? The league really needs to do something about this. Among other things this was a big reason for the loss last night.

    Sorry if this should be in the dish..figured it had something to do with the Rockets.

    this was a huge call in the context of the game. we had a lot of momentum and the refs stomped on it.

    Where is ZBOY now. He screams like a b**** when a Rocket does it but nowhere to be found when teams repeatedly do it to us. A troll if I ever saw one.

    If we miss the playoffs, 95 percent of the blame is on the refs. We didn't get a call ALL SEASON

    Bennie Adams has been an awful ref for quite some time now.

    I dont know if its the shortened season or an increased amount of rookie officials but the officiating this season has been just turrible across the board.

    Very bad call...good flop though, he looked like he got shot.

    At the other end, Dragic was getting mugged with no call, because he doesn't flop.

    Along with Kyle and Scola trying their best to get a call and still nothing. Basketball reasons I assume

    I usually don't blame the refs for a loss. But yesterday's 4th quarter officiating could just have given the game to Denver. There were several wrong calls against us in a short period of crunch time and we ended up losing by only one basket.

    what makes me sick.... is that the refs proved, with how they did martin, that if they really wanted to, they could get the officiating right. But it's not good business.

    Are you serious? I want flopping removed from the game period.
    If that requires that all frequent floppers be removed from their squads and put to the proverbial death by firing squad, then I'm fine with that.

    What cracked me up about that play was I couldn't tell if his leg that he threw out to get hit was even hit by Dragic. It looked like it passed in front of Dragic, but I'm not sure. Terrible flop, but worse officiating.

    I think floppers should be castrated. But maybe I'm going too far.

    I just wish there was a systematic approach to dealing with floppers. There are obvious ones, but then there are the good floppers who look like they actually get hit.

    of course he does, but we still don't get calls. last in the league...all season long. even when k-mart was healthy..we had the lowest rate of fts..
    feel like this team has resorted more to flopping when we aren't getting calls and it just spirals down.

    bobcats have more fts/game than us...the bobcats..probably one of the worst teams in the last decade.

    This is where you need the owner of your team to speak up about it. If Mark Cuban owned this team I bet we would be getting double the calls because he b****es so much about it for his own team!

    Where are you Les?
