    You can name it a “google thread”, but we need all those obvious decisions and indecisions in one thread just to address to it in future.

    Whenever someone is going to google *Rockets - Warriors Game 7 refs” is going to come to this one.

    NBA simply rigged this game. It was an obvious game-fixing by the league.

    At first by forcing game 7, secondary and in much more brutal way here, to force a Warriors - Cavs finals again.

    Second quarter, Rockets are leading by double-digits.

    2 obvious fouls on three-pointers by Harden - 6 points

    Goaltending call on Clint Capela (clean block) - 2 points added for Curry

    Rockets are going to the break leading by eleven instead of twenty

    Third quarter

    And-one play on a three-pointer by Harden - ruled out, inbound on side - 4 points

    - Curry 3PT with obvious moving screen by Looney - 3 points

    - Curry 3PT with obvious moving screen by Bell - 3 points

    Eric Gordon drive with a couple of guys fouling him at the rim - non-call - 2 points

    That’s 22 points on decisions and non-decisions that were an unquestionable mistakes and even admitted by TV crew.

    Decision and non-decisions were made by Scott Foster and Mike Callahan

    the 2nd 3 point foul on harden missed resulted in a klay 3 cause the miss was so bad and no one really got back on D. so make that a 25 point swing

    also that first curry 3, he didn't even re-establish 2 feet inbounds. AND had the moving screen. wild

    Glad i wasnt the only one who saw that he was out of bounds. I even thought there was a backcourt violation on the warriors when draymond didnt establish himself in the front court (i think u need both feet across?)

    I understand there are going to be some missed calls...so those marginal ones may happen...but the blatant/obvious ones...all against the rockets? Definitely impacted the game unfairly, beyond any normal random human error situation

    yep they called that same call when ariza passed it to harden for a backcourt in game 6. zero consistency

    billions of blatant calls missed and i won't be surprised one bit 10 years from now to have scott foster giving an interview about how he rigged this damn game.

    Great vid. Did you make it?

    We can also add the moving screen by Looney (not usre if it was him?) on the bottom of the court and that 3 by curry.

    It is clear the refs tried to make the game closer. We should have been up by 20 at half time. I do think that the goal might not have been to make the Warriors win. But to keep the game close, when that was achieved the Rockets were frustrated and did not shoot well hence a Warriors win.

    The refs had a huge part in this game. They clearly changed the dynamic of the game.

    Also for the people complaining we should have stopped shooting threes, what should we have done. We could not drive so there were not that many options.

    I am really angry with the way this series went down. We were the better team, we should have won. A healthy Paul or a non biased Ref and we would be champion this year.

    While the refs did do their part, I do think it also got in the head of the Rockets. You see James dribbling the ball up with a scold on his face and clearly angry, he is not playing rational basketball at this point. It definitely became a mental handicap.

    I don't even mind missed calls. They are human.

    What I hate are BLATANT missed calls...again...and again....and again...

    At that point either you are a garbage ref OR you are corrupt. Either way, you should not be calling game 7 of any playoff series.
