Joey Crawford is one of the refs tonight!!!

Joey Crawford gets a bad rap, but honestly he is much better than many officials I've seen ref our games this year. That's not saying much since most of the NBA refs are atrocious, but it's something.

 

well Crawford didn't really help

Rockets
fouls: 15, 6-7 FTA

Blazers
fouls: 10, 12-15 FTA

 

It is money time

 

I wouldn't be surprised if their so much b****ing about the Rockets free throws from other team's front offices during the regular season that they decided the playoffs would be the perfect chance to show up the Rockets and make them pay for it on the big stage.

 

Stotts has been whining hard all game long.

 

The Refs all series officiate Portland and Houston so different. Especially Harden.

The NBA is making a huge mistake. No one wants Portland to advance

 

Wouldn't be sure about that. Their are a lot of Rockets haters out there.

 

Crawford's actually calling things going our way right now.

 

So...

 

they still have more than double our FTs. this is doubly bad since they're automatic at the line.

 

whats our record in games Crawford was a ref?

 

The game wasn't really called in our favor. I thought it was called more fairly than the other games but Blazers still had the free throw edge despite rockets scoring more in the paint. down the stretch they were calling all these damn touch fouls for Blazers while Dwight was getting man handled in the paint. at one point you heard the slaps from LMA.

 

Joey came through for us tonight. Stern still got his boy Joey on speed dial. Yes, Stern is still secretly running this league. Silver is a pawn.
