No reason? The refs is the reason, if the refs make the calls against you, it's easy that one of those players would get frustrated. They are human, you can't ask each one of them can calm down and not make any mistakes under this situation.
I know blaming the refs is the easy way out, but at times it was ridiculous. Starting with the first play of the game (Yao's tip in called offensive interference) it seemed this game was destined to go to game 7. Yao gets fouled over and over again. Same with Tmac who is held and hit everytime he goes to the rim, and lets not even mention Okur's flops. Despite all this, it makes sense we have more FT's, since they never drive to the rim, and the only layups they get are on those cuts right under the rim (which we really need to stop). All I want is consistancy (and maybe a few calls for our superstars ). I still believe, Rockets in 7
If the refs would have called all the hand checks, slaps and two-hands in the back in the post, we would have been shooting free throws for 80% of the game.
Actually I think the refs were fine tonight. We had a couple of bad calls but we all know that's part of the HCA itself. And there were not so much bad calls on us that could alter the comeout anyway. Turnovers killed us though, as much as an almost YOF (hi, Chinese talking here), Yao's two 3-seconds violations in the late game really made me mad
I'm Chinese, those turnovers on Yao won't bother me at all. Big Yao will bounce back in Houston. Dwade made 14 TO a game if I remember correctly. Suck it up and go for game 7. Go Rox!
If our 3s fall like it is raining, we will still be able to come out with a win despite of the fxxxing referee.
