When did I say that they weren't? I ain't preaching ****, so shut the hell up. I've been complaining about how the refs screw over Yao since way before you started doing it. I'm just saying that Yao has to stop it with the stupid fouls, cuz its beyond our control how the refs call him.
If Yao is too nice to do it, we need to feed some material to the media in China and let them spread the impression that Yao is mistreated in NBA. Someone edit a clip of bad calls and write an article. I bet Chinese media will take it.
I say we start the ball rolling to call into the NBA to b**** about the calls on Yao and more importanly the non-calls on Dirk and others!!! I'm willing to step up and call the league office on Monday, but the only way we'll get any attention is if there's a FLOOD OF CALLS saying what a bunch of BS the last five minutes of that game were as far as fouls are concerned!!! Whose with me? Anyone, anyone... Bueller??? Let's GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!
I think the owner of the team, LES should step up!!!!!!!! CUban's words are working !! damn !!!!!!!! where is our LES!! dirty DIRK, he is such looser!
He has cut down his stupid fouls, all right! We have a right to blame refs before Yao becomes a saint! Everyone committ stupid fouls, such as hand checking 35 feet from the basket. Both sides do that. The game is seperated by 4 pts, not 14! So stop this "be hard on yourself routine"
I'm really hoping that the calls will balance out soon. I don't remember the Rockets being this much foul prone during the regular season. Cubans referee tactics seem to be working and I just can't see how that can be countered. Heres some game statistics. Personal Fouls by game Game____Hou____Dal 1________27_____20 2________24_____22 3________26_____27 4________28_____22 TOTAL____105____91 Average__26.25___22.75 +15.3% more vs Houston Houston averaged 22.0 fouls per game for the regular season. Dallas averaged 22.3 fouls per game during the regular season. Free Throws awarded by game Game____Hou____Dal 1_______20______42 2_______27______26 3_______25______37 4_______26______27 TOTAL___98______132 Average_24.50____33.00 +34 more attempts for Dallas +35% more attempts for Dallas Just one or two calls go the Rockets way and this series would be over by now. I just wished Les was as fiery as Cuban. Edit. Just realized we are giving up almost 9 potential points per game versus Dallas. Hate to say this but Dallas is getting all the help they can.
How do you call the NBA? I was only able to find an email form. I hoping that people would flood them with emails. They cant ignore a mailbox full of complaints.. Here is the link again: http://www.nba.com/webAction?action.../email_us/email_form_041027.jsp&surveyId=1152
Sign me up. I need the #. Don't Rockets have a # that we can call and demand them to do something about this?
No No No.....Refs(although they suck...they suck for both teams) don't win or lose the game for you. The players have to understand how they are calling it and play accordingly. Dallas just kicked our ass plain and simple. Deal with it. I'm going to go cry myself to sleep now. Bye.
well, I broke a few boards of our back yard fence after the game. My fist kind of hurts, but nearly as much as my heart. That was total BS (late in the game).
As I mentioned in the game thread, NBA refs are either stupid, blind, rigged, or racist. There can be no other possible explanation for what we've seen against Yao in not only this game, but over the past 3 seasons.
Dirk should not get another call for the next 2 years. Dirk = Karl Malone.....a 7'0" flopper...amazing how the wind knocks him down so often, but he has nary a scratch. DD
Already send a messgae through the link 5 times. If someone edit a video clip, I will do my best to get it sent to as many email lists as possible.
My point was that Yao is fighting an uphill battle against the refs so he might as well make the most of it by not commiting stupid fouls. I agree that its not ****ing fair. I mean when the refs call him for elbowing dirk in the face when his arms were obviously at his side, wtf can u do, yknow? I mean without that play and the play last game where they reversed his 3 point play and made it sidelines takeout, and this series might be over. But ****, what can u do? Anyway, sorry if I went off on you - I'm pissed cuz it was a hard loss to swallow, aiight?
I thought that was JVG's game plan, inside-out, remember? However, if we want to establish an inside-out game, we need people who can complete the OUT part of the deal. we shot like 29% for 3's this game, and that was not gonna make it easy for us.
If you look at Dirk the wrong way the officials will blow the whistle. Its ridiculous. I believe it was game 2 (or maybe 1) when they showed a replay of a Bowen getting a foul on Nowitzki where Bowen was just standing straight up and there was a foot (or 2) of blank space between them and no contact whatsoever...this is BS
NBA Phone Number 212-407-8000 Thats all I was able to find as far as the contact info...other than the mailing address and the feedback email form.
The sh!tty thing is the call is always make against us that totally take us out of the game. I realized now how Yao plays totally affect the psychic/morale of the team. When the refs are giving Yao a and one or go to the free throw line, everyone is up there cheering. When Yao get robbed like last game, get taken out by a Dirk hard foul, which should totally been a 3 point play, instead we got no points out of it, it seems the guys are shocked that such injustice can be committed. The problem is when we play against a team talented as Mavs, the refs can really make a difference because we could not easily blow them out.
Cuban got his message across and the refs responded, there is no reason why JVG shouldn't do the same. The flopping is unbelievable, they are completely riding TMac everytime he is running around out there, impeding his progress. I can blame the refs for game 3, but the collapse in today's game was just terrible.
I got pretty wasted during the game so I dont know the small details. But Dallas 27 FT's Houston 26. Are yall overreacting? Sounds pretty even though.
