These officials are getting paid, for real.

But it doesn't matter.

Wow these bogut moving screens are never called, even van gundy days it's bsss. And they call houston consistently for the exact same thing literally the next trip down the court.

I'm sorry but the refs are not the reason why the 73-9 Warriors are up 26 in the first half against this horrible Rocket team.

How in the hell is that an offensive foul?

That is never called as an offensive foul.

No one is saying that. Do you even read?

I'm no Rocket apologist, but there have been some awful calls like that Harden offensive foul just now. Harden commits tons of offensive fouls that are never called and to call that last one was ridiculous.

Having said that, the refs are not to blame here. This isn't remotely competitive.

Agreed on all counts.

Yup. I get the league wants the Warriors to have success because they're "the best show in sports" right now, but it would be nice if the officiating was consistent. They're good enough they don't need biased officiating tilting it in their favor.

I think the thing that is most disappointing is the mental weakness the Rockets show. It's like once they see a few layups missed, they just say "eh, not our day" and mail it in.

Seriously. Call it fair and GS still probably wins by 20, but at least it's not a ref-aided 40 point bludgeoning. They need no help, NBA, trust me.

Everyone is right that you cannot blame officiating for the poor performance from the Rockets. But it's so tough to play the Warriors when you're not allowed to get playoff physical with them.

The Capella play is why this Rockets team is 41-41. They cannot make the right play. They get rebounds, stops, and can't make the right play.

I cant hear. Are they having technical difficulties or did they decide to start the post game show early to keep viewers watching?

what i would give for the rockets to ever have the refs in their pocket for a game like the warriors had there. Would've made the game more competitive

I hear you and it is unfortunate. The logo has to protect their product though and they know the Warriors are a hot commodity right now. Most wins in league history. Curry shooting lights out. Kerr at the helm. We weren't anywhere near being competitive in that game and Curry sat out for a ton of it, so I don't think the officiating played a big enough role to keep us "out of it" per se. However, it is pretty disheartening to see Harden play 32 minutes, put up 20 shots, and not once go to the free throw line.

On another note: JB Bickerstaff is WAY in over his head and water is wet.

3 more games till its all finally over.

So glad we traded a 1st round draft pick for 4 useless games.

Assuming the Warriors use the same starting lineup on Monday I would start D-Mo in place of Brewer. Give him a shot at guarding Draymond and let that bad blood continue to flow. I know it was garbage minutes at the time but he came in and threw him off his game. There are parts of his game that I hate, but you can't question the fact that he doesn't give a **** who you are. He is not backing down.

Curry questionable for game 2.

Sweep the leg, Howard.

Curry is not hurt. They are just trying to create drama in a series where there is none.

The fact that JB thought it was a good idea to insert Brewer into the starting lineup says all you need to know about his future as the Rockets head coach
