That was a bull**** call on Dmo. Green was practically hugging him
Green is a buffoon but that was a foul. Dumb play. Green definitely is in his head.

Like I said in game 1. The refs are not allowing those games to be competitive. The rockets can't breathe without a foul being called

Dude. Harden is playing like hot garbage and he's got about 10 points from the line in the first freaking half. You can't convince anyone that the refs are conspiring against you.

Don't look at the base stats. That's what sheep do. Look at the situation.

so because harden is actually getting hit, I can't mention how there have been absolute bull**** fouls called? You sound like a mavs fan

Harden has gotten some calls that even he doesn't normally get. The rockets could be winning by double digits if they weren't so shell shocked.

Foul calls are 17 to 14 and the Rockets have actually shot five more free throws than the Warriors.

Every foul call harden has got has been legit except for the one on iggy where he got all ball

The discouraging part in all of this is that they are without Curry and I think this is the best we can play. Still down 8 at the half

Shut up sheep. The refs are clearly dominating the Rockets.

look at the situation of these foul calls. The offensive fouls on smith and Howard, the garbage fouls on harden and Beverley, are changing the flow of the game. Green just ran Beverley over to end the half and nothing called. They have to be consistent for both teams. Looking at foul stats means nothing without context. Again, typical mavs fan argument like its 2006

Only the self absorbed rockets fans would suck so bad at identifying other NBA board posters And you're the one that sounds like a tinfoil hat Mavs fan from 06 with your ref whining.

Though they got legit screwed. Still not my team in the least.

Blaming the refs for the first half is silly. They're calling the game fine. The problem, just as it has been all season, is our guys don't understand that half of the game involves playing defense, which is something we just choose to ignore

I'm not watching the game as I don't have a rooting interest. But if you're having to resort to "but look at the situation" in the first half to explain why the refs are killing you, odds are the officiating is pretty even. There are probably a bunch of Warriors fans complaining right now about how the refs are keeping the Rockets in the game by sending them to the free throw line 21 times in one half.

I thought they would start to play defense in the playoffs. Especially James, but I guess I was giving them too much credit.

James Harden is getting shat on (deservedly so) by the TNT halftime crew. It's like everyone can see how terrible our coaching and team is except for our front office

And I think that's one of the first times I've ever agreed with everything chuck, Kenny, and shaq said.

You can get hot on O anytime. You can't get hot on D after not giving a damn the last couple years.

If our coach isn't JVG or Thibs next year it's gonna be all the same ****.

Just maybe with durant added into the mix

Well we've seen that James can at least try on defense at times. I thought we'd get that in the playoffs

Howard should make less than Bogut. What a mental midget.

Let's agree ahead of time that any amount of terrible calls from the officials are not going to change the outcome of this series.

The officiating in this game has been much better than in game 1 where the Warriors got away with quite a few non-calls. However, there was at least one bad foul call on Harden that forced him to sit. Considering he's our only consistent form of offense that type of call is going to have a bigger effect. Overall not too many complaints on the officiating here though. They're certainly not killing us. Our lack of defense, hustle, and heart are killing us.

Dwight needs to go. Just sit him the rest of the series and see what Capela can do with more minutes in the spotlight of the playoffs

It's hard for me to say that because I've always loved Dwight for his personality and when he can take over games. How can a guy who got 36 points and 26 rebounds against the clippers not do **** the past couple months. It takes dominating effort and talent to get 36 and 26 in a game. He has it in him. I just don't know why he hasn't brought it.

I wonder if he already has a wink-wink arrangement with another team for his next contract.

If you were widely considered the best center in the game and an elite defender how long would it take for you to get fed up with the terrible defensive effort the Rockets display night in and night out? I think it's apathy. Hell I'm just a casual fan who, admittedly, doesn't even catch most of their regular season games, and it's enough to make me exasperated.

We won the 3rd quarter. That's something.

Arizas 3 was halfway down. Dang. Then Harden plays ball hog and warriors stretch the lead. Go figure.

Again, I don't think there has been a player that I hated on another team and loved on the Rockets more than JET. Dude just continues to play.
