But you know what, watch the frame by frame breakdown come out and it actually be no good. That would be the low point of my Magic career, after all the yelling, throwing, and angry posts I have made on RealGM so far. We'd all just feel like sh**.
11/18/2017 - I have officially disowned Nikola Vucevic and branded him a loser.
- Skal Labissiere was my guy in 2016 pre-trade. Whoops, but I still believe.
- Malik Monk was my guy in 2017. Whoops(?)
- Mo Bamba was my guy in 2018. TBD.

They showed it frame by frame on the Houston broadcast many times, it was good. The Houston announcers said it was good, the Houston post-game people in the studio said it was good.. there's absolutely no question that it was good. The only people who thought otherwise, was the refs..

Aaaaaaarrgggggghhhhh!
Seconded, please someone get a picture of this. I don't even care if it shows that we're all wrong, I just want to know once and for all.

Also i expected the call to go to home team's favor just for being so damn close... These refs really sucked ass both ways, benched Yao/Dwight the whole game and kept stopping the game. Tough luck Magic.
yap, it was a horribly officiating for both sides during the game. I think that offensive foul on Yao will be in my memory for a long time, I couldn't believe my eyes when they called him for that. And then that last second... man, they had the fricking replay frame by frame... unbelievable. In the last years this league is becoming dominated by discussions about the refs, if the league executives don't understand why they should watch these last 48 minutes of basketball to see if that opens their eyes. I've seen amateur refs in domestic euro leagues doing better jobs on controlling the game.

First of all coming from a rocket fan I thought the basket should have counted, but then again the refs where horrible both ways so I am not really surprised that they got it wrong.
I think the explianation they gave was that when Foyle touched the ball it was under .3 sec, which if yall remember after the derek fisher shot in 04(?) that any touches after .3 seconds wasn't going to count.
I hope the NBA takes a look at this game, however not only the last shot but the entire game and the way it was officiated.
I am actually surprised on how the Rockets have played these couple of games, including 2 wins and fighting the Celtics to the last minute last game, all without Tracy Mcgrady.
Anyways I wish yall good luck for the season and I really hope DHoward continue to tear it up, he has been very entertaining to watch this season.

SVG taking it easy. I'm pretty mad about that. If this franchise doesn't step up and make a point that they're not going to stand for it, the league will continue to walk all over them.
