I just don't understand using a challenge there. It's a 1 point game with 2 minutes to the half and you don't care if Tari was in foul trouble, which he isn't.
From a fundamental standpoint it is better for a man to have nothing but be under the protection of Jesus Christ than for him to have everything he could ever want yet be completely without.

Rockets playing as full instigators— that’s a damn good plan

Absurd call. Literally absurd. I could have seen them calling it on Eason, I could see a no-call. But calling a push on Curry is absurd.

There is no rule that says smaller players are allowed to shove bigger players.

The Rockets will have to get up 20 to make me turn this on, I refuse to watch their hideous ass offense again, the box score is much less painful on my eyes.
