I guess they figured they would get at least one call....

I already said in the rockets board, the only 2 times of the season that i have seen the ref's favoring us instead of our rivals was our first game against the bobcats and today, also i saw some more games of the cats like vs the pistons and i feel bad for this team and the coach sam vincent.

i hope the bobcats get the respect from the ref's they deserve next season and your bench players are healthy finally (may, morrison) so you can make the playoffs.

A good job on defense by both teams.... if only Ray hadn't been so, so bad from the field.

At least it was an entertaining game and we didn't disgrace ourseleves.

Thanks Phoenix Rockets - we do seem to get shafted a lot. Of course we complain a lot too, which does us no favors.

I thought the refs sucked for both teams tonight - just us more so down the stretch against us when we needed some calls to go our way.

the following is an exact transcript of a conversation that took place at halftime.

joe forte: "hello"
david stern: "is this joe?"
jf: "speaking"
ds: "joe, its david"
jf: [in a giddy voice]"mr stern, its so great to hear from you."
ds: "shut the **** up and listen. do you remember what happens on sunday?"
jf: "of course i do, it's selection sunday. i love the tournament. remember two years ago when i won the nba referee pool? oh, and remember when i won 5 grand on that butler game? i told you they were good"
ds: "i thought i told you to shut the **** up?"
jf: "sorry sir"
ds: "sunday is the lakers rockets game on abc. is that ringing any bells yet?"
jf: "oh, right"
ds: "and what did i tell you this morning?"
jf: "i remember"
ds: "say it"
jf: "that nobody in america cares about some crap team from north carolina ending the streak. they want to see kobe do it. that's why kobe is a superstar and why i am a poor excuse for a man. and that the soon to be lakers celtics finals will restore the glory days of the nba and maybe then everyone will stop kissing football's ass and we can expand to europe. guys like roger felton dont pay my salary."
ds: "thats right. and dont you forget it. now get your ass out there and call some fouls"
jf: "yes sir. oh, david, did you get that fruit basket i sent to your house?"
ds: [hangs up]

but seriously, that was some really bad officiating in that game. what is up with us and the rockets?

oh well, it wouldnt have mattered. felton, carroll and nazr were awful.

toodles the block magnet vs mutombo............ not a good sign.

wow. i cut the game off with 5 minutes left. i just saw okafor get abused by mutombo. damn that smarts.

okafor, just stick to that face up game. i like when he faces up. work on that jumper big fella.

the balls didnt bounce our way, they got all the close calls in the 2nd half. Way to many turnovers and 2nd chance shot opportunities for them. Nothing you can do about T-Mac but when u give them that many chances a player as good as him is gonna get hot like he did, and get his teammates involved.

Felton's shot was way off tonite.
