Refs arent making the rockets miss their shots

Completely understood but the refs completely took them out of their game. That take a three while being fouled? Doesn't count. Get hammered when driving to the lane? No foul.

Hard to not lose your rhythm when the game is being officiated like that.

Refs really screwed Houston here. Those 2 missed calls on Harden should’ve been 6 FT - the momentum shift really hurt Houston’s rhythm

Random question - but does anyone know the name of the track that was playing on the Bleacher Report mobile app commercial? It went something like "All my life, been running all my life....."

Outscored 21-0 from 3 in 3rd quarter. Comon! Cant afford turnovers like that when down. Gotta play perfect.

Rockets have been working the refs for years
Not the most important game of the season, and most important game to a franchise in 23 years. But keep trying the fake equivalency argument on asinine else. Blocked, foh.

Why’d the rox abandon the early PnR?

Rockets missed 6+ uncontested or mostly uncontested 3’s but most posters ignore that.

Warriors are lucky Rockets went cold save for Gordon’s mini run at the end of the 3rd.

Don't get me wrong, Rockets going cold is the main reason why they are in this mess. But you have to be kidding me if you can't see that they had a ton of blown calls in GS's favor in a 6 minute span until GS got hot again that also attributed to this.

If this were Greece, Turkey, or Serbia, and that game was called in such a fashion against the home team in the playoffs, these refs were going to leave the arena in an ambulance. The local police would have probably joined in, BTW; Just saying...

As somebody who played organized hoops, it's impossible to be mentally there when the refs are jobbing you on almost every possession. You drive, they nail you. You score, they take it away. They nail you in your shooting motion, they don't call it. EVERY player's mind will default to jacking up long shots with such CONSISTENT reffing. BTW, the team that's getting the calls knows the fix is in too. They'll foul more. They'll go WWE screening on O. Look at their confidence sky-rocket shortly.

I'm embarrassed for the NBA. I have not seen this kind of ref craptitude since the Kings and Lakers back in the day. And back in the day, they were freakin' subtle about it, pros, if you will. This is blatant.

Moving screens on the other end so obvious Steve Wonder can call them. On 2 GS 3s in a 2 min span.

If Houston pulls this one out, kudos. Don't like them, don't like their players, or coach, or how they play, or how much their 2 stars flop. But nobody deserves this kind of crap on their home floor in a game 7. Nobody.

I'm done watching such a freakin' travesty. And I'm a ball fan who loves an ugly game, but this is just on another level.

The word "rigged" gives the refs too much credit, that would imply this was intentional. They are just blind tbh. NBA refs just flat out suck. Consistently suck.

MDA lives and dies by the 3 and a short rotation. He has awful luck in WCF though. Diaw/Amare suspension/Tim Donaghy with the Suns vs SA. Paul injury this series

Whether it's a badly reffed game or coincidence or not, the tin foil hat brigade will be using this as a poster child along with the kings v lakers game
They have definitely affected the game.
