this game isn't over

Not over yet, Dallas up 110-108, 6.4 seconds left, currently reviewing a ball knocked out of bounds.
Simplebay is down to trolling a rockets thread PRAYING the lakers make the playoffs. Same dude that was running his mouth about how easy it would be for the lakers to win this year. Now he has to hope teams choke just so his pathetic barely .500 team makes it in.
Ruled Dallas' ball, tough overturn (originally ruled Houston ball), timeout...gotta foul.
Thanks. It's frustrating to follow on gamecast.
This is a really bad loss if we lose.
who is Beverly, and why did he just do that. holy crap. was about to be a turnover.
Game of inches has not gone the Rockets' way tonight...Lin's 3 that was just after the halftime buzzer, that last play where Dallas nearly went over-and-back...ugh.
Not sure how they overturned that. Wasn't clear evidence and that was obviously if the refs have to talk about it for another minute after watching the replay.
Also what did Beverly do wrong there ? Did he even touch him ?

Ramon sessions clone, the 5th best pg in the nba
Go get Golden State and Phoenix...frustrating, but can't stew on it.
didn't we just mutilate this team at home by 30+ .... wtf?
Sheesh this team is inconsistent.
Dallas beats Houston in a sporting event. What else is new?

pretty sure it was the right call. even Bullard said so. Obviously Worrell would never say anything against the rockets, being the worst announcer in the NBA.
the refs looked like they overturned it based on the fact that the ball changed direction in the same direction Harden's hand was moving. not Marion's, which was swiping the other way. looked like the change of direction came from Marion hitting it off Harden's fingertips.

Yeah, I figured that they might just decide it was simultaneous and have a jumpball at midcourt...oh, well. It's done.
Plenty of questionable and borderline calls tonight. A few too many were in the Mav's favor.
Worst call of the night is the "foul" called on Beverly during the fast break where Robinson dunked it.

Oh you mean how he did nothing and Collison flailed and got the call?
not sure in what world body bumping someone is not a foul. Beverly even threw up his hands as he knew it was a foul.
Won't matter if we beat Golden State. But we probably won't. We might one game above 500 after this road trip. These crappy teams will lay down for the Lakers at home. But they'll play us tough as nails and win.
the rockets have a mere 3 game road trip. against teams that are combined 82-100.
after that they have a 7 game home stand. they have one of the easiest remaining schedules in the NBA. if they don't make the playoffs it would be an epic collapse. they will.

I'm mad about this loss, but come on yall. We played Dallas IN Dallas. This is how it ALWAYS is. It doesn't matter how bad the Rockets or Mavs are, this game is always close.
we shoot that many FTs every game regardless. Dirk should've been kicked out of that game for the beating he was giving Chandler.
Houston is 6th in the league in free throw attempts while Dallas is 19th. Harden is #1 in the league in free throw attempts per game. Our style of offense makes it inevitable and it is no secret that Harden is one of the best in the league at driving to the basket and drawing a foul.
I think the context of the argument wasn't about foul discrepancy, but more about the fact that the refs ruled in favor of the Mavs more frequently in regards to the reviewable calls.
In the end, the refs did not lose this game for the Rockets. We were fighting from behind all night long. Just need to regroup and finish this road trip strong.
On a side note, I was impressed with the play of Thomas Robinson last night in the 4th quarter. He didn't have a good stat line but he made some key plays to keep the Rockets in the game.

Breakdown on Houston's defensive woes, if interested.
They're ranked 23rd in defensive efficiency for the season and 27th since Feb. 1, via NBA.com's media stats page. Since that date, they've allowed opponents to score an average of 109.3 points per 100 possessions. Only Portland, Sacramento and Charlotte have been worse.

Losing Douglas, Patterson, and Morris and replacing them with rookies decimated any defensive progress we had made
Not surprising at all...the Rox routinely surrender 60+ points in a half, usually the first half. That is not going to get much better this season, I'm afraid. It was good to see Robinson make some plays on the defensive end...hope he can keep it up.

This is exactly what I meant. Thanks for clarifying.
