I'm completely confused as to how that in any way could be flagrant. That was almost textbook on how to give a foul cleanly to stop a fast break. This is like the NFL with never knowing what a catch is anymore

Embarrassing they called that a flagrant. Surprised Durant didn't even just tell them not to bother looking...wasn't close to a flagstaff.
I'm hoping that flagarant was just opening night jitters

From the refs? Because that shouldn't have been a flagrant.
That's what I meant. It was so bad it had to be overcompensating for opening night.3rdGen2015 said:WES2006AG said:

I guess a Nene is going to play tomorrow night.
Gonna take us a couple of months to get our defensive rotations down, but it's still frustrating.
It's a long season fellas. Gotta figure out some combinations on the floor to get some stops. Can't just rely on outscoring the warriors.
Man, 4 really bad possessions there. Absolutely brutal to not take advantage of our stops.
Both these teams are very deep.
How in Gods name is that a foul on Tucker? ***** NBA
Rockets win.
Awesome game. Rockets are gonna be a force.
1-0
That's a big 1-0, too. Beat the team everyone says is unbeatable.3rdGen2015 said:

What a ****ing game.

Wow
That was a damn good comeback, down 17 in the 4th. It helped that they didn't have Dray but the defense stepped up big. That down the stretch lineup of Harden-Gordon-Anderson-Tucker-Capela was clutch.
First Blood
Parlayed the rockets with the over. Damn good start to the season.
Holy ****, what a win!

How long do you want to ignore this user?
I fell asleep sometime in the 3rd. This was a nice surprise to wake up to.
Waking up to a Rockets win.
I fell asleep on the couch before it started
Statement W to open the season. I didn't get to watch the game.
From the stat line, noticed KD had 8TOs and CP3 only had 4pts.

LRM and Tucker were great at forcing those TOs on Durant
And Coach Pringles said Chris Paul was essentially playing on one leg tonight with a knee problem. Hopefully that's not a serious thing.
PJ Tucker with 20 points on 4 of 6 from 3 is a great way for him to start the season.Hopefully it is nothing serious with CP3.
As much as I hated losing Lou in the trade our bench looks damn good. Maybe we can get him back on the cheap in the offseason.
Sure feels a helluva lot better than opening w/ a loss to the Lakers. We gave up 121 points to a team that is obviously pretty lethal offensively, but those last couple minutes had some nice defense being played. Getting Tucker and Mbah Moute is going to be huge for that aspect of the game.
Also, what a really nice way to give a middle finger for having to be delayed for such a long time due to the ring ceremony. Game tonight should start on time at 9pm against the Kings on ATT SportsNet

The Warriors fans and all their excuses is hilarious.
"Iggy was hurt!" "This wouldn't have happened if Draymond didn't leave the game!"
"Kerr assigned a rookie to guard Harden. That should tell you how meaningless we thought this game was"
A bunch of whiny babies that will be fishing for a new team to cheer for in the next few years

We'd be saying the same thing if we were in that position. Having said that we can easily say we got the win after not playing well for 3 quarters on the road against the defending champs on the road with CP hurting in the 4th quarter. Still don't believe this current roster and beat a healthy Warriors team in 7 games.TrillOBrien said:

I agree that we would be saying the same thing. However, I try to take the opportunity to talk **** about Warriors fans any chance I get. Bunch of bandwagon entitled fans that will forget the Warriors even exist when this run is over.Nino Brown said:We'd be saying the same thing if we were in that position.

Not to mention Nick Young channeled his inner Ray Allen and was draining 3's to begin the game. No chance that happens consistently.TrillOBrien said:
