    Not sure if you are really watching closely, but they have. Clippers broadcasting guys know whats up. I'm very close friends with their producer and director. I can send them a link of this thread and you guys can chat with them as well. Let @THE HCP know.

    Hey, I don't mind the Ref's Ass Cam View (RACV). It's kind of fun. One thing I am curious about; it used to be that you showed replays of a lot of the questionable calls. Now, it seems like you just show a highlight of a play that happened a couple of possessions back. Is that a choice you guys made, or the heavy hand of the league? Not having a second look at those plays is more irritating to me than the RACV.

    You can't do that against Harden, there would be too many replays to show

    They showed his feet on that tripple step back that Harden drained late against RoCo a couple of times... which was probably the most egregious non-call of the game, they always show all of the reviewed calls and a bunch that don't get reviewed. I'm with you, I want to see every questionable call again but there are a lot of those.

    They showed a shit ton of the little contact fouls Harden drew last night inside and made sure we saw that there was actually contact... then Lamar talked about how Harden is just great at creating that and he's right. The refs are just looking for it more with Harden so unless another player can be really good at that and get the same kind of insane usage as Harden, no one will ever get his free throw attempts. It's a skill that has to have repetition and reputation to really be the kind of weapon he has made it.

    DJJ picked his pocket twice though. Blocked him once and forced him into Nurk a number of times which made him pass out. Unfortunately they were good passes and their guys made some shots as well.

    Shit, that's not my pool, I just googled it. Just didn't understand why this kid posted a pool pic, thought it was a game. We can compare cars though.
