    I thought the foul at the end was wrong. But I went back through it a couple of times and it looks like they got it right. But right, s__ty game by both sides. Rivers has a right to be livid.

    Nate- didn't you say the NBA wanted the Rockets to beat us? Well, all our wins were close games. They clearly could've fixed thos games against us but didn't.

    Eric, I legitimately think we weren't supposed to win game 6. The refs made two extremely questionable calls that should have sent the game back to Houston. Unfortunately for them, Dame decided the series needed to end.

    I completely agree with this assessment. We aren't supposed to be here right now. So let's screw with the NBA some more!

    I always thought it was big market teams back in the early 2000's and stars like KD and co werent supposed to go to small markets.

    I think its ironic Doc said that if the out of bounds went their way they would've got the ball up two with under 24 seconds left and surely won.

    That was the exact scenario they already had when CP3 turned it over!

    If they'd got the ball 3 more times I think they would've found a way to lose that game. The call looks like it was blown to me but it wasn't 100% clear, and the rule adds another possible explanation. How many years have we seen reviews in the NFL where close calls don't go the correct way. This stuff happens all the time and the best way to avoid it is not play like crap.

    I can't believe some of you seriously think Paul Allen would let the league screw him out of playoff wins? Remember who the commissioners boss is, its the owners. Each owner is competitive as hell and spends hundereds of millions to have a team as their play toy. Zero chance any of them would let some figurehead orchestrate a plan to lose them a series they legitimately won.

    People. Your hand is only part of the ball when you are holding or dribbling it. If you are shooting it, your hand is NOT part of the ball. Reggie was going toward the bucket and he gathered (Habitual shooting motion) the ball and was slapped on the hand. He should have been shooting 2 free throws.
