The Beard vs Uncle Drew: Rockets @ Celtics on TNT Game Thread

[Saysumthinfunnymike]

So the "refs" blew a 26-point lead too?

Rockets ain't never gon be shyt in the offs. Hakeem retired.

Breh you watch the history of the NBA......calls like that have always happen in boston.

That is why I have always said that this league is the lakers and celtics and everyone else is on borrowed time.

This. When the veteran refs are on the job, those calls will always go a certain way.

This Rockets team without CP3 is pretty much last year's team with less depth. Teams have that team figured out and this year's team without CP3 is an ever more predictable version of that. The Rockets need CP3 because CP3 makes the Rockets offense less predictable because it has two ball handlers in CP3 and Harden. Plus, I think CP3 is a much better decision maker than Harden. He is never in a hurry even when you pressure him but Harden has proved he can crumble when you focus all of your defense on him as the second half of this game proved.

Houston is a 1 trick pony live by the 3 die by it. Thats why they wont make it out the 2nd round again

Smart fouled Harden before the offensive fouls.You can't just hold an offensive players arm.

Yeah the first one was blatant.. he held his arm and when harden pulled it away he flopped. Harden was clearly frustrated on the second one though

fukk that flopping fakkit serves him right

 

[LV Koopa]

How many FG's did the Rockets even have during the C's 2nd half run? They were completely shut down outside of the complete trash calls sending Harden and Gordon to the line. fukk outta here.

Not exactly. EJ and Harden were getting hacked but with 2 refs a lot of calls were missed. It's just bad to be letting contact go and then ending the game on 2 offensive fouls calls.

Either way I was entertained

cliff had the face

No but they single-handedly turned a 3 or 4 point Rocket win into a one-point loss. Literally deciding the game with obvious bad calls. Unacceptable.

Yall nikkas on some other shyt with ya hate

You'd never talk like this about your cac boss

 

[Mike_Pipeson]

Aye, Boston got a chance this season if they can keep the needed number of refs off the floor.

That being said Weber and Black need to get sent back to the G league. Nikkas missing open opportunities everyone they on the court. Weber got speed but no ability to score

@ nikkas defending this hoe ass nikka harden by getting done in by his goto move...FLOPPING
