Some are in for a rude awakening if they think Rockets won't get horrible touch calls for perimeter shots on top of ignored contact for our bigs. This double standard has existed since the NBA changed the rules back in what 1999?

Take away horrible foul calls and Harden is so overrated.

The Rockets will get their share of calls. But they just aren't as big and physical as Memphis, and unless they change for the playoffs, they don't pay as much attention to defense as the Grizzlies. Which means they won't be as disruptive, and the Spurs' offense should look a lot better.

Harden overrated? Not so much. He's quick as hell, and he's strong - and he's ALWAYS in attack mode. He gets the corner on defenders, and they wind up reaching. And reaching will draw whistles most of the time. Yeah, he's good at exaggerating contact and sucking out foul calls. But that's a skill, too. Manu used to be brilliant at it, and we all cheered for him when he did it. I don't like him worth a damn, but I'm still going to give credit where it's due.

It's different with hardon he would rather get to the line than just score. How many times did Manu hit the floor and atleast earn his. hardon is almost single handedly ruining the nba. That bs call on Aldridge to give conley 3 fts never happens if hardon didn't start that shit.
