Nearly every talking head in the media is saying that the game won't be replayed either and the Rockets are being crybabies, so I guess they are all Pop's acolytes too.
I think a replay is remote at best. First, they were up big at the time and you can’t definitely state that the bucket cost them the game. Now if it happened at the end of regulation that would be a different story. I just can’t see it happening and there is no way to be fair to both parties because you can’t wipe away the Spurs comeback. That would be more egregious then the Harden missed call.
I agree that any sort of replay, or changing the outcome by the NBA would open up a huge can of worms for the league. Every missed call would come into question. Sh!t happens, and the pu$$y Rockets just need to move on. They had every opportunity to still win the game after that.
As someone else said, let's replay the end of .04. Better yet, award the Spurs the win, pull all the players back out of retirement and let's replay the remainder of that post season.
Pringles is an ass, and just can't get over Pop's ownage of him the last 16 years.
There's not a lot of people watching. You have a ty baby franchise in Houston that's looking for a bailout, and the rest of the league wondering if Silver's going to be a pussy about it or not. The league comes out and says too bad, but game is over, it won't even be a thought outside of Houston sports radio by the end of the weekend.Good for you!It isn't that simple, no matter who says it is, and the league would not be taking this long if there were zero possibility of them taking some action.
The league has a situation on their hands, and a lot of eyes watching. The worst possible thing would be for this game to cost the Rockets home court against somebody in the playoffs (and then lose 4-3), or for the Spurs to miss the playoffs for the first time in forever because of a reversal. That's one more reason why I think they'll look for a solution where they just don't have to make a decision until nearly the last minute. They could schedule that replay for the end of the season, and then abandon it if they get the opportunity. It's a politician's solution, and Silver is a politician.
This. They will change the rule but have the game result stand.
I don't see it as being any different than blowing a goaltending call, in effect.
There were 7 minutes left in the quarter when this happened. Are we supposed to disregard everything that happened in the remaining 17 minutes of the game because of this one blown call? This is ing stupid
I think those y Rockets are just protesting this for publicity, they feel they’ve been screwed by the refs a lot of times so they’re trying to make a statement to the league
Oh yeah, definitely. That poor Harden guy gets no calls.
yeah the irony of them complaining about the refs is hilarious but I can guarantee because of this protest the rockets will get even more favorable calls now
It won't be replayed... It's a blown call... There's like 10 every game
I would LOVE to replay it and blow them out... Or imagine I'd Harden gets a season ending injury during the replayed game...lol
Yeah he needs one of those director chairs parked out at the free-throw line with his name on the back of it.
Wasn't there a player that ended up on both teams' box scores because there was a replay and he was traded from one team to the other in between?
You should be called for a foul for even thinking of defending him. How dare those ref keeps swallowing the whistle.
ever visit clutchfans? I've never seen a fanbase whine about the refs as much as rocketfan
they're even worse than we are
it's hilarious. When you have Harden on the team you should be the last ones to whine about refereeing. He averages more FTAs than some teams
It's Houston fan in general. As a Texans fan I can tell you Houston fans from Houston whine about officiating more than any fan base in existence.
In the Nets/Philly re-play, there were TWO players in the box score for both teams after a mid season trade. I believe that one of them lost points on his initial team point score when time was wiped off of the clock.
That one play didn't change the outcome either way, replaying it would be so stupid, SO I guess from now whenever there is a bad call they will have to replay the game again? I guess we will never even make it out of regular season that way lol
