Rockets take shots at refs, Barkley after Game 3

You throw a ball at someone you get a technical....regardless of how you got there. And the front office dogging Barkley is ridiculous too. They blew a 17 point lead and almost lost if not for a clutch shot by harden to escape with the win with curry on the bench. The truth of the rockets is still closer to Barkley's take than the world beaters the rockets want to make themselves.out to be.

so they get the foul at the end of the game........then what? they still won the game it played no part in the outcome of the game. yes they got tangled up but it looked worse than it actually was.

I think the rockets are more concerned about the safety of their players than the foul call on these two incidents.

I agree ... Green's throw-down had not impact on the outcome of the game. Then why do it ? Frustration ?

If the Warriors actually do lose a series (especially if last game isn't close) -- it will turn ugly.

I'm sure it was frustration....rockets were probably giving him the business on that turnover at the end too. I know I would've been. Get in his head, anything to throw him.off his game.

Could you imagine the outrage (suspensions, etc.) if someone did that to Curry ? (imagine if Dwight did that)

IMO.it looks.worse than it was. Foul yes but I'm not outraged like rockets coach. Mma isn't calling for tips on the takedown....

And despite all that Rockets got away with a push off on the final shot to win the game. So it all balances out.

Harden will be perfectly happy to lose the series 4-1, won't bother him a bit.
