I hate doing this. But two blatant fouls on Harden 3s in the first half not called. Blown goaltending call on Capela. The blatant moving screen for a Curry. The what should have been a 4 point play called on the floor (Harden scored a 2 anyway at least). That’s 13 points. It doesn’t even count things like Klay making a 3 in transition due to a no call. Brutal officiating.
Just 4 more 3's and we would have won. If idiot Morey would have spent money on some other player than Brock Osweiler "Ryan Anderson" That one player could have made a difference.
The first half of series the defense was lackluster, while the rest on team could not provide that extra firepower behind James Harden.
Losing cp3 was main reason but that is very hard to fix next year though. He has done everything he can to save himself during regular season and early rounds but still failed. Of course all problem will be solved if we can get lebron.
Harden did not quit. The man did everything possible. When the bodies swarm around him like gnats over a fruit there is not much he can do when no one else can score. The guys played their hearts out. I also guarantee no other team will get this close. If there is anyone to blame it is Morey not really making the adjustments needed. There was clear evidence that nene had already declined. Ryan anderson became dead weight and we made it known to the world. Our bench this playoffs has been horrific. Only Ariza Paul Tucker and Harden and Clint should stay. Everyone is expendable after this. No one could hit their free throws. We lost the series ourselves...
u gotta be incredibly stupid if u think Harden “quit” in this game...some posters on here are just idiots, it’s amazing
The main reason for this loss is the Rockets going a ridiculous 7 for 44 from the three point line and no coach or player having the sense to adjust. Record for the most missed 3 pointers (37) Lowest 3 point percentage (16%) Ariza, Harden and Gordon missing at least nine 3 pointers
Im sorry but if Morey signs Cp3 and Cap to the max in the off-season without any major roster overhaul, we're ****ed next year.
actually you can shoot like that, and if: capela "goaltend" = 2 pts harden threes = 5-6 pts harden 4-pt play = 2 pts bell moving screen = 3 pts =12-13 points are called correctly you still win. amazing to me how stupid some of you people are and will try to justify it when you are robbed from right in front of your faces
All reasons played a factor but the biggest was CP3’s injury. We do need to move Ryno ASAP but this one hurts like hell bc we were the best team in the league by far. Bad luck mainly but if I was a Tony Soprano like figure tonights officiating crew would def be looking over ther shoulders for the rest of their lives. Also since KD pulled such a b**** move, it would only have been right that Tarik Black played a role in leveling the field if u know what i mean. **** class when honor doesnt exist.
