2017-18 NBA (Playoffs): A gasping, wheezing thread begs message board poster arguing how Jordan never lost a Finals to just let it die in peace (1 Viewer)

[SHIZNITTTT]

How in the world can Houston not make a 3rd quarter adjustment?  They have played this team 7 times in a row and still getting outscored 234567890 to 20.  wow.

 

[Capella]

Maybe Ariza could shoot some more 3s. 

 

[Britney Spears]

All-star Team 3rd quarter run. 

 

[Prince Myshkin]

There are like 2-3 questionable calls, settle down. 

I have no rooting interest in this game whatsoever. There were 2-3 questionable calls in 2 trips there. Harden was fouled on 3 3’s (one of which he made) and got 0 ft’s from it. Gordon got killed in the lane. Tucker got mugged. Two obvious moving screens leading to GS 3’s. And that’s just off the top of my head

Worst I’ve seen since Donaghy

 

[dickey moe]

I literally blinked and the Warriors scored like 20 pts.

 

[ghostguy123]

Missed 23 straight 3s??  And curry hits one that bounces 10 feet in the air.  Crazy

23?????????????????????????????  lord.  Law of averages says 24th goes in

 

[ShamrockPride]

Why the crying over the refs? Dubs just nailed like 4 3's in 60 seconds. Respect the offense. That's why GS just flipped the lead instantly.

 

[Dedfin]

I think that was my uncle trying to cover Curry.

lol rockets are 6-37 from 3s. That’s why they’re losing. 

 

[PlasmaDogPlasma]

15 point 3rd quarter at home. Come on.

 

[Juxtatarot]

23?????????????????????????????  lord.  Law of averages says 24th goes in

No it doesn’t.

 

[ghostguy123]

Curry went video game there for a few minutes.

 

[msudaisy26]

lol rockets are 6-37 from 3s. That’s why they’re losing. 

Don't come in here brainwashing us. It is the refs and the scripted WWE, I mean NBA.

 

[ghostguy123]

No it doesn’t.

 

[RUSF18]

lol rockets are 6-37 from 3s. That’s why they’re losing. 

They should be 7-35 with 7 additional FTs pending.

 

[ShamrockPride]

Rockets miss like 40 three pointers in a row

"f###ing refs man"

 

[Dez]

Well you were so good on your other game 7 prediction. This looks nothing like the last game despite the score being close to the same.

Update after the 3rd ?

 

[Prince Myshkin]

lol rockets are 6-37 from 3s. That’s why they’re losing. 

What was the score before all of that crap happened? You seriously don’t think those calls had an impact???

I will readily admit that Houston needed something besides jacking up 3s the entire quarter, but to act like the whistles didn’t go all GS way leading up to and during that run is a little disingenuous 

 

[msudaisy26]

Update after the 3rd ?

Still not even close to game 6.

 

[Britney Spears]

If I was a rockets fan, I would be pissed about Zara basically being a 6th defender on corner 3s though. 

 

[Jayded]

Man GS can’t miss. Houston couldn’t let that third quarter happen again. GS plays in front so freaking well with confidence. 

 

[ghostguy123]

Bout time to widen the court a couple feet.  Sick of seeing guys have to tightrope corner shots.

 

[Capella]

They should be 7-35 with 7 additional FTs pending.

They’d still be losing. 

 

[ghostguy123]

So missed 24 threes in a row, down 10.  Gotta feel lucky to only be down 10.  Shoudl be down 30.  Probably will be down 30 soon

 

[Britney Spears]

Guys, we just saw good defensive plays from both Curry & Harden in a span of about 10 seconds. 

 

[dickey moe]

LMAO @ that female Rockets fan shrieking, "Noooooooooooooooooooo!!"

 

[Capella]

6 for 39 now 

 

[need2know]

Houston's shooting is so awful.  Wow

 

[identikit]

Houston's entire offensive game plan is shoot 3's I guess.

 

[ShamrockPride]

I'll admit after watching this game. If Houston had won, Bron was going to get ring #4. Damn Rockets suck.

 

[msudaisy26]

Most of the guys complaining about the refs are Cav homers/LeBron fans. I wonder if that is a coincidence or if they really, really, REALLY, want the Rockets to win.

 

[RUSF18]

Houston's entire offensive game plan is shoot 3's I guess.

Roughly 80% of these have been comically wide open.

 

[dickey moe]

Hot damn

 

[ghostguy123]

Or, or, maybe, just maybe, the Rockets are getting hosed a bit.

Crazy right?  I know.  

I dont really care who wins.  I dont think the Cavs will beat either team.  But when I see a team getting jobbed, I say something.  Sorry

 

[ShamrockPride]

Reggie math: "Well the law of averages says if you miss every shot from 3, you gonna make every shot from 2. I'd keep working it inside."

 

[msudaisy26]

Or, or, maybe, just maybe, the Rockets are getting hosed a bit.

[encaitar]

Wow.  Perfect defense by the Rockets, but Durant still knocks down a 25 footer with a guy right in his face.  Incredible.  If Steph and Durant are hot, it's over for any team facing them.

 

[dickey moe]

Houston's entire offensive game plan is shoot 3's I guess.

Beautiful basketball until it isn't.

 

[sports_fan]

Refs are playing great perimeter defense against the Rockets

 

[ghostguy123]

What are we at now like 28 in a row?

6 for 41

 

[need2know]

Poor Chris paul

 

[Dedfin]

RIP Houston

 

[ShamrockPride]

6 for 41

Damn those refs.

 

[ghostguy123]

6 for 41

Not sure what one has to do with the other.   A team can be getting hosed AND be shooting poorly.  It's possible.  Really, it is.

 

[Britney Spears]

McGee holding Zaza back even on those corner 3s. 

 

[Jayded]

Wait three pointers are allowed?

Here comes Ariza to jack up another desperation 3 now that he saw Tucker do that. 

 

[Juxtatarot]

Too bad. I was hoping to see some new teams in the finals.

 

[mr. furley]

just stepping back in to this game after halftime

did he just say the Rockets had missed 27 threes in a row?? or 27 shots in a row?

 

[Capella]

Not sure what one has to do with the other.   A team can be getting hosed AND be shooting poorly.  It's possible.  Really, it is.

The refs have had no affect in the outcome of the game.
