Melo has looked great tonight and has really started to accept his role the past week or so. I still think he could be a very good fit if these guys keep working on the offense.

I just saw the ending to that Rockets/Cs game. What a joke. How they call those two offensive fouls on Harden is crazy. I will never understand officials

From the stream Shel posted I wouldn't be upset with that being called a foul. But I am not a fan of either team, any particular player on either team, nor did I wager on the game so I can look at it objectively.

those are beyond horrendous calls.

just ego's taking over at the absolute worst time. there are push offs like that on every in bounds play and ever curl off a screen on every play of every game

I had no cash on this one although I did consider laying the 2 with Houston but that was crazy. The first call is a MAYBE. That second one was total crap

I don't follow NBA as much as I'd like. But isn't a pushoff a foul? The second one he was running through the defender. Those aren't fouls in the NBA? More of a let them play type situation? I really don't know

1. As Dave said, that's a standard play nowadays

2. Smart flopped on both.

3. It's usually a no call because the defender is basically wrapping up/holding the offensive guy, the only way he's going to shake free is to give him a little push.

I just noticed that Kevin Love is quietly averaging 20 and 10 playing less than 30 minutes per game.
