Harden would be stupid enough to think he'd get the nod on calls over LeBron. LeBron does not even get called for regular fouls (let alone technicals or coming close to fouling out) in entire games! Glad to have him on our side now
Harden's been the beneficiary of far too many of those "*sneeze* - it's a foul!" calls from the zebras. Looking a gift h̶o̶r̶s̶e̶ zebra in the mouth will only get him the silent treatment in the playoffs again.
I can't stand Harden, but there is a reason Scott Foster was voted worst referee in the league by coaches and players in 2016. _________________ Love, Laker Lanny

The irony of a player who has hit more FTs than FGs for his career (!) whining about unfavourable officiating is too much to bare. He should also get a hefty fine.
Ref, not refs (plural). He complained about one official.
If only all refs held him accountable for his bs style of play. Unfortunately, you’re right, it’s only one... for now. This Rockets team is teetering on dropping back into irrelevance.
Enjoy that one. That was the 1 out of 4 that we got decent officiating visavis Harden in partic. That wasn't there in the games at HOU for dayum sure. I'd trade 3 games of ref silliness in my favor for 1 game of them not falling for every foul-hunting gimmick in the book. If we face them in the playoffs, we'll get 1 of 4 again. The refs will recalibrate to Harden's BS again. _________________ GOAT MAGIC REEL SEDALE TRIBUTE EDDIE DONX!

exactly.
But what say you to this...that last crucial play was essentially harden vs lbj, and doesn't lbj get that call in his favor as he is the greater star? so would that still be 1/4 in that specific case?
