enough pussyfooting around - quit waiting on the see nothing refs and return the physicality in kind - tired of getting pushed around on both sides of the floor

They need to sack up and take it too them in the 4th and force them to call fouls or start hacking them back! Get physical these refs wanna let that poo go then do it too geesh! Wish KD would play like he actually gives a poo some nights he’s just cruising out there with zero passion!

 

[Cheesebeef]

I mean so are they. We have more FTs and they have 50% more personal fouls called on them.

LOL… but we’re totally getting jobbed by the refs!

 

[BirdGangThing]

No commercials in between the quarters??

 

[Chris_Sanders]

Oh… and for everyone complaining about the refs, I’m listening to the Rockets feed u fortunately and guess what… they’re bitching nonstop about the refs being pro-Suns.

Its a poopy ref crew for everyone. I have seen like 3 really bad calls against the Suns but they were all travel / palming. The rest has been right in line with a VERY physical game.

 

[Cheesebeef]

The Rockets have lost NINE games in a row on the road.

 

[Sunburn]

To me, it seems like we never play consistently hard. Every now and then, with good results, but then we relax. It always looks like the other team is playing throughout the game with more energy, more intensity, more hunger. Except for the Pistons.

looked like all ball

Sack it up is what is missing.

Rockets have a good young nucleus. I have been a fan of Green's game. Shengun has really blossomed. Jabari Smith is going to be real good in a year.

make up call

 

[Dback Jon]

Another inexplicable call by the ref.

There was no foul on Durant

 

[AzCardsfan76]

Suns are getting clowned right now.

 

[Phrazbit]

Durant is killing me.

 

[Dback Jon]

We are. Sorry you are incapable of seeing the timing of fouls that really effect the game.

 

[Chris_Sanders]

Durant is killing me.

3-6 from FTs

 

[BirdGangThing]

let's go

 

[Cheesebeef]

Sack it up is what is missing.

There’s just zero mental or physical toughness on this team. Or at least there aren’t nearly enough guys who are both mentally and physically tough.

 

[Yuma]

This is happening in the WNBVA too. Teams are playing like the Rockets and just mugging other teams. Seems like that is becoming the way to play in the NBA again. Pistons bully ball is coming back.

 

[Dback Jon]

Durant was fouled. Should have been an and one

Refs are not biased… for the most part… they just suck all around.

They get most of the obvious calls right and they get at least half of the close calls wrong… and they typically favor stars.

LOL. Okay. You sound as silly as the Houston announcers. We’re gettunh whooped in transition, not guarding the three and Durant and Book stink. Those are the reasons we’re getting our butts handed to us by a BAD team
And a HORRIBLE road team. Not the refs.

They do suck. Two refs used to see 90% of what was happening. Now three refs can't see anything.

Current foul situation:

Rockets 19 Suns 12

FTs: Rockets 17 Suns 23

The reason the Suns are really losing:

3 point percentage has fallen to 26%

18 assists to 13 turnovers.

Big 3 is a combined -37

No way! It’s totally because of the timing of the lopsided foul calls for us which is why we’ve consistently been down by 10-15 points all game!
