The funny part about this is that it might actually be helping us. I saw @ATL as a loss anyway, and I was really worried about playing Memphis the next night. Now James Harden is fully rested for the Grizz.



I was thinking the same thing. The away-home back to backs are rough.

The refs were pussies about it. Should've been a flagrant 2 on the spot. Changed the outcome of the game by letting harden finish.

Also better to win a western conference game if you had to choose.

Why in the hell didn't they toss him out of the game? Bs to do it after the fact.

I'm glad they didn't toss him. I think the referees have to have some common sense on the court and can have some discretion in the calls they make instead of doing it by the book.

Because what Harden did was certainly not worthy of being tossed from the game, even if it is the letter of the law.

Being tossed should be for more serious offenses like throwing punches and actually fighting. Not a little nut tap.

I'm fine with the punishment, but there was no need for an ejection for that. So good call by the referee.

Exactly. It was more of a nudge, a reaction from the entire play of mugging on Harden. With no whistle!

The refs are the ones who need to be suspended. That entire situation got out of control. That was just 1 example too. They sucked the whole game!

It was a very weak kick though, a part of me thinks that if it didn't happen to LeBron
Yeah, because Lebron gets ALL the calls and demands so much attention when things like this happen. Thank goodness the league is looking after Lebron on this one

That doesn't make any sense. If it's worth being suspended from an entire game, it's worth being ejected from the game that it happened.
