Aldridge should have responded "TOUGH SHIT!"
Click to expand...

He basically did, by referencing the Tough Shit game:

Forward LaMarcus Aldridge said he heard about it, and that the same thing has been done to him.

“My goaltend on Kevin Durant two years ago when we were No. 2 in the West they said wasn’t a goaltend,” Aldridge said. “It ruined our season. After that, we lost 10 out of 12. It’s happened to all teams before.”

He didn’t have a problem with the league admitting the error.

My problem with the league admitting the error in Game 1 is that they singled out one call that went against Houston as an error, which is ridiculous in a game with so many bad calls/non calls against the Blazers.

I'm starting to take it the other way. Why should the league apologize to the winner? Apologize to the loser as consolation, because the win stands, period. It's patting their fanbase on the head and saying "I know, kid... life's not fair. We shouldn't have fouled out Dwight. But, you see... Portland still won."

Yeah, I get that too, but I don't like any acknowledgement that is one-sided and might influence the calls in future games.

It is what it is. Maybe Houston starts the game with These Refs Suck, and the refs show them what-for. It's all going to be a moot point at tipoff, I think.
 
During the first half of game one, when it was pointed out Houston had shot no free throws, I took that as a very bad sign. If your strategy is to not foul the home team, it's going to come back to haunt you later when the refs try to "even it up". Which is exactly what happened.

It's the same feeling I get when we are killing a team on their home court early in the game. You know the refs are going to mount a home team comeback, giving them momentum. It's the way of the NBA. I'd rather have a close game, then a level playing field at the end to try to earn the win.

I had that bad feeling when we got the first quarter lead in game one. But it quickly went away when our subs took the floor. Aye-aye-aye. ;)
 
fuck it, let them think it was all the refs in game 2. It will make beating them that easier. We didn't even play that well outside of Dame and LA.
 
Houston fans are so fucking idiotic. Pre game run they predict a rockets sweep. After game one they say rockets in 5. After game two they say rockets in six....get real...

You have to admire their confidence. Any time now the refs will stop favoring us and giving us these games!

Those calls are so favorable man. The blazers would get swept if the games were not officiated!
 
Saw this on the rockets forum, needless to say it is fucking awesome!

To be fair it doesn't matter who's guarded him, pretty sure everyone in the nba is afraid of la right about now...

Meh, dudes like him are a lost cause. They didn't see the entire picture.

Someone in an earlier post counted the fouls up; including phatoms, etc for fourth quarter. Tons of blown calls, and in the fourth+OT, Houston favorable calls outdid Portland favorable calls.

The entire fact that Houston went 40FTA's in just a half is just crazy. That type of refereeing is terrible and it was evident.

How is it crazy Houston has two of the most fouled players in the NBA in Howard and Harden so seeing crazy high fta from them is not surprising.

McHale denies it, but it's so obvious that "generating fouls" is just another word for flopping around, and - AND - that is way more important to their offense than they contended earlier. Without the refs propping them up, they're pretty normal.
 
The refs swung the game 10 points in Houston's favor alone, just by not calling 5 massively obvious travels. (then they call it on Batum)

Still guaranteeing a first round loss?

There's a difference between positivity and delusion. Claiming that if the rockets win game 3 they win the series is steps over the boundaries into delusional.

Likewise trying to claim that the season series is tied at 3-3 is absurd, this is the playoffs, the series is 2-0.

And claiming that they have "been here before" is ridiculous, last time I checked the only connection this team has to the championship team who came back from a 0-2 is that 1 player desperately tries to teach the current center how to play, but he will always be a fraction of him. And another player who color commentates on the games, in the worst way possible...

None of that is in the 1st 6 posts of the thread which is as far as I felt like going.

Just take an Advil, you'll be alright.

Clyde wasn't on the 0-2 team, not that it really matters. Your point is a good one, regardless.

So it's my fault you were lazy and didn't read all the way through... Okay. Hit me up at the game tomorrow and you can sit on my lap as I lull you to sleep with the soothing sound of their tears and desperation.

65% of them would rather have Lillard and Aldridge. If that poll was made prior to the series I bet it would be flipped and would be more like 90-10.

Like the respect tho!

Ps- I can deal with the ignorance, every fan base has it. What really pisses me off is how entitled rockets, heat, laker fans are. They think they can just trade for a player. Some rockets fans think they have a realistic chance of landing Aldridge, and I've seen lots of rockets fans saying melo will be there next year(jokes on them right?)

Agreed! Posted this a few hours ago. Mad respect
 
Have always respected the Houston Rockets. I haven't run across any of their fans yet. If they are complaining about the refs then that will be the first time in my lifetime another team complained the Blazers were getting calls.

What the fuck kind of response is that you little twat?

You posted a link to a thread so logically it seemed like you were referring to the OP... I'm not going to scroll through 3 pages of shit just to try to figure out what the fuck you're complaining about... It's not my fault you're too lazy to quote the comments that are hurting your head. If it's that traumatizing for you how about you don't visit the Rocket's board? Or do you just like kicking people when they're down because your own life sucks?

The kind of response you get when you attack an opinion whilst being too lazy to even read the material. If you're going to argue an opinion, you must first make yourself aware with the material, don't turn this shit into a personal attack calling me a twat and commenting on my personal life "sucking". This is a sports forum, not a pissing contest...

If you don't want to "scroll through 3 pages of shit" then why tell me I'm wrong for my thoughts? Seems like you should either be invested or not respond...

I said, "What's wrong with fans trying to be positive? Plus it's not like it's an impossibility..." That's attacking your opinion? I asked a simple question, Jesus.

And you made it personal first so don't get all self-righteous now...
