Rockets want last night's game to be replayed or the results overturned

[STATUTORY]

awarding the win retroactively.


A Rockets source is optimistic that the NBA office will take action regarding James Harden's dunk that didn't count, either awarding the win to Houston or ordering that the final 7:50 be replayed because the Rockets outscored the Spurs in regulation. The Rockets believe a..

What's so funny about that? They literally got points taken away from them.

This shit is legit gonna get replayed. Every miss Harden had after that is about to get wiped away.

harden has 65% more made free throws (261) than the second placed Luka Doncic (158), so everything is possible when it comes to Harden and the refs.

[hiphopanonymous]

Breaking: harden wants more preferential treatment :lol

[red1]

disgusting. the NBA should take away one of their wins for having the audacity to ask.

[LoneyROY7]

Breaking: harden wants more preferential treatment :lol

Harden wants his dunks that he clearly makes to count!?!

What a novel idea! :oldlol: :oldlol:

[red1]

if I was a mod I would automatically ban every harden stan. anyone with a harden avatar.



he is a disgusting player.

[red1]

rockets fans would get a pass from the ban.

[FireDavidKahn]

Wont happen and I don't agree with it...but that was seriously one of the worst calls I have ever seen.

There was literally *nothing* controversial about it and a quick review would have solved everything. It wasn't like a questionable foul or some shit like that...the ball clearly went through the hoop.:oldlol:

It was definitely one of the worst calls ive ever seen but lets not act like he isnt gifted 6-8 pts a night on ridiculous foul calls.

It doesn't matter if you think those are ridiculous foul calls, they were called fouls by the refs with the jurisdiction they have.

They don't have the jurisdiction to take away made baskets. This game will be replayed...it's happened in the NBA before.

[Gileraracer]

I'd reply every close game Harden ever had since, after watching the reply, the refs should see that at least 40% of his free throws are the result of flopping.

Calls like that one literally have never happened. A clear made dunk disallowed and then not replayed to check?

Never happened before.

Thats fine they can replay it. That woukd actually be pretty dope but at the end of the day theres always missed shit on both sides so i just think what happen didnt really change the outcome. Whats the difference between the refs missing that dunk and them missing the counless travels that harden does? Harden and the rockets had 2 points taken away for that dunk but how many points have harden and the rockets got from the refs missing his travels or his flopping to get calls?

[jayfan]

This wasn't a bad call. There was no foul situation. Nothing subjective.

It was a missed made basket. A math error, basically. The 2 points should be added.

Rockets about to go to 0-2 in asking for replays :roll:

That was about 1/100th of poetic Justice Houston deserves for all the bs they get

[Real Men Wear Green]

I'm sure they keep track of bad calls like that and referees get draded, promoted and demoted based on such things. And that should be the end of it. Every one of us will see our team lose a few close games in a season where there was one bad call that went against our team. They don't redo results. Especially with 8 minutes of playing time left after the call.

They need to be more transparent with how they evaluate refs. Seems like ref fk ups are not held accountable or not as much as it should be. Either way the process should be transparent to the public.

You're a guaranteed cuck in real life. Come see me, bud. :oldlol: :oldlol:

[ArbitraryWater]

We're talking a legit basket taken away.

No subjectively bad call.

No room for interpretation.

It's like when the Jazz hit a 3 in the '98 finals game 6 and it got waived off for coming after the buzzer when it didn't.

It's a technical right/wrong issue.

And the Bulls got a 3 which actually came after the shot clock expired :oldlol: :facepalm

Your attempt to make a semantic argument makes no difference. There is no making this right, as is normally the case with a bad call. If you give the Rockets the win you invalidate the final 7-8 minutes of the game. If you order the game replayed from that point you are eliminating factors like how tired players normally would be in the fourth and/or who is or isn't injured, who got traded, who got waived, who got signed. The game is over and there is certainly a strong argument to be made that Houston got robbed. Unfortunately that happens. We don't have any history of a game's results getting reversed or the final quarter getting replayed. It doesn't happen. This isn't a special circumstance.

What are you talking about? There are several well documented instances where games were replayed due to egregious errors like this.

I have no dog in the fight, I’m a raps fan.

But I think this game should be replayed with 8 minutes left. I highly doubt the NBA will do so. In the end, we’ll get an apology and a rule change for next season/this season.

Refs should not be able to take away made buckets.

I disagree. It's more than semantics. Not counting a made basket doesn't fall under the category of bad call. It's a calculable error. And there's some precedence here....

https://www.espn.com/nba/news/story?id=3192421 That is at least an example of replaying although it's just a minute and not 7+. I don't see where you guys are coming from when you say it wasn't just a bad call. The refs ruled that a made basket was a missed basket. That's the definition of a bad call.

[ThiccBoi]

I could be wrong. Can you name them?

if it's comes to it, replaying the game is more acceptable than outright giving Rockets the win

that's just the fallacy of predetermined outcome at work.

Replaying a quarter I would say than the whole game.

Miss calls do happen, but this was a missed bucket. I know missed buckets happened before in the past. Like the Jazz in the 1998 finals and such.

As other ppl said, I doubt they would make'em replay it. I feel like they should, but whatever. They'll take this incident and learn from it for future references.

[Mean Joe Bean]

Rockets are dreaming.

The best the NBA will do is admit their error and say they hope to improve in the future.

Replaying the game or forfeiting the win? :roll:

DAntoni should have immediately asked for replay

He tried to challenge it but they didn't let him


The officials later realized that the ball actually did go through the net. Capers said that while the play was reviewable and could have been challenged, there is only a 30-second window to officially challenge it, and Rockets head coach Mike D'Antoni missed the window to challenge.

However, D'Antoni said after the game that he tried to challenge and didn't receive a response.

"I heard that they said the ball hit James and went back through, so it was a goaltend on James. I challenged that, and I didn't get a response," D'Antoni said. "Then another guy said it wasn't a goaltend; it went out of bounds on us. And I said, 'Well, I challenge that.' Can't do that. You know, I don't know, to answer your question. I've got nothing. I can't tell you."
