  1. I got a wake up in 2 and a half hours and now I’m too angry to fall asleep. Man fuck this shit

  2. This pressconference gonna be interesting. The freethrow disparity was insane, the final call was insane. Fuck.

  3. Refs fucking suck but respect to our guys for making it close shorthanded and against garbage officiating.

  4. Can’t let these recent losses get us down. Knicks will be in the play-offs. Can’t help that we’re depleted. Refs still ass though, I expect a written apology and a fine.

  5. Refs fucked us all game really, last play was icing on the cake. That bs aside, I want to give a shout out to Precious, he was a BEAST.

  6. That was absolutely disgraceful. If there really is a Deep State, it might be solely comprised of NBA officials.

  7. where have you seen this big of a FT discrepancy? 33 to 12??????????????? are you fucking serious?

    Fuck these refs, fuck Ed “blind piece of shit” Malloy

  8. What a terrible way to end the game. Holidays body was turning they called a similar thing on divo earlier and besides that how the fuck do you call that on a heave with marginal contact that was already gone. In the same token Brunson should have let that one go

  9. Jalen Brunson has gotten fucking murdered the entire the game and the refs have allowed it to happen but Jalen Brunson gives this asshole a love tap(he didn’t even initiate or make contact I bet) on a Half court heave that would have been complete bullshit and zero skill if it went in and we lost the fucking game

    The team isn’t good for over 22 years, they finally have an elite team. They are one of the best teams in the nba. Everybody gets hurt ofc

    And when this skeleton crew team that’s left grinds out an Ot result despite their best player basically having a bounty against him the entire game, the refs decide they want to make them lose. Only this team

    I hope everybody gets suspended or fined for this

  10. We took…. 12 FTs… compared to their 33 FTs…… Lets be real this game was decided before the game started.

    ​

    Proud of our knicks in the second half. Shots finally started falling (especially for Boggy). Good to see Josh Hart taking (and making) more threes.

    ​

    Onto the next!

  11. Refs gifted the Rockets nearly TRIPLE the amount of free throws that they called for the Knicks so i guess they just had to finish taking a shit on the game by calling that phantom foul on a 35 foot 1 handed prayer. Refs need to start being held publicly accountable for bullshit games like this so the fans know something is being done to correct the loss of faith in nba officiating. The way the league loves to tell us about players and coaches being fined for calling out inept officiating, we need to start seeing refs being fined for games like these. Enough is enough, and I hope Thibs lets the league have it on his post game presser and Dolan just needs to cover the fine.

  12. That was blatant travel before the jump ball too. Like the type of travel u have to call even if u give them an extra half step or step.

  13. bad calls happen sometimes.

    but it was again, and again, and again, and again. and almost all
    i’m the rockets favor.

    i take nothing away from the rockets players. they played a good game. but these fucking refs absolutely robbed us. there is a major problem in the league right now, and everyone is talking about it.

  14. Calls like that is why all officials in all sports need to be available to answer media questions. It’s not a fucking foul

  15. An absolute embarrassment for the referees tonight.

    Referees are ruining all 4 major sports in the USA. And it’s probably because of betting.

    Unreal.

  16. I am so god damn proud of Precious, Hart, and all of these guys. Tank is beyond empty and they’re going above and beyond.

    Also – Rockets dropped streamers at the final whistle. Absolute bunch of losers. Proud of the Knicks contingent in H-Town!

  17. You can’t make that foul call in that spot unless it’s clear and convincing.

    The referee that called the foul was even on the wrong side of the floor and couldn’t see the contact from where he was standing since he was blocked by Brunson on the fly by.

    Knicks must protest this game.

  18. Professional Sport referees have to be some of the most spineless fucking weasels possible. They just need to stick their heads in and ruin everything. Losers who weren’t good enough to actually make it in sports, so they need to do this bullshit to compensate.

  19. What a waste of a great fucking game. I was so into this shit going into the 4th quarter, and hyped as fuck to go into overtime. Refs were garbage and incredibly unprofessional the entire damn game. What a joke

  20. Brunson gets WWE treatment the entire game and not one call is made.

    Brunson’s jersey touches a guy and a foul is called.

    Make it make sense.
