NBA Media Shreds Refs For Lakers Loss Vs. Rockets

The Los Angeles Lakers confronted the Houston Rockets a couple of months ago. There was an awful brawl between Rajon Rondo and Chris Paul, which resulted in a suspension for Rondo, Paul and Brandon Ingram. So,there is a huge chance of seeing another brawl for both teams. However, Rondo is out of the game due to a broken hand, and Ingram sprained his ankle. We did not see another fight today. But officials made sure their presence was felt.

Nene was eliminated and Luke Walton got himself a technical foul. The media covering the match were shocked by all the things they spotted on the court.

“His 17 attempts is the second highest number of free throw attempts for James Harden this season. His third highest is 15 three times including against the Lakers. I’d wager he reaches his season high of 19 before we’re done here today,” Tania Ganguli tweeted.

Harden had his season-high when it comes to free throw attempts, but he made sure they look like 1,900. We saw the officials calling about every single thing in the match.

“Nene gets tossed, then Luke Walton picks up a T for his reaction to a Kuzma foul (protecting Kuz there). But there’s a lot of tension between these two teams — even with Rondo and Ingram back home,” Bill Oram wrote.

After he was eliminated, Luke Walton was close to joining him. He was called for a technical after complaining about a call on Kyle Kuzma. What happened out there?
