After waiting for the NBA to step in and give them another shot at beating the San Antonio Spurs, the Houston Rockets are instead going forward with their own protest of Tuesday’s loss.
The Rockets will file a protest of their loss to the Spurs, arguing that the officials’ failure to count James Harden’s dunk — which replay showed went through the rim, into the net, then up and around the outside of the rim — as a “misapplication of the rules,” according to the Houston Chronicle’s Jonathan Feigen.
ESPN’s Tim McMahon has also reported the Rockets will protest the outcome of the game.
