HOUSTON – Frustrated by the free-throw disparity, Clippers coach Doc Rivers vehemently expressed his displeasure with the officiating following his team's 101-96 loss to the Houston Rockets Thursday night at the Toyota Center before 18,055 fans.
With his suit jacket off and his dress shirt rumpled from a night of arguing to no avail with the referees, Rivers stood with his back against a wall with a stat sheet folded in his hands and vented.
He pointed out how the Rockets shot 41 three-pointers and still shot almost three times as many free throws as the Clippers.
