Warriors Escape Houston's Phantom Foul

'The Phantom Foul: How the Warriors Escaped Houston’s Wrath'

The 2018 Western Conference Finals – a series that still haunts Rockets fans like a recurring nightmare. The Warriors, a superteam built for dynasty, versus the Rockets, a squad meticulously constructed to dethrone them. But beneath the box scores and highlight reels lies a darker tale—one of controversy, conspiracy, and the foul that wasn’t called.

Game 7: The Heist in Houston

May 28, 2018. Toyota Center, Houston. The Rockets, up 3-2 in the series, had Golden State on the ropes. But then, disaster struck—Chris Paul’s hamstring gave out in Game 5, sidelining him for the decisive Game 7. Still, Houston fought. They led by 15 at halftime. Then, the third quarter happened.

The Warriors unleashed a 33-15 run, but something else unfolded—a series of no-calls that would fuel debates for years.

The Phantom Foul: James Harden’s 3-Point Attempt

With 6:47 left in the third, Harden launched a three-pointer. Draymond Green, lunging recklessly, made clear contact with Harden’s shooting arm. No whistle. The Warriors raced the other way for an easy bucket.

'That’s a foul. Anywhere else, that’s a foul,' Harden barked at referee Scott Foster. The NBA’s Last Two Minute Report later confirmed it should have been called. But by then, the damage was done.

The Free-Throw Discrepancy

Houston shot 7 free throws in the second half. The Warriors? 17. For a team that lived at the line all season, the Rockets suddenly couldn’t buy a call. Meanwhile, Steph Curry and Kevin Durant feasted, their superstar whistles in full effect.

The Aftermath: A Suspicious Silence

Rockets owner Tilman Fertitta fumed: 'We should be in the Finals right now.' GM Daryl Morey tweeted (then quickly deleted) a cryptic message about 'NBA officiating analytics.' Even Warriors coach Steve Kerr admitted, 'We got some breaks.'

But the league moved on. Golden State swept the Cavs in the Finals. The Rockets? They never recovered. CP3 was traded. Harden forced his way out. The dynasty that never was, derailed by one night of phantom fouls and questionable whistles.

The Conspiracy Theories

The NBA’s Golden Child: Did the league want the Warriors in the Finals for ratings?

Scott Foster’s Shadow: Known as 'The Extender,' Foster had a history of controversial games. Coincidence?

The Missing CP3 Factor: If Paul had played, would the refs have dared swing it so blatantly?

We’ll never know. But in Houston, they remember.

And they’re still waiting for justice.
