    Beverly was guarding Nash. Nash set a screen on Lin. Beverly rotated onto Gasol. Howard rotated to Blake.

    Wtf blunder right there.

    i don't know why dwight was in the game on offense to begin with at that point in the game. it's hard to inbound the ball when the other team knows you don't want to pass to one guy. of course he's going to be free and the inbounder will panic when the clock is running in his head and throw to the open man.

    Blake is Lin's man and he left himself be caught by Nash.

    Lakers will be rejoicing after this one. Could it have gone any better for them?

    Bev and lin got confused. Bev has no intelligence. He can defend on the ball, but off the ball he is hardeness pathetic.

    That was on Lin. Blake was his man, and Lin lost him. You can see Lin shouting at the refs after the shot was made (cause he was held by Nash), but you can't rely on them that late into the game.

    We gave them every chance to win and when you do that in the NBA you're asking for a lost. Championship teams don't make the mental problems we made tonight. Growing pains.

    Clutch hold by Steve Nash. Dude has been long enough to know how to play the game. Refs all looking at the ball.

    Looks like Nash grabbed Lin. Beverley didn't rotate in time. Refs didn't call it. Happens.

    This game should not have come to the last shot. Rockets have so much to work on especially starting games off. No way in world are they going far if they keep starting games being down double digits. Damn hit some damn FTs Dwight.

    Not this bad. With all due respect, Howard is pretty bad with his post moves, and his FTs are big liability. BTW, head coaching is a liability also. No way Rockets players are going to gel to challenge top teams. They just gave the game away, after they clawed back. The worst kind of loss.
