    Last year's rookies did it tonight. Scola set the tone,wow didn't expect that against Gasol, then Aaron and Carl took control of the game.

    i don't think i've ever been prouder of any team in my life. seriously, 2 wins against the vaunted fakers without Yao Ming and Tracy McGrady. this might be the best TEAM the Rockets have ever put on the floor.

    the rockets without hakeem after cartright's elbow is right on par.

    If there was any such thing as post season MVP, I feel it should go to Aaron Brooks. The last time a second year PG played like this for the Rockets was Sam Cassell. I think this guy is better. Lock up Aaron Brooks to a deal win or lose Sunday. He can be the next Tony Parker....

    This might sound funny to everyone but maybe this is the best year i have expereinced as a Rockets fan. I mean look at how much heart they are playing with. They got to the second round and are still rolling. Its unbelivible. I love this team. I think ones this is all done in june ;) you guys will say the same thing, especially with all we had to deal with.

    Rockets Red

    Notice Richard Justice over at chron.com kept writing blogs like "If this is the end for the Rockets, it was still a great run"? So true, but, if we keep winning these seemingly unwinnable games, the poor man will soon run out of stuff to write! :D

    The pulse is definitely faint - Jerome Solomon, Houston Chronicle, 5/14/2009

    "Choke City is dead.
    Clutch City is a great memory.
    Sadly, unless this is a movie - fitting against Hollywood's team - Crutch City gets buried today."

    Would you like fries with that crow, Mr. Solomon?

    We need to stay humble for sunday but we definitely have a chance to make the city of LA implode.

    (Post-Game interview) Kobe talking about "Getting the hell out out this [series].. and looking forward to the next." Umm yeah.. I'm sure that other team, a team full of vicious pittbull underdogs, would have something to say about that.

    We stun Lakers 3 time? ~ lol

    ESPN keeps saying we stunned the Fakers every time we beat them. it's amazing how biased the media could be huh~
    I mean, it's not stunning anymore if you keep beating someone like s**t over and over again, right?
    that's just funny~
    well, we'll "stun" them again Sunday I guess~
