ClutchFans Game Thread: Lakers @ Rockets 4/23/2004 (Playoffs Round 1, Game 3)

i have a good feeling about this game. it's now or never.

 

no, if the rockets loss the next game they'll just fold cuz the next game is the most important game for their confidence. there has to be a time they step up an win a game and what a better time than this.

 

Welcome to the board.

 

Will be in the fourth row from the floor, section 113!!

Me and my wife are going to scream my lungs out!!

Roxs win big time!!

Roxs 98
Fakers 81

 

The play off are coming to town



Let's go rockets

 

There is no way Rockets can win if they can't score more than 90.

 

Lol, you lurk for 9 months before posting, and this is what you come up with?

Rockets win, because, well, they have no other option.

 

Who are you to question einstein's opinion.

I am so fuggin pumped for this game. I considered dropping a few hundy on duckets, but instead having a rockets party at my house.

Im thinking about goint to the Summit, errrr Compaq Center, errrrrr Lakewood Church... to say a prayer and call on the spirit of Clutch City past to help us out. Hey, it cant hurt...

This is what weve waited 5 years for, a big game in the playoffs. Now its here, time to step up Rox, please, give us something to cheer for!!

DOWN WITH THE FAKERS!!!!!!

ROCKETS RUMBLE with defense and Yao has breakout playoff game.

Rockets 97
Lakers 86

 

With Rockets so unpredictable, it won't be a close game. Big win or loss.

I see Yao Ming has crazy numbers, something like 30/15/5.
Shaq fouled out at 2:31 mark in 4th.

My meditation indicates a big win.

 

All I want to say is

GIVE THEM HELL!

 

We can do it! It is time to pull of a win, and for Yao to get a heart beat. I miss our big guy, when will he show up to the 2004 playoffs?! Yao dude...where are ya?!

SF has by far done the best out of any Rocket this post season. His last game was almost pefect.

I so badly want to see Yao get good number and help Stevie carry this team to victory.

 

ill agree with ZRB. Bring out the brooms for game 4.

 

In the coming game.......

- Jim Jackson makes 12-13 3pt attempts
- Cat holds Kobe to just 2 pts
- Yao ends Shaq season by accidentally steps on his big toe
- SF has a triple double and a tech call by hanging on the rim
- Cato's elbow breaks Malone's nose badly without any call

and the most important thing is ......
Rockets 129-69 WIN

KH

 

No Excuses.

1) FULL HOUSE

2) LOUD AND INSANE THROUGHOUT THE GAME


There are no excuses. The Lakers. Yao vs Shaq. Primetime. Win or go home.

And after watching the MSG be the loudest and the most insane in years even with a loss, I know what loud is. I know what insane is. I know what deafening is.

I want the Space Station to say "Damn, is that the Toyota Center?"

Personally, I think the worst fans are in Houston. Atlanta running a close second. And it seems Mobley seems to think Houston SUCKS also. But I KNOW that during the golden years, it was 747 Jet Plane loud in the Summit. It can be done. Maybe not consistantly. But you have to start somewhere.

I will be in Jersey. Screaming. Kicking the TV. Yelling at Mobley to stop shooting so much. Yelling at Francis to stop dribbling so much. I will have a Crunchy Chalupa in one hand and a Diet Coke in the other. I will be ready. If I were in Houston, I would be at the game because my dad had season tickets. I was there when Dream was in his 1st year all the way to his 10th. Faithful with my dad for 10 straight years. I left before the good times rolled in. But I would be there if I could. Trust me. AND YOU SHOULD TRY TO BE THERE ALSO!!

Show the world that Clutch City lives and stop being a bunch of whiny babies and wannabe GM's. Even if we lose, I want to hear BLISTERING NOISE. FULL HOUSE!!! Show up. Support! And make the Lakers ears BLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEED ROCKET FREAKIN RED!! I AM TIRED OF THIS REP!!

BRING THE NOISE!!!


Sincerely,

Quiet Daddy.

 

LOL! I hope its loud too, it should drive the team to victory

 

I mean Mobley not MoT

 

The face of warriors awaiting battle.







Jesus Christ, Did JVG send them to boot camp or something.

 

Let's take it back to LA and win it on their home court. Rox win the series 4-2.
