    And two of them in LA!

    I believe, but I wouldnt set my expectation too high. We gave LA problems, got respect, made noise. We can call it good ending for this season. I expect this off season, the roster will change quite a bit. The current pieces can take us so far, can give us so much. The change is inevitable.

    We need to give em absolute hell in game 5...Pull out all the stops, so if they do win, we know we gave them maximum effort.

    It's over. Why? It's back to street balling and desparation jacking up shots time and many turnovers.

    Seriously Kobe and Shaq sooner or later going to have a breakout game and not be denied for third time. We had our chance at home but couldnt get the knockout punch.

    It's almost time to cleanhouse and that's teh next exciting thing I look forward to.

    I second you.

    Maybe we can't win the series. But we do have chance.
    Bring as much trouble as possible to LA!

    Forget all those stupid statistics, just play every game hard and smart!!!

    The Rockets have the blueprint to beat the Lakers the next three games. It is so simple but it takes disclipline and will be boring and methodical.

    The Rox need to run a pick-and-roll EVERY FREAKIN TIME down court. I mean 100%. The Lakers are old and slow and can't defend it well. Rox would win each game by at least 10 points.

    However, since the Rox have too many undiscplined players that will never happen and the series will most likely end on Wednesday. :(

    I say let's go out with a bang. A massive ambush on Karl Malone that gives him a career ending injury, with Boki leading the attack.

    Someone needs to. I can't believe no one's ever done anything to that guy.

    I think all we can really gain from here on in is experience. We've given it a really good go. I would have loved to have kicked their ass, but at the end of the day we only got whipped in one game and the other two could have gone either way, it just came down to luck and a little bit of experience on their part.

    I'm still proud of the way they performed and I think we'll win one more.

    I BELIEVE!!!

    I believe as much as one could in the Rockets winning this series. This series really should be 3-1 Rockets or 2-2 at least. It is infuriating and heartbreaking that it isn't.

    We've lost two games on just a play or two that didn't go our way; if those plays can go our way in the upcoming games, there's no reason we can't win.

    I really think the Rockets are the better team in this series, the outcome just really sucks right now.

    We choked today, but before there was Clutch City there was Choke City. It happened 10 years ago, time to celebrate the anniversary.

    I never think Rockets will win this series with 4 games in LA.

    Although our players did a great job in the 1st game, it's still a pity we lost game 1 and 4. We are likely to end this series 2-4 to 3-4, I think, for kobe might miss the next game for his trial.

    What a pity we lost today. If we have won, we were more likely to have this series in our hands.

    But still, it's not easy and I'm so happy to see such a young and unexperienced team like Rockets making big troubles for that nasty team in LA.

    Let's going on making LA more troulbes. We'll made their playoffs tough and exhausting. They do not deserve the Ring. The cheap Karl Malone will never ever get a Ring!
