intentional, Lowry clearly mouthed "miss it" or "ima miss it" before it to Yao...he actually did a great job, looked like he wanted the rebound to be righ tunder the hoop so it was a longer shot and in traffic, perfect miss.
Well if Lakers would be kind enough to give us a 30 point head start before each game in the series begins, I think we might have a chance against them!
I hope we show up in Game 5. We need to put this series away fast. I could see this team playing the Lakers well. We just have to shoot better than we have been.
Great win. Hard fought game and we held on. Shane Battier was the MVP! Huge shots and good defense on Roy at the end along with Hayes.
Whew!!!Thank goodness we survived Ron's bricks in crucial minutes despite shooting 5-20!!!! That and missed FT.. Why didn't create open 3 for SHANE.
yes and no, portland actually played very good d at certain times of this game and they also made some very very tough shots to keep them in it...we're not playing well, but portland isn't exactly giving us anything, we had to score, defend to close it out.
Never easy being a Rockets fan... Hopefully they can close this one out fast. Sick of the Blazers and their miracle shots.
We are lucky to face the Blazers. If we won the last game against the Mavs, we would probably not be able to get out of the 1st round again.
Don't let Ron Artest control the ball near the end of the game! His overconfidence will cost us big time...Dude can't dribble and have a addiction on shooting. When he's hot-headed, he just ignore other people and try to create his own shots. He's not Kobe or Tmac...
