    Who cares? It is just one game. This is far from being over. The Rockets need to take this one game a time until we win the series. This is how we should take it too.

    I never said its over, I just wanted to know what they were/are saying. This is far from over, this might end up going 7 games. But I want to know if they are still ridiculing the rockets chances of even competing with the lakers.

    It's pretty predictable isn't it

    Some will complain about refs, someone will complain about their own players, and some will remain proud and confident, etc

    It's not like there's anything else to talk about

    Yeah, they are saying they have to win one in Houston now.

    They certainly haven't given up, yet.

    I'm just glad they see this series as an actual matchup that requires the Lakers to have to show up and play basketball for 48 minutes.

    Not some cakewalk to the NBA Finals.

    You reading this Myopic Laker Fans?

    They can't get over it...

    they're pride is so big, I'm glad Rockets delivered them a loss

    I also hope Rockets win game two so they can stop whining about being the best team ever like they're unbeatable

    Most of what I read has them saying that Fisher needs fewer minutes since he can't guard Brooks. Also a lot of props to Yao Ming for being a warrior. Though one person did call him a drama queen.

    Some are also saying they should feed Pau in the post early and often.

    Let them do all the talking. "Stay Hungry, Be Humble" are all the Rockets should be this playoff season.

    Overwhelming themes from Laker fans, coaches, and players comments:

    1. We won't play that badly again.
    2. Week-long layoff screwed us up, physically and mentally.
    3. Guard play/lack of speed is a major issue.
    4. We'll never shoot 2 for 18 beyond the arc again.
    5. Need more Bynum, less Gasol guarding yao.
    6. Bryant will have more trust in his teammates next game.
    7. Houston win an anomaly: Lakers in 5 or 6.

    Keep on dreaming "pie-in-the-sky", Lakers!

    they aren't really giving credit to our defense, they are just saying it was a bad shooting night for them, but now their fans think the series will go to 6 or maybe even 7 games

    HAHA I can't WAIT to get into work, where my office consists of middle school Laker fans taunting me ALL YEAR LONG...

    Yesterday I bravely told them they were in for a surprise.

    I should have taken the coworkers bet...
