we already get out the first round,and make lakers like a p***y.no matter win or lose,we did a great job this season.we are playing $50,000,000 vs lakers $90,000,000.lakers not that good,we can beat them.
the moment we came back after that first quarter, i was proud of the team. the lakers shot amazingly and our team showed them their best isn't enough to put us away. lakers got dirty and we lost our composure a bit. if yao and scola produce, the lakers are in trouble.
I am also proud of our coming back with 14 pts deficits with our bench playing and Yao on the bench. I think LA have done 100% they have including dirty fouls, so we will definitely win the coming games at TC. Go, Rockets!
I rather lose clean then win dirty. If that's the best they can do, we're going to let them have it here in Houston. Screw the Lakers.
He played like a 6 feet tall sissy girl. Their big did whatever they wanted with him. From La times: "Pau Gasol and Lamar Odom pushed and prodded all night on Yao Ming, turning the giant star into a giant stiff." When they get physical you don't stand there and take it, dude has got to learn to respond. Clearly outplayed but also handcuffed by the zebras. http://www.latimes.com/sports/baske...-lakers7-2009may07,0,4502517.column?track=rss
It will be wrong to think this is the best of the Lakers. Rockets have to do way better in terms of rotation of the ball and perimeter defenses.
yeah i thought they figured this out? if he is getting fronted he needs to MOVE AROUND. also he needs to run down the court and get position FIRST. im fine with him playing less minutes if he isnt able to do anything on the court because hayes is playing MAZING D
Same here. I'm so proud of this team, and I believe we can beat the Fakers and get out of the 2nd round.
At first, I felt like the first win was a fluke because the Lakers were caught off gaurd, but after staying neck and neck with them I believe we have real opportunity to win this series. Continue to play hard Rockets and please remain composed, we can win this. Let's get it.
Thats why we all love the Rockets and where our heart lies and why we are ClutchFans!!! If we aren't we wouldn't be here
The lakers played dirty because the refs spoiled them.NBA is just a show to fool the fans and earn money,NOT a real sport.I knew it lone time ago. But I like our rockets.Win or lose,I'm proud of them.
i completely agree. i couldn't be more proud. yeah, there are things we could've done better but i think we are surprising a lot of ppl in the NBA world that thought we would bow down to the lakers. this is our time! i feel the heart and passion and the desire to win when i watch us play. let's keep focused! we can take this series!!! i've said it all along, we have the tools to do it, just need to execute.
Oh man.. when the Lakers' playoff run ends.. and it eventually will, I will be so happy to watch Kobe cry.
I was looking for this thread and gonna post to bump it up. Last night was the first loss I didn't lose sleep over. We played hard and we proved we aren't a joke. Lakers played dirty and can talk all they want but lets see how long they can hang with Whooouston after more games of our physicall beasts Artest is the man and the coolest most genuine NBA star out there. He doesn't give cheeze ball answers like kobe...'this is fun..i like physical blah blah blah' Artest says 'I'm Ron Artest! you know who you elbowing?' hahaha
Wanted to bump this thread because this is what I've been thinking all morning. I am really proud of this team. We have heart and we have pride. No matter what happens.
