    Artest, man the f up with these stupid passes. Take it to the hole, they're over the foul limit !!! These Rockets are shooting themselves in the foot with this nonsense, we are owning the Lakers yet cannot get a solid lead. If we lose, it's all on themselves tonight. Bunch of low IQ'd aholes, except for Yao, Battier & Scola. The rest is playing like ****.

    I don't know whether to be frustrated or satisfied.

    the Lakers have taken 40 shots already to our 28. they get four chances to score and they are going to convert.

    we have got to stop the TOs

    yet the game is tied...

    One thing i always took for granted was Tmac's passing. Man oh man was his passing better than Ron's !!

    not a lot, but lowry isn't exactly tearing it up by driving to the basket to not finish over and over. we all know neither of our PG's is perfect.

    our defense is unbelievably good. We'd have a decent cushion if we stopped turning it over.

    Lakers are baiting the penetration then collapse. They should relax. They are giving up the outside shots.

    On a positive note, the defense has been much improved this quarter.

    Unforced turnovers are completely unacceptable at this level, ridiculous. They were the difference in the last game. I hope they are not the difference tonight. The Rockets are lucky they are in the game. They have not played their best.

    really? because ron just threw that ball away. brooks didn't have a chance at catching it.

    people need to stop blaming a guy when its not his fault.

    are you serious? Dont want to badmouth you but you are making yourself a hater.

    Amazing defense, Rockets. But if only we could lower down the turnover rate. I want to see more Lowry, please.

    What the hell is Moron Brooks doing??? Can he be just a little more concentrated on the court???

    Well, we are playing our grind-it-out pace.

    Turnover is bearable only if we D up so much that the Lakers can't capitalize.

    One stat that is going to kill us in the long run if the Rockets don't correct is the fact that at this time out break, The lakers have shot 41 times and the Rockets 30. They will eventually make more of those. Turnovers are killing us as well. Better get it together in the 2nd half.
