ClutchFans Game Thread: Lakers @ Rockets 5/8/2009 (Playoffs Round 2, Game 3)

How can you tell the difference? Seriously, they are both terrible PGs and the only thing special about them is they can shoot.

Eddie House > both of them

 

its being officiated in a way that makes home court pointless, there are noncalls on the rockets end while there seems to be lots of calls going against

 

i just snitched and reported you to the police of this board.

 

he didn't. brooks can actually dribble, get a pass to someone, and make a layup.

 

That's why most old schoolers don't even come into the garm. I don't even have to call names, they'll show up in a minute.

 

This is a pivotal game. Not only for the 82% but we need to stay one step ahead of this team, if we can't hold serve today the Lakers will go for the jugular on Sunday.

 

LOL at the bold.

You must have mistaken him with Lowry.

 

How many turnovers AB already has? Is he a Laker?

 

yes,it`s so unforgivable

 

We chould have double digit lead without those TOs.

I don't know how refs will call the game since Rockets already shot so many FTs.

 

Now it is up to us.

You know they will come out firing as they always do. You know they will be agressive. Now, if we come up with the energy level we came up in Game 2, we are done and it is 1-2 series. But if we play hard, competete, play defense we will probably take the lead.

I am worried, because we haven't done it in a while. They had quick start in 3rd and 1st quarter in game 2 and they started quickly as well in the 1st in game 3. Can we find answers?

 

i think he was voted the worst ball-handler among guards in a vote of nba players. not sure why y'all think he could run the point. the celtics certainly don't let him.

 

Cook is his best from his days in LA come into the NBA together

 

the last part id absolutely false.

 

Brooks and Artest need play better. Artest needs stop turn the ball over.

 

Weird energy to this game. I feel a nervous tension from both teams.

The third quarter looks to be pivotal again.

 

MAKE KOBE A DRIVER!!!

 

Links Anyone????

 

Patient, it's his 2nd year afterall, and it's the Lakers.
Kobe will get his usual 40, the key is defend other guys while Kobe can go as nuts as he wants. Artest and Scola has to step up in the 2nd half, right now it looks gonna be a long night for Rockets.

 

Yao is tired because the PGs tried to attack the basket and missed. Therefore, they are playing a fast paced game and having Yao run back and forth.
