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

series ain't over clowns.
but what the DEUCE is wrong with YAO?!!

 

I have noticed that Yao has never been consistent in two games, a 7'6" needs more time to rest than ordinary ppl

 

How? Please explain to me.

 

last year when yao went down tmac lead the rox to a 23 game streak
this year w/o tmac, yao went to the 2nd round
maybe yao and tmac cant play together
so what do we do?!

put tmac or yao on the 2nd team
we would be amazing

 

they should have called that all night...

now refs gonna make it good on the boxscore...

 

i don't know gasol has what all of ten points?

you're right he sucks...

and it matters at all that kobe blocked his shot? how many free throws to dwight howard miss tonight? i'll take yao getting blocked by a guard every now and then if he's also going to hit his foul shots. this isn't espn, i don't give a f#$k what his street cred is.

 

Apparently the guy has been playing hurt for most of the Q. I don't think he has been the problem tonight (though his bad 3rd Q didn't help, I admit).

 

I was wondering the same thing as I watched mutliple dunk attempts blocked tonight. Reminded me of earlier in the season when he had no lift and could not dunk the ball because of the knee injury he was recovering from

 

Which team is winning??? Yao is soft, turn over prone. Just admit it. The main thing that Yao does better is free throw.

 

Just told my moms she can stay ALL DAY on Sunday.

Happy Moms Day to all!

 

Agreed, the Rox do not have enough consistency on offense to beat the better teams.

14 points in the third quarter and 4 missed layups is inexcusable.

 

We are done. The Lakers have warmed up for the finals. we are just not that good.

 

Laker is better team. we have to face that.

 

I think Yao's done for the series, did you guys notice his right knee....it's HUGE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

I agree. I think it is time for rebuilding. Let's get a first round next season and let TMac contract expire

 

Yao is injured....take him out!!!!

 

great to see the Rockets actually wanted to play today

Adelman is a terrible coach. No reason to put in Artest in the 4th when Wafer was doing well scoring. Yao is way too inconsistent. Brooks was terrible. Artest jacking up 3's and playing one on one ball.

This series is over in 5

 

The difference between the two teams is that one executes the game plan consistently, the other panics and start jacking up shots.

 

brooks...wtf

 

This game is over, but we will win on Sunday.
