    Why did adelman took out wafer?
    i felt like it was disrespect to wafer
    I mean adelman dont let him play during real game
    and now he takes him out from garbage time?

    mannnn

    oo and
    JAMES WHITE IS NOT NEXT VON WAFER
    guy cant shoot
    no D
    no offense
    and no basketball IQ

    if we let wafer go

    despite this loss, i'm still proud of this team.

    There's nothing to be embarrassed of with our 2 superstars being on the bench.

    it's more like brooks came out firing and nothing went down lol

    speaking frankly, i think we played fairly well. the biggest and most glaring issue is taking care of the ball, which we MUST do. the lakers defense wasn't that much better as they didn't close out on our shooters-- we got some decent looks and NOTHING was going down for us tonight. obviously the lane is way more congested and we have to accept we are not going to win the rebound battle, but we have to make all our shots to stay competitive.

    kobe is going to come out on game 6 as motivated as tonight, except this time with the aim of ending the series. we need to bring our a game.

    This is the worst game i ever saw about rox.
    But, at least Artest won't ask us large amount money for his contract.

    Think some good!
    I don't want this bad loss destroy my day.

    James White was aweful.
    Brian Cook's agent made a mistake about getting him into the NBA, it should've been WNBA.
    Scola performed the worst out of all. Talk about Mr. Consistent. I'd trade him + Brooks for Alridge any day.
    We need a backup C. Hayes isn't tall enough to play as backup. If he were 7 ft I think he would be the best defensive center in the league. Showed lots of passion today.

    So who played well?

    Hayesssssssssssssssssss

    Yes, because without these two the Rockets are a better team.

    Well, the good news for the Rockets is that they can't play much worse than this.

    Where did you get the idea that Artest won't ask us for a large amount of money?

    It's r****ded that people are comparing this game to the Dallas loss. Our guys played their hearts out. Damn, give our players some ****ing credit.

    We got beat by a way better team with way more talent, on the road.

    Anybody still remember that people expected Lakers to win in 5 WHEN WE HAD A HEALTHY YAO?

    Just because our team over-performed for a couple of games and give us the fans some false optimism, it's the team's fault for playing over their heads?

    Before this series started, would you have been happy if the Rockets pushed this to 6 games? And remember, we still have a very good chance of going the full 7.

    Let's put thing into some perspectives, people. I know this is CF and you're only as good as your last game, but all this bashing on our team is pathetic.
