    Artest sucks. Dude can't make open shots. What good is he if he can't make open Js.

    we def. miss tracy and yao in this game obviously. we clearly have no clue what plays to run -> lack of a playmaker. and we clearly don't have a consistent post presence to control the tempo -> lack of a center.

    the thing is i'm flabbergasted at the play of ron. in the last 2 possessions, he looks shook. he's supposed to be our toughest player and he's not playing like one.

    it's only 14 pts. i still believe. keep plugging. cut it down to 8 going into the half.

    I don't know why Adelman is playing Artest instead of Wafer. Wafer scoring is needed. Artest suck!!

    This is to all those bitter posters or hating fans out there who seriously tried to make an argument that we don't need Yao and even T-Mac.

    We could be using their help right about now.

    Rather lose by 40 than a heartbreaker at the end...and with Joey Crawford in the house, there is no way the Lakers would lose a close game.

    It was a good season...but injuries cut the season short once again. Yao would have a difference in this series......

    Till next year....

    What can you say when your offense is coming from Chuck? I don't understand the logic of putting Von Wafer in for 5 seconds only to put Artest back in. He's 0-4, including air balls, and Adelman doesn't realize it.

    Can't even blame the ref's for this one guys. Our offense is in shambles and Artest left his jumper in Houston....
