ClutchFans Game Thread: Rockets @ Lakers 5/17/2009 (Playoffs Round 2, Game 7)

Right now it is even funny to watch. I realized we don't have Yao, Mac which is pretty sad, but on the other end because they are ALWAYS injured.

Thank you guys for all those great moments and see you nest season. Hopefully injuries will not hit us next year ( i don't belive it, though)

 

they rox gonna lose. i'm watching this game till the end regardless and suffer the torture. they deserve our support and they were not supposed to be playing this far to begin with.

 

I'll be rooting for Lebron in the finals.

 

Magic looks like he just ate a canary- that is annoying.

 

We must gamble now, put in the lineup Scola, Brooks, Wafer, Battier, and Brent Barry, so we can shoot 3s the rest of the game..

 

The two wins at home were fake, they knew it would be easy to win, so LA didn't try their best. Some idiots here considered it as we are a great time without Yao. Actually no Yao means no win on the road.

Now here comes the reality.




Hope we wont lose more than 40 points again.

 

Kobe Bryant is shooting 2-8.

 

I hope the Nuggets demolish these losers

 

As i said, Brooks is dumb!! When things go well...it makes him looks smart...but the fact is he is not a great PG because his vision and passing skills is horrible.

 

Exactly! The problem today isn't who was in the game, it's that the Rockets as a team weren't prepared to deal with the Lakers' pressure defense. They slacked off midway in the 2nd quarter after going up 20. Wafer did OK but it's already garbage time. When Wafer came in during the 1st quarter and the Lakers were still playing hard, he was awful.

The 1st half was a combination of a major choke-job by the Rockets combined with the Lakers playing tough defense. Add in the talent gap and you get a 20 point lead.

 

I'm guessing DD won't be trolling this time.

 

they already tried that and Gasol dunked on all of them

 

everyone needs to pick up that pitbull attitude and tear the lakers up. so what the game's in l.a so what we are down, WE ARE GONNA WIN THIS BABY!!!!!
LET'S GO ROCKETS!!!!

 

would like to see Brooks, Wafer and Landry start second half

 

The problem is that Barry was on the court and f-ing Artest kept shooting jumpers 1 step inside the 3pt line. Give Barry a chance to get his hand hot, and the Rockets can get in game in no time. The lakers, not including Kobe, are mentally weak. Put some pressure and take advantage. I'm sure RA will give them a good brainwash and maybe refresh their memory. IS the only thing he needs to do, he is doing a good coaching, and this team can overcome this situation, the thing is that they need to realize that.

 

I'm sure this already been touched on but we might as well give Wafer the green light to fire away. He seems to be in a rhythm and Lord knows, we can't score to save our lives. Might as well see if he can shoot us back into this one.

 

The inconsistency of Aaron Brooks continues. Oh well, there's always next season when Lowry starts.

 

well it's true. there's a reason they won 12 more games than we did and swept us in the regular season. and now we have no yao. they are better and the 2 times they've shown up to start the game, they've manhandled us. when they didn't show up, we manhandled them.

 

Artest and/or Scola is going to have to find their offense for us to have a chance.

Meanwhile, the Lakers' bigs are finally playing big. Their inside-out game gets going and the court opens up for everyone. Sigh.

 

Lol now i know why i don't post in the game threads. You guys are something else. one minute you love this team next min your turning on this team. come one guys. There is another half!!!!!!!!!!!!

btw does anyone know the Rockets all time record in game 7's
