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

yeah yao is soft....

we're playing the lakers, orlando is playing a **** celtics team... this isn't even close.

 

He is off tonight

 

pretty much

we committed about 10 more turnover, that and the lakers hit over 50% from 3's, and rockets are at what? 30%? +18 for lakers in made 3's

 

yao is a warrior

 

turnovers will kill anybody.....and we are no different. Game 4 is ours though. Go H-town

 

No excuses. They kicked our butts tonite in every way imaginable. We did an admirable job trying to stay in it but it wasn't enough. We had too many turnovers and too many mistakes. We needed to use the homecourt to pull off a great game. We were unable to do that. Primarily, because of Kobe but all the Lakers showed up tonite. I'm not even upset because the Lakers just played a great game. They would have beaten any team in the league tonite.

 

Yao doesn't want to go out. he know this is an important game and he wants to be in there. He is not soft.

 

Yao seriously looks like he is in pain on the bench... wtf happened?

 

I really like Ron, but you can't win a championship with he and Brooks. This kind of crap happens to much.

 

we need a backup C

if only the father of time didn't get hurt :\

 

Season is OVER. Yao won't be able to play with that injury anymore this season.

 

brent barry 13 points in 33 seconds!!!

where are the tmac haters again?

 

Poor guy, you can see in his face how disappointed he is.

 

It's the TURNOVERS people!

Rockets: 15 TOs
Lakers: 5 TOs

The Lakers are good enough that we don't have to help them out. They score on half of those turnovers, that's their 10 point lead right there.

 

get barry on.

3 3's in a row and 3 turnovers by the fakers.



and what happened to yao? is it the knee or the ankle?

 

Why bring in scola for yao when u need 3's

 

We don't have a starting PG.

 

Um, I was talking about in general. Why the hell do you think I said I wish he would let them sit him out? I wholeheartedly agree. He can't contribute when he's hobbling around. Don't let your sour grapes turn you into an arrogant ass.

 

Maybe if its a miracle we can come back. Let's Hope if we hit threes and put pressure on them to hit free throws.

 

what do you care how many guards blocked his shot then? that makes absolutely no difference other than a missed shot.

how many free throws did dwight howard miss?

defense wins championships which is the exact reason we still have a chance to get one. yao is a huge part why that defense is so good. dwight and yao didn't play each other so one winning and one not isn't indicative of anything. orlando would get murdered by the lakers.
