    It sucks when the Rockets don't get a shot to win the game. It feels like it happens to them more than any other team.

    Why does Trever always drive into traffic,
    especially on a last second shot......

    on the other note,
    should have been a shooting foul when they fouled brooks

    We Will TIRE You (but Adelman goofed, I think).

    We Will TIRE You (but Adelman goofed, I think).

    Did you see Kobe? I think, for the first time ever, I saw him tired in the latter 4th quarter against a Rocket team.
    The Jazz were exhausted last game.

    Man, if we just get smarter...players and coaches: IMO there was no excuse for Landry sitting in the 4th and the majority of the OT.
    Adelman goofed there, I think.

    yep.

    Aaron lost us that game, all game he was making mistakes turning it over, giving up his dribble. Whether Ariza strip was clean or not, AB put him in a tough situation.

    GREAT EFFORT!

    Would've been greater if I didn't have to see Brian Cook.

    Damnit

    It's tough to see such a great effort slip away.

    Honestly, this one was lost in the 4th quarter. Adelman should have put Landry in for Chuck in the last two minutes. The offense was struggling, and the Lakers started doubling off of Chuck's screen.

    Bad ending.

    why is ariza our go-to-guy in the clutch?
    just an ugly game, but it was still fun watching them hang in there for 53 minutes vs the defending champs

    We actually did well with their size, sure we had some problems, but i dont think that put us in the situation we were in... just bad offense on the perimeter, no ball movement. not the same basketball they've been playing. It looked they even stopped pushing the ball at the end..

    Indeed. Plenty of time to execute a play. Either the players or RA went blank during the last 13 seconds.

    What a wasted effort from Chucky.

    last play is on brooks. can't afford to get trapped like that and not call a time out.

    Yes, it was. Brooks' baseline drive should've resulted in free throws. How they called that a no-shot foul is beyond me.
