Post-Game Analysis: Lakers 111, Rockets 98

Shortfuse3 wasn't breast fed!

 

Man Im proud of the Rockets effort tonight. turnovers are a big concern, but the heart the Rockets showed was unbelievable. also, ron artest needs to learn to keep his cool. hes kept it throughtout this whole season. the game was still winnable when the ejection came. i expect the Rockets come up firing in game 3. lets kick kobe and the lakers a**.

 

Yao should be benched if he play the first passive minute.
when you are -29, you does not deserve the ball and playing time.

 

refs are masters!!!

 

Rockets fans going to games 3 and 4 need to turn the Toyota Center into the most hostile homecourt in the NBA, for both the Lakers and the refs.

 

Horrible loss.. I expected a loss.. but all this extra stuff is crap. Especially Von... that was pure stupidness.

 

He got into early foul trouble and couldn't get going. Besides was probably still tired from the previous game.

Judge him based on the next game. otherwise get off his nutsack.

 

Can the mods ban this guy?...

All he does is clueless insult.

 

Adelman is fired up. Lets blow them out at Toyota center

 

Yao is going to have to figure out Gasol somehow. The entire starting lineup has to figure out how to play better, both defensively and offensively.

The Rockets got bullied by the Lakers and lost their poise, but they still fought really hard. Time to dish it back out in Game 3.

 

I think this game was still close when Lowry's layup and one was destroyed by the Ref! They made it an offense foul on Lowry, not an and 1
LW was standing on the line clearly which is much more sure a defence foul than the 4th fould on Yao made by the fxxking refs.

Then, the Raper Byrant elbowed Artest, it turned out to be an offense fould, too!
After that, we have lost the game, but we lost to the Refs, not the Fakers!!


If we dont trade Aron·It's on me·Brooks, we will never win the champion. You can book my words now.
All Brooks can do is waste his teammates efforts, espcially Yao's.
Damn, all Yao and Artest's efforts were in vain.

 

Brooks and Lowry need to grow up quick! They better be fast learner after this loss.

 

We should have sent the Lakers a message tonight.

Kobe talked **** all night long.

Kobe elbows Artest in the Throat.

Kobe showboats by throwing it off the backboard.

Odom talked **** to Scola all night long.

Sasha tried to talk come at Scola and somebody else I forgot who it was in the 1st half.

Should have laid somebody out tonight.


Now that I got that out of the way. We came to L.A. and did what we was suppose to do and that was steal a game. Lets go to Houston and take care of home court. Show them we are not backing down.

 

I don't like seeing Yao guarding Paul Gasol. Paul is just too quick for him, last game he's guarding Bynum which he did well. When Lakers go small, I don't mind seeing Yao in the bench just to avoid the mismatch.

RA gotta figure this puzzle out

 

So you mean "ubigred" is a son of trash b****, don't you?

 

so what's the most frustrating thing in tonite's game?
1) Kobe's elbow that leads to Ron's ejection
2) Yao's performance
3) RA sends Von to the locker room
4) Refrees
5) Dirty performance by the Fakers



i can't start a thread, so i decide just to post the poll in the post-game analysis thread

 

The game was not winnable because the refs already handed it to the fakers. It was so predictable that they'd take Yao out of the game from the begining, but I am proud the second unit got us back. Ron should have just fell down holding his throat instead of doing anything else and asked for a strecher t get off the court. That will force them to review the tape and see that elbow to throat.

 

Brooks needs to run up and down and change tempo. When he goes side to side, he always makes terrible decisions.
He should run change tempo and shoot.

He is just too inconsistent now and is not patient to pass the ball to Yao. As soon as he sees him covered, he just turn and starts running from side to side.

 

Its really interesting hearing Charles Barkley and Kenny Smith completely defending us right now.

 

refs by a mile
