Incredible. Landry you're my hero. Here is chron.com heartstopping description of the last minute of the game:
I heard Stern on the radio today saying that the NBA will look into punishing floppers next year similar to what happens in Soccer.
Yes please, I need a new desktop background. If I were him, I would frame that tooth and put it in my trophy case. But that's just me.
With the way the defense had been clamping on him previously, and the way his elevation and release was good on the previous 2, i had no problem with that shot. It wasnt a deep 3, which is the common criticism. The shot after that he was fouled with of course no call.
I can't believe the Rockets won, but they did. Refs were in the Jazz pockets for most of the game, but we got a bunch of calls in the 4th. Why is TMac so stupid, though? On the last few offensive possessions, with the Jazz in the penalty, he is shooting fade away jumpers to avoid contact!! What a MORON! He almost lost the Rockets the game. Ugh.
Could not have said it better myself...I'm so proud of this team. They could have easily given up, realizing they were down 0-2 going to Utah where they are incredibly tough. Hats off to Rafer/Landy/T-mac..heck the whole rockets team, even scola, everyone played their butt off.
Straight up classic. Rambo was clutch man, he hit his throws tonight. Everyone was huge. Great win, ain't over yet.
Will somebody please give some credit to Rafer? Yes Landry had the game winning block, but Rafer was the difference maker throughout this game. Welcome back Skip.
Yes, the shot selection was bad, however, you have to look at it in his point of view. If he were to drive, and get a little slap on his arm, that might affect his shot, the refs were not going to call it with so little time on the clock. He shot that shot because he knew he would get a clean release without anyone fouling him.
