OH MY GODDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD!!!!!!!!!!!! I AM SO HYPE RIGHT NOW. JUST GOT BACK FROM A WINE TASTING WATCH PARTY. KOBE IS A BROAD!!! WE GOING 7 BABY. I NEVER BELIEVED. THIS IS UNBELIEVABLE. THIS TEAM HAS SUCH HEART. BEAT LA!! BEAT LAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA (yes all CAPS necessary)
I was there.....first time going to a ROX playoff game.....how did we sound on ESPN.....we were loud....section 406 was standing the whole 4 qtr......
I think Richard Justice on his tweet may have said it best: "If you can't admire these undermanned and undersized Rockets, you don't understand sports and competition." It has been a great pleasure and a great honor to watch this undermanned, undersized Rockets team! This is teamwork at it's best, going against one of the leagues best teams undermanned and STILL COMPETING. These Rockets are amazing, and their heart is unmatched in the league. Go ROCKETS! Let's take game 7!!!
agree,agree,agree.won the 4th quarter was a real win.RA and AB seem like more comfortable coaching and playing without Yao. this rockets team are getting big improvement at full speed right now. and hopefully the speed of this improvement is fast enough to win the 7th game!!! at least they will have a bright future in next season. go rockets!!!
Clutch City baby! I moved out to LA in March and the radio announcers were talking like it was a given the Lakers were gonna win tonight. Comeuppance is the word. And all these people keep sleeping on Scola. They take a look at how he's not very athletic and write him off. What they don't get is that he's incredibly smart, tough, and has won a world championship.
Daryl Morey, the man who should be Executive of the Year two times over, probably needs an extension if he manages to pull off something this off season, either securing Artest and Wafer for decent money or managing to get us another gem in the rough off the street. Great game for everybody, but Brooks, Scola and Landry were superb out there.
The crowd was great! The announcers mentioned in the 1st quarter how the crowd needed to pace themselves.
This year or next year? However I am already satisfied with our Rockets, whatever the results of Game 7 may be.
The only team that may come close to it is Boston. What is amazing about us is that we have inexperienced guys like Aaron Brooks, Scola and Landry that are making big plays while Boston lost one of their star players but they still have two legit star experienced players in Paul Pierce and Ray Allen.
I'm watching the post-game vids.... kobe... pao... phil... .. ya know.. I don't think they comprehend that they now face elimination. Remember that pic of the Mavs fans that had that look on their face like "now what do we do?" after they lost? somebody post that pic. I'd like to see that look on the Lakers' fans.
New nickname: Luis Scolajuwon! I can't sleep already thinking about game seven. I can't freakin wait!
We will beat L.A. And L.A. doesn't deserve the NBA final game. They don't stand a chance of beating Nuggets..
