The Rockets will be ready for what the Lakers will do early in the game next time. The game will be close down the Lakers will feel the pressure and the Rockets will win by 6.
The Lakers are playing scared now. The Rockets have shaken them. I told you guys this Laker team was mentally weak. I knew portland had helped us hone our edge and I knew we'd be a problem for these Lakers. Make no mistake, this Laker team is a very good team. And they are the best team in the league....if the Lakers survive this round they will win the championship. But game 5 will be no gimme - it's going to be a nasty game. The Lakers will be buoyed by their home court, the Rockets bouyed by their success today and their belief in themselves. Who will win? Whomever is mentally tougher. Who do you think that is right now? There are reasons to smile Rockets fan. Little reasons like Aaron Brooks and Chuck Hayes!
i did, too. spoiled kids type, thanks to david stern and his minions. (same may be said to lebron's cavs, btw. everything comes too easy for the chosen one.)
The question now is Can the Rockets sustain that energy. Can they bring it on the road. The Lakers will be going hard at them from the start of game 5. How will the Rockets respond? Lets hope they can bring the same mentality in game 4 to game 5 and 6.
thats laughable. u and leebigez do that on many occasions. anyway we beat la without 2 of our stars and without a center!! no time for fightng amomgst ourselves. lets take the next game!!
laugh all you want. whatever. you brought trouble (almost) to me last night. leebigez and i actually disagree with each other more than the other way, but at least we come talking str8 bball.
thats the problem with u. u like to insult n harrass anyone who has a different opinion. and i dont kno wat u talkin bout last nite. u were obviously tryin to condescend to another poster. even ur reply to me rite now is "pompous and faggoty" - idiocracy "at least we talk str8 ball." and i will still take yao over karl malone or ewing. anyway we won! lets hope to steal one in la. peace
did i offend you in any way? i really want to know. maybe i could have done better. but i am really having a tough time to catch where you come from. i like to insult and harass anyone with a different opinion? give me one good example, please. but... anyway we won! lets hope to steal one in la. peace
This series is certainly over if the Rockets dont play smart. At this point, both teams know each fairly well. Lets look at the basics, the lakers have size we dont. The way to counter the size is to drive to the basket, play team ball, and get their big guys in foul trouble early. Of course, the point guards cant turn the ball over as much as they have in this series. Scola, Battier, and Artest have to play huge and smart. Artest needs to stop shooting if hes not having a good night. The rockets also need to feed the hot hand. Our strategy should be let Kobe score all the points and keep their other guys from scoring. Again the Rockets are a passionate group of players, but they need to play yes I'm going to say it again "Smart" or this series is most defenitely over.
OVER??!?!?! haha. The Rockets WILL win these next 2 games. THESE rockets are tough, these rockets WILL NOT be beaten. The refs may try to kill us in game 7, but we have overcome adversity before. The Rockets will overcome. Noone will beat us. Not LA, Not Denver, and NOT Cleveland. Your 2008-2009 NBA CHAMPION - HOUSTON ROCKETS
