    Powell gives us jack lately, time to bring out Drew and roll the dice with him Phil. These other scrubs like Powell and Sasha blow.

    Chuck Hayes has played phenomenal defense to start this second quarter.

    Barry's been refreshing. Artest needs to stop playing one-on-five though. Offensive rebounds are covering up for his misses but this can't go on.

    Gasol with five shots, and he's looking stiff. Come on man.

    And I could have sworn we got our asses handed to us in the first half, yet we're down three. Fortunate for us, this kind of play won't win us jack if we don't turn it around. I am disappointed.

    It's like a rerun of the regular season games. I wouldn't be too worried if I'm a Lakers fan.

    Re: Round 2: Lakers vs. Rockets Series Thread

    i think kobe will step it up in the second half, that is usually his gameplan against the rockeets, artest isnt going to outscore kobe for four games so im not worried, plus that is really the only difference maker in this series i believe, if artest can score more than kobe than rockets will have it, that is if they keep playing like they are right now and the lakers do the same, but we all know that wont happen because artest has hot starts in games, second half kobe will rule him.

    Re: Round 2: Lakers vs. Rockets Series Thread

    Hayes did own Pau on a couple of plays and he's just looked bad out there for the amount of minutes he's been on the court. Only bright thing I can say is that our D on Yao got a little bit better I guess.

    We have to do a bit more to make Artest into a chucker, he's in the zone right now. I want to see him put the ball on the floor more since he's a decent three point threat. I am just not impressed with LA at all right now, Kobe couldn't even practice at shootaround with that flu or whatever he has.

    Nice little run we had there! Kobe's FG is poor, though, but I still believe that we'll win this game, we kinda have the momentum atm.

    Gasol is 1 for 6. Maybe we should use more of Lamar. Ariza has silently scored 10pts, awwwsome

    Now the Rockets had a run. Kobe answered with a 3 of his own ! (to Artest)

    Oh no, Kobe with the 3, I don't want to see that. :(

    And im glad Bynum missed that mid range shot Yao is giving him.
