    The Rockets are at home and they are angry. They will make sure they are on top throughout and at the end of the game.

    The Lakers dug their own grave by playing like assholes. Scola, Brooks, Artest, Landry, and Yao are coming to play.

    The Rockets are shooting themselves in the damn foot late in this second quarter. Turnovers and poor defensive rebounding will kill you. They're getting all these stops, but they're not even giving themselves a chance to score. Frustrating, this team is.

    Props to the Lakers this game. No dirty plays, not taunting. They just kicked the Rockets butt, on the road.

    Can't exactly talk when you're losing...

    Series isn't over though, Rockets will fight back. Still need to win 2 games, but I'm loving the intensity and excitement of this series.

    Intensity? There was intensity tonight? It seemed like a cake walk for us.

    You Rocket fans sure are quiet when you get your ass handed to you. (Umair, Pakman).

    Durvasa, do you live in the Houston area? Any word on Yao?

    We have lives unlike you. We just got home from watching it over at a friends.

    We don't sit at home every single game with a laptop in our lap doing a play-by-play for forums because we have no friends to talk about the game to. Once in a while, we watch it with friends - especially playoffs.

    Sportstwo might be your life, but I'm here for the playoffs when I'm bored and in need of a game discussion. Thank you.

    And Rockets lost tonight straight up. Sorry I had to call you out like that but its necessary, and its nice to go out and enjoy the game with friends once in a while, try it.

    No one does the play-by-play all the time, and Mamba took the day off.

    Let's relax a little bit everyone here. ;]

    Yao is a very dangerous player, we had to work hard to stop him. The West isn't a conference to be played around with, good game tonight guys.

    Good fair game dude. But what the fuck, seriously, that's like the worst ejection I've seen in my life. Like seriously? He didn't even intend to knock him down on purpose. Gasol landed harder than he was even pushed. It was a hard foul but ejection? Wtf?

    It was downgraded to a flagrant-1, which sounds about right to me. The game was essentially over at that point, so the ejection didn't really hurt us.

    rockets stopped running our offense in the 3rd quarter....I honestly don't understand why Adelman doesn't post up either Yao, Scola, or Artest on every play.....the lakers interior defense is wack and we're only letting them off the hook when we jack up jumpshots "tmac style".....and aaron brooks has been down right pathetic the last couple of games....if he's not going to be in attack mode then adelman needs to bench him. WAAAAAAAAY too many turnovers.

    by the way, I'm not giving up on this team. If we play basketball the way we "should" play I honestly think we can play with and beat anyone in this league.

    Go Rockets!

    Uhm, was I posting during the game? I actually didn't post until about an hour after the game.

    Just wanted to here your input on the guaranteed victory you guys were supposed to have.

    I didn't even think it was a flagrant I.

    Artest's reputation is coming back to bite him in the ass this series so far.

    I thought Artest clearly got the ball first.

    It was clearly a foul. Are you just saying he got ball first, or are you trying to say that wasn't a foul? Even Artest said it was a foul.
