    If Kobe gets hurt, I'll be disgusted. Why the hell did Phil put him in?

    Any news on Odom?

    Wish we had another 2 minutes.

    Brown has been arguably a top 3 player for us in the playoffs.

    We've outscored them by 14 this quarter.

    Too little too late. Just shows you what we are capable of though, IF we play hard.

    Like you said in the Rockets forum, we can turn it on when we want.

    Why the fuck did we not want to earlier in the game?

    Well...whatever, at least get it to single digits to make it look better.

    Get the next 2...and hope the Nuggets are taken to 6.

    Phil Jackson deserves to be fucking fired if he starts Fisher next game.

    Shannon has won that spot.

    Re: Round 2: Lakers vs. Rockets Series Thread (Series tied 2-2)

    Last year, the Celtics got pushed to 7 in their first two series of the playoffs.

    I'm not going to lie, since game 1, I haven't had a good feeling about this series. Seeing us lose to a team we should beat was disheartening and made me worry, but I got over that after games 2 and 3. Game 4 has brought back that empty feeling.

    What a horrible game. There was NO DEFENSE played at all. They just stood under the basket hoping for the Rockets to miss their shots. Also the refs let some calls go but I'll give the Rockets some credit cause they were on fire throughout the game. But they played to win and the Lakers didn't. They didn't show up.

    Re: Round 2: Lakers vs. Rockets Series Thread (Series tied 2-2)

    Should be harder, not impossible. I don't even know what to expect honestly from game 5. Big game from Kobe? Lakers win? Rockets win? Close game?

    It would seem that Lakers would come back with a punch .. but we'll just have to wait 2 days.

    (and someone posted something about Fisher and Bynum doing the shoulder thing or something like that) ... can someone fill me in?

    Shoulder thing?

    I expect LA to handle their business in LA.

    I think we'll come back to Houston up 3-2. It'll be interesting to see how that game goes.

    I expect Odom to disappear, but where's Bynum?

    I think you need to look at little Brooks first, that was embarrassing but we cut the lead at least.

    They say Odom will be out of Monday's practice, how does that look?
