Can't say enough about the Rockets, being able to force a game 7 being so underhanded. I know the focus will be all on how the Lakers didn't show up,...
There was fox sports community blog about it a year ago, by I guess some Laker fan. He quotes a number of different sources to show that its illegal...
Laker fans, what is your opinion on the way Shane Battier contests Kobe's jump shots? Do you consider that a good defensive tactic, or do you think...
Hack a Hayes is actually a very sensible strategy, but you don't want to do it too early or you put the Rockets in the penalty. Once the Lakers get...
A nice writeup as usual from Hollinger. I've heard a lot of talk after the game about how the Lakers didn't show up. Not much focus on the resiliency...
Jackson isn't showing any more loyatly to Fisher than any coach would show to a veteran. Adelman was the same way with Rafer, throughout his...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FVca1DOskEw I loved this. :lol:
I was surprised Kobe Bryant wasn't more assertive offensively when he got in there. Actually, the entire second half he played like the game was...

Re: [Fox 26] Yao is done for the playoffs Thanks. The Rockets need to figure out if he's a guy they can ever depend on for a long playoff...

The Rockets will make a decision tomorrow on it. I read a rumor on another board that he's out, though.
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.
That sentence on its own is ambiguous. It either means (1) the refs have the discretion of calling one or the other, or (2) it means the refs also...
The league takes elbow fouls seriously. If its done with intent and makes contact, that's typically going to be ruled a flagrant foul. What its...
Props to the Lakers this game. No dirty plays, not taunting. They just kicked the Rockets butt, on the road.
