    Who the fuck is supposed to be guarding Shane? You'd think after hitting all those shots the least you could do is put a fucking hand in his face. This team is retarded.

    LOL DOWN 18 at half.

    Awesome.

    Did Pau and Kobe get on the car ride to the stadium?

    I swear, Ariza was the only one showed up.

    Okay. Houston has stuck around and stuck it to us longer than I thought they would. Initially, I thought they were just running on Adrenaline so far. Awesome game by them so far.

    Phil must realize Shannon is our best option and start him out of the gate in the 2nd half. If he doesn't, he needs to bring him in as soon as Fisher gets burned. Gasol needs to demand the ball and work. You are fucking 7'1, stop getting owned by these douche bags.

    Kobe, get to the mid range game. Your on fire from there, stop shooting long two's.

    We're down 18. This is still manageable, especially with Kobe. We need to trim this lead down by 6-10 points by the end of the third. It shouldn't be hard to win a quarter, get it done. If we can go into the 4th down by 8-12 points, we'll be in a good position. If we let them maintain this lead, or worse, even build on it, we're fucked and this is going at least 6.

    Still manageable. Go into the 4th down by 8-12 and we can strike, if not, yeah it is over.

    Think the game in Cleveland earlier this year. We were down 11 at half I think, and over took them in a quarter.

    It is a lot, but it can be done.

    Cleveland has played no one, the Rockets record is ever better than it was after T-Mac left their team man. We're playing real opponents, we just need to show up on both sides of the ball.

    Cleveland isn't a high-powered, attacking, young athletic offense. We'd be able to handle them.

    The playoffs come down to matchups. Houston's young guns match up with us good. We struggle against young, athletic teams like this that can run the court and score in bunches against us. Portland and Charlotte are two that ring a bell.

    Battier, Brooks, Artest are bad matchups? I think we've rotated poorly on them and Fish is not helping. Hayes and Landry will not go off on us, we're just having a bad night.

    If we make a run here to start the 3rd, we're in this.
