[Indazone]

Took the Spurs to the wire and now they are doing the same thing to Houston. 92-92 in OT

www.justintv/lev_20 (http://www.justintv/lev_20)

Driving me nuts

[TheMadHatter]

Lakers blew them out by 20.

[Indazone]

[Indazone]

96-94 Rockets 30 sec

[Indazone]

crap 96-96

[SpursDynasty]

Because the Spurs were without Manu.

Houston is at full strength and they just suck.

[Indazone]

at least they are showing some nice ass during the timeout lol

[Indazone]

Give the ball to Barry for the last shot!!

[turiaf for president]

roy just owned artest and tmac

[Indazone]

:depressedcrap..

Houston 96 Portland 99 on a last min shot.

[balli]

Cool shot.

[Xylus]

Roy with a HUGE jumper to put the Blazers up 2 with 1.9 seconds left.

98-96. Your move, McGrady.

[Indazone]

That was a stupid freaking shot by T-Mac

[Indazone]

oh there's still 1.9 sec..oh yeah..we can still win! riggggggghhhttt

[balli]

One lucky shot deserves another.

[Indazone]

holy shit...Yao just tied the game!!!

[Xylus]

WOW. Yao with an even BIGGER jumper to tie the game. Unbelievable. He was double teamed, too.

[balli]

oh there's still 1.9 sec..oh yeah..we can still win! riggggggghhht
:lol

[turiaf for president]

yao finally come through! that was huge

[IronMexican]

Way to take away all the hype for Sundays game.

[IronMexican]

Wooo!

[turiaf for president]

sick game

[Indazone]

Yao got fouled and made the extra pt too. Rockets by 1 with 0.3 sec left. lol

I can't believe we are gonna win this.

[Xylus]

I didn't really see the foul, but Yao hit the clutch free throw. Rockets up 1 with 0.8 seconds left.

[TheMACHINE]

wow....just wow.

[Xylus]

Oh My Fucking God.

[TheMadHatter]

Omg Are You Kidding Me!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[turiaf for president]

[turiaf for president]

how the fukkkk ewgdlkfhjwaelkgjaelwkjgfka wowww sick

[ace3g]

wow what a shot

[Indazone]

Wtf!

[IronMexican]

Lmao!

[TheMACHINE]

Havent seen a game like this since BLAZERS vs LAKERS 2003? Last game of the season.

[SpursDynasty]

Nice shot Roy.

So what happened, Houston? I thought you were supposed to be elite? No BS win tonight? Good going Yao, McGrady, and Artest.

[TheMadHatter]

Good God what an amazing finish. Heart-breaking loss for the Rockettes.

That's two losses in a row, potentially three in a row if they lose Sunday.

[boutons_]

wow, what clutch shots.

[TheMACHINE]

Better yet...fishers 0.4 lol

[turiaf for president]

tlong just got a hard on

[IronMexican]

So much for that hype to Sundays game. Blazers look like a playoff team now. Wouldn't be surprised if they were in the top 4.

[boutons_]

...

[Indazone]

That was messed up!

[J Zone]

lol Rockets

[Reck]

Holy shit. That was amazing.

I feel for the Houston fans. To lose like this is like sticking a knife in your chest. Damn.

[ace3g]

and that was with .8 sec funny how fisher can do more than that in movement in .4

[IronMexican]

Good God what an amazing finish. Heart-breaking loss for the Rockettes.

That's two losses in a row, potentially three in a row if they lose Sunday.

Potentially? We got that shit wrapped:hat

[turiaf for president]

both teams down the stretch shot after shot. Roys gonna be a good one

[Allanon]

Wow!

That was clutch.

[balli]

Havent seen a game like this since BLAZERS vs LAKERS 2003? Last game of the season.

I remember that game. 03-04 I think.

[Indazone]

Freaking Brandon Roy

[SpursDynasty]

Holy shit. That was amazing.

I feel for the Houston fans. To lose like this is like sticking a knife in your chest. Damn.

No need to feel sorry for the Houston fans. They are used to their team losing.

[Indazone]

:depressed:(

[Mad_Hatter]

wow 35 footer... cant do much but say nice shot.

yao sucked ass until hitting the clutch shot.

[IronMexican]

Now for the real question. Is LA that good, or is LA that good?:toast

[SpursDynasty]

Now for the real question. Is LA that good, or is LA that good?:toast

LA vs. Houston Sunday will be a junk game. Both suck.

[Matchman]

what more can you say about Roy? im convinced, hes a star in the making (if not already so). Great game Blazers

[balli]

Crazy. Three FG's and and FT within the last 3 seconds. Won't see another finish like that for a while.

[sexinthatsx]

They did review that Brandon Roy got the shot off in eight-tenths of a second, but what they didn't review was if the shotclock went off right when the ball was in brandon roy's hands. Which is another reason why derek fisher's 0.4 shot was an * and complete BULL FUCKING SHIT

[Xylus]

Seemed to me like Yao's shot took more than 1.9 seconds, but what do I know.

:lol, 4 years late forum.

[sexinthatsx]

this is a prime example that the NBA is run by monkeys (no racial discrimination intended)

[lil_penny]

clutch as hell!!! i thought it was over after the yao shot.... great game though to houston

[Mad_Hatter]

Seemed to me like Yao's shot took more than 1.9 seconds, but what do I know.

it did. they stopped the clock when he released it. the clock also didnt start when the rockets hit a FG with 40 seconds left added about 3-4 seconds. (blazers were at mid-court when it started)
clock also didnt start exactly on time when Roy touched it on the last shot.
but w/e it was a fun game to watch... not worried rockets still not playing good but staying in games.

the clock was supposed to stop when yao released his shot because it was a foul. but whatever, if we have to play the blazers down to the wire like that we dont deserve to win in the first place.

thats right... thanks.

cant wait til battier comes back. help out on poor defense. rockets still playing bad but staying in games. im not worried.

[Horry For 3!]

lol I was watchin the game and was like Are you fuckin serious!?!? when Roy hit the game winner. haha good shit

[bdictjames]

Roy absolutely made Artest look like a clown in the final plays

[turiaf for president]

^ hate to admit cuz i really like artest but yes. crossed him over nasty and the shot before yao made trip over tmac

[Kai]

Good God what an amazing finish. Heart-breaking loss for the Rockettes.

That's two losses in a row, potentially three in a row if they lose Sunday.

We actually play the Clippers on Friday.

[mVp]

This Roy guy sure is clutch, isn't he? I mean, he was shooting like shit, but those last shots were nothing but net... crazy game indeed.

[dirk4mvp]

:lmao

Suck a dick, rocketfan.

[Many PackYao]

:lmao

Suck a dick, rocketfan.
Gotta take it out of your ass first Mr. dirk4mp3:p: :lol

[RsxPiimp]

Roy absolutely made Artest look like a clown in the final plays

tmac guarded roy in that last play

[angelbelow]

they are incredible at home.

[m33p0]

unbelievable. no tlong appearance.

[Lakers_55]

LA vs. Houston Sunday will be a junk game. Both suck.

Both teams know how to win back-to-back championships too. Does yours?

[JordanL]

Portland season ticket holder here. :)

Would like to make two points about the Lakers game Portland played to put the two wins in perspective for you.

1. Portland was going into the game with a line-up that we hadn't practiced with at ALL in the preseason.

Blake
Roy
Outlaw
Aldridge
Oden

Outlaw is a great player, but he plays what I like to call Outlaw basketball. Outlaw basketball doesn't consist of driving, slashing, passing, defense, rotations or anything. Outlaw basketball consists of waiting for the other team to make a shot then taking a pull up 18ft jumper from the right side of the court.

He can make it quite a bit, but we might as well be playing 5 on 1. But when he's on fire, it all works out... so sometimes Portland will live and die by Outlaw's jumper, and McMillian hasn't decided to come down hard on him about it yet.

2. We played 13 minutes of basketball with a Center who was running on a sprained foot. This matters a LOT more than you think.

These two things combined would have guaranteed a loss against a team like the Lakers... add in off shooting from both Roy and Aldridge and you guarantee a blowout loss.

Now our next two losses we actually both had double digit leads in during the second half that we blew, and in both Outlaw played Outlaw basketball.

It was so bad after the Utah game, and the difference in his game tonight was so drastic that I can only imagine the coaches sat him down and grilled him... Because Outlaw came out trapping players on defense, slashing and moving on offense, and pulled down 13 rebounds.

I don't expect to lose more than one game against the Lakers this season, and not by more than 8.

:toast

The Spurs didn't lose against a team that much worse than the Lakers, we just had everything go wrong, and we're still gelling.

And man, I'm still loving that finish by Roy.

[Obstructed_View]

Lakers blew them out by 20.

You know, if your team were actually that good, you'd know it, and you wouldn't be out on the message boards politicking for validation.

[Obstructed_View]

Both teams know how to win back-to-back championships too. Does yours?

The Lakers have two players that have been on a championship team. It's more apporpriate to say that they know how to lose in the finals. :lol

[mrspurs]

Lucky win for the blazers, but the rockets could have made a better defensive move. The rockets will be fine. They are way ahead of the Spurs as far as getting the news guys into rhythm.

[dickface]

Both teams know how to win back-to-back championships too. Does yours?

Yeah I took a look at both those teams rosters and didn't see Hakeem, Robert Horry, Sam Cassell, or Shaq on any of them. So I'm thinking neither of those teams know how to win back to back championships.

[stretch]

then the rockets were lucky with yaos play too.

[Indazone]

That last shot should never have happened. He did not get the shot off in time. The time keeper sucked.

That being said. Addlehead played Yao over 40 minutes again. 41 minutes to be exact. We are going to be Yaoless by playofftime

[tlongII]

Brandon Roy is THE MAN! Just a terrific finish after sucking hard for most of the game. The Rockets are good and I think they'll beat the Lakers. We just need to stay afloat until we get Greg back and then we'll take off.

tlongs back! =D

and while i agree the rockets are good, you probably hope they win so the lakers get their 1st loss of the season

[Sissiborgo]

Portland are damn good..And the are playing without there star..

[ducks]

Lakers blew them out by 20.

first game at home for lakers
also portland bought into hype how good they are

if I was their coach I would have been pleased with the spanking lakers handed them

[ducks]

Portland are damn good..And the are playing without there star..

yeah
their star has played 33 games since highschool:rolleyes:rolleyes:rolleyes

Nope, just letting you know you got get it out of your ass first in case anyone does.:lolAnd what's with the fuck you Rockets fan out of nowhere?:wakeup

Okay..so Lakers dismantled your team and made them look like a JV team...then you say they will lose to a team that lost to you....

:lol:rollin

I'm talking about this year, not wins or losses prior to this season.The Blazers are only going to get better with the young talent they have.

[IronMexican]

We'll just have to wait and see then. Hopefully Oden is back and healthy by then.

[xtremesteven33]

I jumped out of my bed when i saw Roy make that shot....amazing

[TheMadHatter]

Lakers blew this team out by 20. They ain't shit.

Well, my reply was geared for the OP who insists on making nonsense threads, but I will answer both of you...

The Lakers have done repeats during 3 of their dynasties, and if you hadn't noticed, they have rebuilt. The franchise will win again, nothing indicates otherwise. Rebuilding is their history, they always have, they alwaus will. Houston also has accomplished something the Spurs haven't, won back-to-back.

Phil Jackson has coached Three threepeats. Kobe is the main cog in the wheel and the leader. He doesn't need Shaq to win a title, the rest of the team is > Shaq.

Boston could repeat this year, you can make a case for that. LA or Houston could win it all as well, and if either does, they will be a threat to win it again the following season. Maybe the Spurs can win this year, but will they be able to repeat at last? Less likely.

I figured I'd lurked and watched tlong enough. Have to represent regular Blazer fans. :P

[tlongII]

Portland is a scrub team with a bunch of second tier players that wont make the playoffs. The West will come down to San Antonio, Lakers, and Hornets. Houston still needs a coach.

Horrible post. We are going to give the Lakers are serious beat down. The Spurs are lottery bound.
