Game 1: Lakers vs Rockets

[benefactor]

lol Artest.

[timtonymanu]

Barry 333333!

[lil_penny]

I want artests haircut

[lefty]

Barry 3

[Spursfan092120]

Fucking Bynum.

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

Lakers got a false sense of confidence from the JAZZ series.

[resistanze]

Shoot the fucking ball, Rockettes.

[YellowFever]

Bynum needs to sit his ass down.

[The Franchise]

Come on Landry!!

[Bob Lanier]

:lmao at Bynum's soft fat ass

[sook]

WTF Landry!~!~!

You used to be a dunking beast!

You suck now :(

[Lars]

Lakers look like garbage, hard to believe no other team plays legit defense.

[resistanze]

BYNUMITE?

lol

[benefactor]

Great pass by Barry...horrible catch by Landry.

[iggypop123]

looks like it will take a half to shake off rust

[j-money24]

Bynum really really sucks.

[DrHouse]

Wow Kobe is just awful.

Sit back on the bench if you're going to continue to not play defense. This is why you didn't win MVP you dumb motherfucker.

[BUMP]

it sucks cause i really want Houston to win but i know how Kobe goes and he is just toying with them. Lakers will win like 99-94 or something like that:depressed

[Bob Lanier]

The Rockets offense looks twice as good with Barry in the game as without it, even if he can't hit a single three-pointer.

He's the one guard on their roster other than Battier who actually can and wants to pass the ball.

[DrHouse]

Bynum is focusing way too much on his offense. He doesn't realize that the team doesn't NEED his offense, they need his defense.

[IronMexican]

Wow Kobe is just awful.

Sit back on the bench if you're going to continue to not play defense. This is why you didn't win MVP you dumb motherfucker.

Don't hurt Medvedenko's feelings like that:cry! Kobe is the GOAT!

[E20]

We all know Kobe is sick, but I gotta give some cred to the Rockets. If they win this game, I think they have more than a chance to win this series.


Damn I predicted the Rocks in 6 let's see what happens lol

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

looks like it will take a half to shake off rust

Phil will adjust, I'm pretty sure of it.
Also Houston isn't a juggernaut anyway.

[Cant_Be_Faded]

God please shatter kobe's knee
please

[benefactor]

it sucks cause i really want Houston to win but i know how Kobe goes and he is just toying with them. Lakers will win like 99-94 or something like that:depressed
They mentioned something about that already...how the games were close and LA executed better late in the game to win. We'll see if Houston learned anything.

[sook]

Wow Kobe is just awful.

Sit back on the bench if you're going to continue to not play defense. This is why you didn't win MVP you dumb motherfucker.

wtf?!?! :lol

[Spursfan092120]

Bynum is focusing way too much on his offense. He doesn't realize that the team doesn't NEED his offense, they need his defense.
He just airballed a hook shot...that's not focusing too much.

[YellowFever]

Bynum and Farmar for Vaughn and Bonner...any takers?

[Banzai]

rockets brought their A game.

[Mad_Hatter]

bet Spurs wish they had scola planting trees and shit in san antonio

[Cry Havoc]

No one should ever be able to shoot a nice and easy jumper over Yao Ming from 8 feet out.

[YellowFever]

bynum is focusing way too much on his offense. He doesn't realize that the team doesn't need his offense, they need his defense.

+1

[spursfan09]

Exam Finals suck! I can't even watch basketball :(

[resistanze]

Yao needs to BACK DOWN Bynum.

[Spursfan092120]

Bynum and Farmar for Vaughn and Bonner...any takers?
Pop just called Phil...in a heartbeat..

[iggypop123]

haha barry we can all hear you

[Spursfan092120]

If the Lakers win this game with Kobe MIA, they are going to win this thing in 5.

[Cry Havoc]

Wow, crazy play by Barry.

[benefactor]

Anyone else think the cameramen are waaaay too damn close to the basket?

[IronMexican]

Has Pau even posted up this game? dude shrivels up in the playoffs.

[lefty]

Actually, it was a clean play by Barry :wow

[The Franchise]

Yao needs to BACK DOWN Bynum.

He's playing like a real sissy.

[Mad_Hatter]

kobe has that "what foul on me?" face down to a T.

[Spursfan092120]

Kobe does not look good..look at his eyes...looks like he just woke up...looks really sick.

[DrHouse]

:lmao at Rocket fans complaining about the refs.

The Lakers are getting ZERO home cooking thus far. They didn't get it in the 1st round either, Utah shot more F/T's for the series.

[TheProfessor]

They're calling this game pretty tightly. Thrown the Lakers off early.

[YellowFever]

He's playing like a real sissy.

Oh yeah?
Well our center is more of a pussy than yours...so there!

[lefty]

Lol

[Lars]

I'm about sick of these lazy passes by our perimeter players.

[Mad_Hatter]

Gary got Tea-bagged

[Spursfan092120]

cameraman thread.

[ElNono]

I like what Adelman did, moving Artest on Odom.

[Cry Havoc]

I love Battier. By far my favorite Rocket.

[iggypop123]

turnovers no 3 pointers. how are we only down 6?

[DrHouse]

Rockets need to take advantage of the Laker rust.

I can guarantee you they will not play this badly in the 2nd half.

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

this game is ugly

[Spursfan092120]

Come on Kobe...wake the fuck up...

[resistanze]

I was hoping Ariza would go Rodman on the camera man.

[sook]

this is the type of Game i have stressed between these 2 teams. Fortunately the lakers are shooting pure azz right now

[Bob Lanier]

Ariza thinks he's a lot better than he is.

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

I love Battier. By far my favorite Rocket.

I wish he played for the Spurs :depressed

[Cry Havoc]

:lmao at Rocket fans complaining about the refs.

I've seen missed calls on both sides. No home cooking for L.A. though, agreed. Rocket fans should be happy about the non-issue of officiating thus far.

[Banzai]

true.

The only call I didn't like was the lose ball foul on Yao, it was ticky tack and isnt necesary for a playoff game. It gave him his second and sent him the bench. Lammeeee

[The Franchise]

turnovers no 3 pointers. how are we only down 6?

Because we're not taking advantage.

no rockets fans are complaining. Its FAIR as i have said. There was one particular game this season it wasn't however. The one where Von Went off like craz

[davi78239]

What Exactly Is Wrong With Kobe? Is He Really Sick?

[IronMexican]

The Rockets are just making their shots right now. But what's gonna happen when those shots aren't falling anymore?

[YellowFever]

I'll really start to worry if the Lakers play this way in the 4th.

You gotta expect some rust.

I was so pissed when they lost the first game to Sixers after they blew out the Spurs back in 02 I think it was.

[j-money24]

yup this game is boring and ugly.

[benefactor]

Come on Kobe...wake the fuck up...
Spurs fans who root for Kobe for any reason are failures. No exceptions.

[Artest_Is_Fearless]

Man Yao need to wake the fuck up if he want to win a game this series. the dude is a giant walking pussy out there!

[BUMP]

it sucks cause i really want Houston to win but i know how Kobe goes and he is just toying with them. Lakers will win like 99-94 or something like that:depressed

[resistanze]

Kobe = pussy. Do we even know if he's sick? All I keeping hearing is 'sore throat.' I have a sore throat before I brush my teeth in the morning.

[Spursfan092120]

[Cry Havoc]

I hate the term "role player". Like it's less important. Was Bowen a "role player" for our last 3 titles? I would classify him as every bit as essential as anyone except maybe Duncan.

Get ready...because it's gonna be an ugly series.

[Spursfan092120]

Lakers a little rusty..they'll wake up.

[The Franchise]

That's what you do Yao!!!

[Spursfan092120]

Nice shot Fish..I fucking hate you, but nice shot.

[Cry Havoc]

Watching this, Yao Ming is a MASSIVE mismatch for L.A. They have absolutely no way to contain him other than a double. Reminds me of Duncan a bit the way he's playing.

[IronMexican]

Did Kobe make a shot?

[Bob Lanier]

Look at that crisp pass from Barry.

That is how you fucking set up a center! Good job Adelman.

[benefactor]

I hate the term "role player". Like it's less important. Was Bowen a "role player" for our last 3 titles? I would classify him as every bit as essential as anyone except maybe Duncan.
It's just a classification. I put it that way mostly because I can't say that I would rather have over any player in the league. :)

[Cry Havoc]

Lakers now literally "screaming" to get calls. :lol

[DrHouse]

FUCKING refs are TERRIBLE.

Calling every foul late, waiting until a player gets thrown to the floor before blowing the whistle. What a joke.

[Spursfan092120]

God..Pao is so soft..come on dude...get some toughness..

[RobSM64]

dang, does Gasol have to scream all the time?

[DrHouse]

This game has ZERO flow.

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

Yao's the kind of player that's good/special enough to earn respect from other team's fans....but not frustratingly good where fans will start to hate on him outside of his own....thankfully.

[Bob Lanier]

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy yyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy

[Spursfan092120]

Hopefully Kobe will wake up a bit...

[Indazone]

Rockets just gotta steal one game in Staples then the homecourt advantage won't be in the Lakers hands anymore.

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

This game has ZERO flow.

Yes it's disjointed and ugly.

[IronMexican]

Lakers dodged a bullet with that shot clock there.

[Cry Havoc]

Wow, a couple of horrible officiating calls there that went in favor of L.A. Yao and Shane both shoot airballs and you're telling me there's no contact? Mmkay.

[Indazone]

The game has zero flow because the Rockets defense is designed for ugly games.

[Spursfan092120]

This game has ZERO flow.
Good news for the Lakers..Rockets need the game to move to stay in it.

[Banzai]

Who started the mo-hawk trend..Amare?

[Spursfan092120]

Pao got smacked in the face..no call..shit.

[Cry Havoc]

FUCKING refs are TERRIBLE.

Calling every foul late, waiting until a player gets thrown to the floor before blowing the whistle. What a joke.

Have you noticed that they're letting contact go on both ends?

[DrHouse]

Rockets are hitting a lot of BS shots. When those stop falling the Lakers should come back.

Right now the Rockets have to be worried the lead is only 4.

[The Franchise]

Stop settling Yao!!!

[Libri]

sloppy sloppy

[Spursfan092120]

Battier all up on Kobe's jock so far.

[benefactor]

lol TNT making excuses for Kobe sucking right now.

[iggypop123]

nice flop. adding to the bs

[DrHouse]

Kobe has thus far had two games in the post season playing like utter garbage. The Lakers can't survive his horrid play against GOOD teams.

He needs to wake up or else the Lakers will lose this game.

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

Pao got smacked in the face..no call..shit.

He was acting.

[resistanze]

Bynum, "I cant wait to play Yao" yeah right you bum.

:lol He's such a bum.

He'll be fine...he made his last couple of shots...

[Mad_Hatter]

Laker fans seem to only have 1 chant. "houston sucks"

[Lars]

Im pretty happy with our play so far. Need a few less turnovers, and keep up the intensity on defense and this is a very winnable game.

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

lol TNT making excuses for Kobe sucking right now.

it's ridiculous. Collins is gay for Kobe. fuck him.

[Cry Havoc]

Kobe looks like he's only half-interested in this game. Very lackadaisical until that last shot.

[IronMexican]

Down 3 after a SHITTY half? I'll take it.

[DrHouse]

2nd half predictions.....

Rockets start missing some shots.
Kobe gets hot.
Lakers roll.

lol...dude..looked pretty real to me.

[iggypop123]

down by 3. i dont know how but might as well take it

[mavs>spurs2]

Did anyone else notice Kobe and Gasol both scream to sell the foul on the same possession? Since when is it automatically a foul if you yell like a dumbass..

[resistanze]

Kobe looks like he's only half-interested in this game. Very lackadaisical until that last shot.

Must be the sore throat.

[YellowFever]

What I want to know is....just how in the hell are we down only by 3 at the half??

[sook]

wow wtf. Aaron Brooks wtf and Scola wtf. Step your fucking game up

[Banzai]

down 3..I'll take it even after how crappy the Lakers have been playing lol

[Spursfan092120]

He's pretty sick man..

[it's me]

the rapist is actually hateable

[TheProfessor]

Lakers shooting under 40%, but only down by three.

[davi78239]

so this so called "ugly game".......I guess this is how people felt about the Spurs back when we were good right? Slow, grind it out defensive games....

[Spursfan092120]

I fucking hate Ron Artest..

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

Down 3 after a SHITTY half? I'll take it.

yes, Lakers are in a comfortable position. Rockets better watch out.

Artest scares me a bit. He seems to have the Mike Tyson "I'm about 2 seconds and a small brainfark away from literally ripping this announcers throat out and eating it and then attempting to fornicate with every woman in the crowd" syndrome.

[Bob Lanier]

Good game. :tu

[DAF86]

this is the type of Game i have stressed between these 2 teams. Fortunately the lakers are shooting pure azz right now

Give the Rockets a lot of credit, they've always a hand in the face of the shooter, is no coincidence that most games teams shoot awful against them.

It's different because there's no flow. Both teams are making mistakes and poor execution.
I like Houston's defense from the last series, but this game is just weird so far.

[Killakobe81]

Great 1st half Rox I knew you would come out tough great defense so far but Lakers playing sloppy right now ...but n excuses so far you have outplayed lets see if you can keep it up ...(that's what she said)

[Spursfan092120]

Bumpy...they're making you STILL be a Nuggets fan?

[Cry Havoc]

He's pretty sick man..

Kobe wants to be the best? Remind me what the GoaT did with stomach flu and a 102 degree fever?

Never mind I found it for you:

[benefactor]

2nd half predictions.....

Rockets start missing some shots.
Kobe gets hot.
Lakers roll.
Houston didn't really shoot that great...42% and only 3-10 from distance. There defense is the reason why the score is what it is. I think if they keep doing what they are doing the game will stay close. The deciding factor will be can the execute down the stretch.

[The Franchise]

You make it sound like we've been lighting it up. You guys can play a lot better, but so can we.

Well, off to bed. Hopefully I'll see a LMAO Lakers thread tomorrow.

If not, a LMAO Rockets thread will suffice.

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

Kobe wants to be the best? Remind me what the GoaT did with stomach flu and a 102 degree fever?

ya, I'm so sick of these game time announcements of "flu games" for Wade, Kobe... Idon't think Lebron has had a "flu game" yet, but no one can do what MJ did that one night.

[Cry Havoc]

The Lakers have no answer for Yao Ming. That's going to be a major problem in this series for them if the Rockets know how to take advantage.

[iggypop123]

stupid touch screen. damn you cnn! this is terrible

[Kai]

everyone keeps talking about how the Lakers need to wake up, but the Rockets aren't playing their game either. Both teams look sloppy and the only entertaining part of this game was when the benches were on the floor. Yao needs to get more involved.

I'm not really liking the officiating tonight. I don't really feel like either team is benefitting too much, but the calls are either missed or late. I absolutely HATE late whistles.

[it's me]

Well, off to bed. Hopefully I'll see a LMAO Lakers thread tomorrow.

If not, a LMAO Rockets thread will suffice.


win win situation :lol

[Killakobe81]

I agree but kobe wil not have a GREAT game but he and the bench will spark a run ...
Great coaching by Phil taking out bynum to save 4 fouls for the 2nd half ....

Artest can play ...BUT his jumpers are Fool's gold you watch ...

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

Artest scares me a bit. He seems to have the Mike Tyson "I'm about 2 seconds and a small brainfark away from literally ripping this announcers throat out and eating it and then attempting to fornicate with every woman in the crowd" syndrome.

I like him over other NBA players. Because he's REAL. Too real.

[ElNono]

Interesting first half. I think the Lakers looked disjointed and didn't expect the physicality. They shot poorly too. Houston also didn't play very well, and outside Artest, they didn't shot the ball well either. I expect both teams to play better in the second half. If Houston wants to win, they are going to need more from Von Wafer, and more scoring from Scola.
Then again, seeing how Kobe struggled in the 1st half, maybe the best for Houston is to hope Kobe turns into a ball hog.
Lakers have to be careful with the foul situation. You don't want to have to play Powell much when Odom gives you good offense. And Bynum, well, he just needs to step up to the challenge.

[Spursfan092120]

The Lakers have no answer for Yao Ming. That's going to be a major problem in this series for them if the Rockets know how to take advantage.
Lakers should grab their shortest guy and put him on Yao...

That's what happens when an offense meets a good defense.

Or, in Houston's case, a bunch of chucker guards.

[IronMexican]

yes, Lakers are in a comfortable position. Rockets better watch out.

Obviously the Rockets are in a better position right now. But after a shitty half from the Lakers, i'd rather them be down by 3, then say 10 or 15.

[Lars]

LOL has arrogance ever gotten anyone anywhere? BTW, to this point, Roy > Kobe =P

[iggypop123]

rockets should be up 18. this is a dangerous game for houston. they cant keep waiting for luck to win the game

[Kai]

LOL has arrogance ever gotten anyone anywhere? BTW, to this point, Roy > Kobe =P

:lol

[sook]

this is looking really really bad for us. We had the perfect tempo. Yao needs to exert himself, he is a fucking pussy.

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

That's what happens when an offense meets a good defense.

Or, in Houston's case, a bunch of chucker guards.

If the 2nd half continues on the same pace, I'll give credit to Houston and Adelman.
Watching the Cavs, Celtics and Rockets now after the Spurs had their exit, leaves a lot to be desired from the Spurs. I hope they're watching and are looking to get back in the fold in 2010.

[BUMP]

i fucking know LA is gonna win.

Im so sure of it. Im not talking trash but my anus is still sore the way Kobe has raped me and my team over and over again. He always does this shit, he can score whenever he wants but decides to wait until the fourth quarter just to get your hopes up until he cruelly and sadisticlly puts the foot on the gas. You know its coming but you cant stop it.

Sorry Houston fans but better u then me :toast

[Spursfan092120]

LOL has arrogance ever gotten anyone anywhere? BTW, to this point, Roy > Kobe =P
There's a difference...Brandon Roy came in as a rookie and was the team's entire focus...Kobe wasn't even a starter his first two years...

[Indazone]

Rockets should step on the gas here. We can't let up.

[Indazone]

Rockets should win this game. Just make the shots you guys are supposed to make.

[Spursfan092120]

Rockets should step on the gas here. We can't let up.
They've got to. If they want to win this game, they have to keep their foot on Kobe's throat...period..

[Indazone]

this is looking really really bad for us. We had the perfect tempo. Yao needs to exert himself, he is a fucking pussy.

At least he's out there playing instead of sitting on the bench in a suit.

[j.dizzle]

:lol down 3..ill take it..That week off really messes with you but they'll get it back in the 2nd half. Gasol played like shit he aint scoring only 2 pts in the second half. All LA needs is a 3-4 scoring drought from houston & they'll go up by 10+. Always happens

[Lars]

There's a difference...Brandon Roy came in as a rookie and was the team's entire focus...Kobe wasn't even a starter his first two years...

I just meant in first halfs of our two game 1s (I dont really think Roy is better)

[ElNono]

I didn't see Brooks chucking many treys yet, or Battier for that matter. You know as soon as Yao gets tired in the 3rd, those shots are coming. If they make them, this could turn into a very interesting game.

[Indazone]

Rockets flat outplayed the Lakers in the first half.

Rockets didn't step on the Lakers when they had a chance, Lakers should play better in the 2nd half and make them pay for it.

Rockets flat outplayed the Lakers in the first half.

And they have an insurmountable 3 point lead to show for it. Congratulations.

agreed.

[DrHouse]

It might take a home loss for the Lakers to start playing with the sense of urgency that they need to. That's what I'm afraid of. HOU is a very good home team.

I think this Scola guy could've extended the Mavs raping of the Spurs to 6 games instead of 5.

That's some odd NBA half-time entertainment. :lol

[dirk4mvp]

Nah...kinda glad it's not my team. Enjoy. :toast

:lol

[Indazone]

It might take a home loss for the Lakers to start playing with the sense of urgency that they need to. That's what I'm afraid of. HOU is a very good home team.

If the Lakeshow loses this game, that's it. No more homecourt advantage.

[Libri]

Scola jumper

[The Franchise]

Scola coming out focused.

[benefactor]

LA is in trouble if Scola starts draining that consistently.

[Spursfan092120]

That's some odd NBA half-time entertainment. :lol
lol...Family Guy

[YellowFever]

Fisher should just retire right there right now.

[Lars]

Yao needs to dunk!

[DrHouse]

Lakers will lose.

Terrible play.

[BUMP]

Bynum "I want Yao"

[Cry Havoc]

Boos from the Lakers fans. They are playing horribly.

[lil_penny]

Rockets didn't play all that good I didn't think during the 1st half.. this is a game the rockets could steal I think.. go rockets!

[The Franchise]

Scola!!!

[Indazone]

yeah 9 pt lead!!! whooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

[benefactor]

Lakers standing around watching...

[dirk4mvp]

Rocketfans, I suggest you go smoke a joint and listen to the soothing sounds of Maggot Brain...this game's over. Don't waste your time.

[E20]

Good start by the Rockets.

[The Franchise]

Artest is tripping.

[DrHouse]

The refs are giving LA absolutely no love.

I don't want to hear any bitch ass Rocket fan ever say the refs are in the Laker's pocket.

[BUMP]

There's 0% chance Rockets win

[Lars]

I don't know why Artest is on Kobe, but Battier needs to be back on him immediatley.

[DrHouse]

Yao Ming is the one getting superstar treatment if anything.

[dirk4mvp]

There's 0% chance Rockets win

I agree.

[Cry Havoc]

Kobe misses a FT. Wow.

[Spursfan092120]

Kobe waking up.

[DrHouse]

Give me a break kobe!

What the fuck are you doing?

[Spursfan092120]

soft ass fucking Pao Gasol...damnit..

[E20]

Rockets will win.

[benefactor]

Man...the whole Rockets team flopped.

[Indazone]

Pau with 3 fouls have a seat

[iggypop123]

i hate these flops they need to eject people for this try and block dont fall

[baseline bum]

WTF is Bryant doing passing on a break!?! :lol

[YellowFever]

We can still sweep this series if fisher and Bynum gets hurt....LoL

[The Franchise]

Yao is a fucking girl.

[DrHouse]

:lmao Rocket fan

The Lakers play like absolute GARBAGE and you still can't pull away....

[Lars]

Ugh, take care of the basketball!

[BUMP]

Here come the Lakers!

[benefactor]

Lakers are awake now.

[YellowFever]

Give me a break kobe!

What the fuck are you doing?

that wasn't on kobe.

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

Phil's a smart coach

[Lars]

:lmao Rocket fan

The Lakers play like absolute GARBAGE and you still can't pull away....

We never blow teams out. Rockets are experts at making everything as painfully difficult as possible.

[DrHouse]

Why is Kobe passing on the break?

Fucking take it hard to the rack you dumb bitch. You are a superstar. You will get the foul calls.

[Indazone]

Well that sucked

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

Rockets channeling Tracy McGrady

[BUMP]

oh man Rockets.....good bye, you had your chance

[Spursfan092120]

Rockets channeling Tracy McGrady
Actually, Tracy would be a huge help to them against the Lakers...

[benefactor]

We never blow teams out. Rockets are experts at making everything as painfully difficult as possible.
You are not alone. There is another Texas team right down I-10 that does the exact same thing.

[Indazone]

Rockets aren't the Mavs. :lol

[The Franchise]

:lmao Rocket fan

The Lakers play like absolute GARBAGE and you still can't pull away....

Stop setting up excuses for the off chance of you guys losing. :lol

[DAF86]

:lmao Rocket fan

The Lakers play like absolute GARBAGE and you still can't pull away....

Rockets are playing like absolute garbage on offense too

[Spursfan092120]

Agreed...and since this game is over...to keep your eyes on the television...ladies and gentlemen, once more....Mr. Conway Twitty..
