Game 2: Lakers vs Rockets

[IronMexican]

Alright, fagots, game 2 is on tomorrow. Lakers better win this one, or else they are definitely losing the series.

[Ditty]

rocekts will win gaurnteed

rockets in 5

[DPG21920]

Close to 1 day early thread.

[j.dizzle]

I'm starting to really question their focus. If they dont come out tomorrow & try to kill houston right away, then ima be real pissed. Game 1 was some of the worst team ball i've seen all year. Kobe better not take more then 24 shots too hahaha

[j.dizzle]

Like i said in the other thread, they need to have that damn hunger that these other teams have & the bandwagon crowd at staples better be loud.

[IronMexican]

Damn, I was lurking Clutch. I feel bad for you rocketfans. Having to deal with so many Chinese posters who barely know engrish.

[peskypesky]

Go Rockets!

[KSeal]

I think the Lakers will win but it will be a really close game that they'll barely pull out. Lakers better pray they win one of these first two in Houston cause if not they're losing the series in 6. If they lose the series, ship Gasofts ass out. You'll never win a title with him as you're main big, you'll have a great 60 win season every year but when the playoffs come around and the physical defensive minded teams are there, he'll completely disappear. Show up tomorrow king soft or GTFO!

[E20]

I wonder if I should repost all the Lamar Odom clips again........

[hhml]

Go Rockets!

Silence you! I will not have such talk of treachery. Lakers better win tomorrow and on Friday or heads will roll. :ihit

[peskypesky]

Silence you! I will not have such talk of treachery. Lakers better win tomorrow and on Friday or heads will roll. :ihit

"ClutchFans" is depressing, these are the comments you'll find in a thread called "Rockets-Lakers game 1 discussion" (or something to that effect): "Go Rockets", "I love my team", "Let's go Yao", "Yes", "I'm so happy".

[Jacob1983]

The pressure is on the Rockets. They have to win game 2. If they win game 2, it will crush the Lakers' spirit. If they lose game 2, the Lakers will be awakened and will have the momentum and motivation to win the series and not have any doubts. So I think the Rockets have to win game 2 in order to have a shot at winning the series.

And some Spurs fans complain about the Argie influx here. :rolleyes



YEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHH
HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH HH!!!!!!!!!!!

YAO MING is a tru warier!!!!!!!!!!!



To be fair to Yao fan....some things are never lost in translation.



Vujacic is pussy.****..
KB often faked like a gental man..oh,no he sucks when shane blocked him..

[KSeal]

There is no way you can say more pressure is on the Rockets then the Lakers, that's just retarded.

I don't have a problem with bad grammar (as you may see I have my good amount of grammatical mistakes), the thing I can't stand is all those comments, one after the other, saying pretty much nothing.

Yeah, it was strange. And weird...and it was the "game analysis" thread. :rollin

[blink]

cmon rockets. stay humble stay hungry

[Mavs<Spurs]

cmon rockets. stay humble stay hungry

this is the problem.

I think that the Lakers will win by 30 + points and Kobe will have another big night. The two teams will come in with completely different attitudes (the Lakers will be the aggressor and the Rockets will come out passive).

I support the Rockets of the two teams.

However, the Lakers will win this game easily.

And the problem is that the Lakers will win at least one game in Houston.

And it will be worse if Yao is injured.

Lakers will still probably take this series in 6.

However, Houston winning game 1 was cool and made the series a little more exciting and interesting.


Go Rockets !

:toast

[benefactor]

It was great for Houston to steal game 1, but I think the Lakers probably win this game by double digits. It will be more important to hold on to home court when they get back to Houston to have a chance to close them out in 6 at home.

[Rapper]

What if the Rockets bring 2-0 back to Houston?

[Imposter Cleaner]

What if the Rockets bring 2-0 back to Houston?
like the first round in the season of 04-05?

No way the Lakers will lose another game. I'm not worried about this game.

The next two games in Houston, those are the important ones.

the Lakers are talented enough to steal one win from Houston or even two, they are also talented for other crimes like rape. Kobe Bryant in particular.

I can't believe even Rocket fans are buying into this conspiracy mumbo jumbo even after dealing with all the foul play crying by the Portland fans.

Let's not forget the Rockets shot more free throws than the Lakers. And in the Utah series, the Jazz shot more free throws than the Lakers in 4 out of 5 games. Lakers aren't getting the ref love. 5 out of 6 Playoff games so far have NOT been ref favorable to the Lakers.

If anything, it looks like Stern's trying to make sure the Lakers DON'T make it to the Finals :lol

So let's quit with the conspiracy theories cuz if there was one, the refs are doing a terrible job of it.

[ElNono]

Free throw counts are not necessarily an indicator of bias officiating. Most of the time it's simply an indicator of which team is being the aggressor.

Lakers just need to wake up.

I want to see what PJax came up with to slow down/stop Yao. Bynumite was a foul machine in the first game, and Pau can only watch getting his ass handed to himself. The other subplot is how does Yao knee feels.

Wohooooooooooo


Kobe is the best

Pau+Lamar+Ariza = matchup problems

Zen Master is the best; Fisher is clutch







Jinxing? :D

[DaDakota]

How the Rockets come out will tell a lot, in Portland in game 2 they did not have the same intensity.....my hope is they come out swinging and match the Lakers and make it a slugfest.

[Indazone]

If the Rockets somehow win another one in LA then watch out!

[Indazone]

My prediction for the game, lots of high pick and rolls to free kobe up.

[nil.ball]

"Bryant drive to the hoop, a beautiful behind of back pass to the wide open Sasha Vujacic. Sasha was busy combing his hair, out of bound, Houston ball!"

[j.dizzle]

If Kobe doesnt take 87 shots, the Lakers will win. If Gasol trimmed his vagina after game 1, then the Lakers will win. If Lamar has been pot free since monday, then the Lakers will win & if Bynum cares more about basketball then playing video games, then the Lakers will win.

[sook]

Damn, I was lurking Clutch. I feel bad for you rocketfans. Having to deal with so many Chinese posters who barely know engrish.

brooks e bad PG! He no give ball to Yao! Adelman hate yellow man so he no start lowry because lowry pass Yao ball!

[sook]

Interesting if the rockets win tonight 5% chance. But what would you guys say if they did?

[hhml]

The state of the nation is in an uproar ever since game 1. Its citizen of the great and mighty Lakers empire have become uneasy. Lakers must win game 2 and 3 in order to restore peace and tranquility or all hell will break lose. Chaos will pursue and the world as we know it, is over.

[TampaDude]

I hate the Lakers, but there is NFW they lose Game 2 or the series.

[Jacob1983]

I would love to see the Rockets beat the Lakers tonight but I don't think it's in the cards. I have a feeling that Stern is going to do something and even the series tonight. The Lakers will probably shoot like 40 something free throws and the Rockets will only shoot 10. Kobe will have a Dwayne Wade type night at the FT line and shoot between 15 to 20 FTs.

Wow, Joey fucking Crawford. This shit is not going to be pretty.

[WalterBenitez]

I'd like to see HOU taking this one

[DrHouse]

The Lakers better get some nice home cookin' after the pathetic reffing in Game 1.

Whoever that black ref with the fucked up eyebrows is needs to be shot.

[Laker-fan-in-SanAnto]

I hate the lakers but you really have to be a dumbass to believe they are going to lose to the Rockettes. Lakers might win the next 4 to win in 5.

I agree with you. As bad as the Lakers played they still had a chance to win. Lakers hit another bump in the road. They'll play much better and win this one, and the series. It might take six games to do it, but it will get done.

[Caltex2]

like the first round in the season of 04-05?

This team isn't as mentally weak as that one and has better role players.

[mytespurs]

Nice win by the Rockets in Game 1 but Lakers will prevail tonight. The Rockets won't play as well as they did Monday. The Lakers will play much better than they did Monday. Kobe and the rest of the team will more than make up for that clunker. The Lakers are the better team and that loss, more than anything, may have been a wake up call that they may not cakewalk through the WC as they appeared to do last year.


I would be stunned if the Rockets pull out another win tonight.

[Banzai]

Brooks ! wow what a play !!!!!!!

[SpursDynasty]

The Lakers have a lot to prove in this series. They are the underdogs in the series and I would be surprised if they make the WCF's.

[Artest93]

The Rockets are still the underdogs because people are basically saying it was a fluke because the Lakers were rusty....If you get paid millions of dollars to do something, rust is never an excuse.....BTW Fellas, Wafer, Landry, Scola had terrible games, so hopefully those guys get going

[KSeal]

The Lakers have a lot to prove in this series. They are the underdogs in the series and I would be surprised if they make the WCF's.

Really, just a few days ago you said this.


Houston vs. Lakers - I have to give LA some credit I suppose, they won the first round series against Utah despite being the underdog in the series and Utah was the favorite. I still think it was just a matter of making shots and nothing else. Lakers will win this in 5. Houston had the easiest first round of any team and has no business being in the playoffs. I don't expect Bynum to do anything this series or next series or in the Finals, but I don't expect the Rockets to do anything either. The Lakers will win this series only because it's Houston and their toughest opponent (Spurs) already got eliminated with their most explosive player sidelined with an injury. So, the Lakers should be thankful that they don't have to play the Spurs this year, because they can't beat the Spurs in a 7 game series with Manu playing.

Denver vs. Dallas - Again, Dallas beat the Spurs despite being the underdog in the series but that was because Manu Ginobili was out and our role players (Mason, Hill, Bonner) just don't have the playoff experience to fill in the void and Manu's defensive and offensive impact on games can't be replaced with jump shooting. Denver will win this in 5, this will be the worst 2nd round series in history. Nothing intriguing about this series at all.

The bold was from a few days ago, now you're saying that the Lakers are the underdog? Please stop with the bullshit man.

Fuck, you get pissed at Spurs fans for being mad when Derek Fisher fucking runs Barry over as he shoots a three to end the game and you have the nerve to complain about the very fair game 1 officiating? The refs didn't cause Gasol and Bryant to have horrible games and all the shooters to go ice cold from the three-point line.

[baseline bum]

Let's not forget the Rockets shot more free throws than the Lakers.

Shit usually happens when you intentionally foul at the end of the game.

[baseline bum]

J. Crawford.

Oh crap we're screwed.

Isn't he a pretty good ref to get on the road, as long as Tim Duncan isn't on your team?

It's a sad, sad testament to the league's officiating that certain referees are more famous than some of our players.

[Lars]

And here we go.

[Cry Havoc]

Scola with a nice 18 footer. The Rocket's ability to hit the mid-range jumper might decide the series.

[timtonymanu]

Lakers will win with a blowout.

[Cry Havoc]

Exactly what the Rockets want. Let Kobe go off and shut everyone else down.

[Cry Havoc]

But they need to stop turning it over.

[balli]

LA's not fucking around tonight.

[dirk4mvp]

Kobe's on fire.

[pauls931]

LA is trying to bury them early. Also a non-sick kobe will help.

[SpursDynasty]

Kobe is too cocky for someone who hasn't won since 2002.

[Lars]

Gasol fronting Yao and denying him the ball.

an mvp 3 time champion. he can do what he wants. he isnt some nobody like house or smith who run their mouths for every shot made

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

Lakers are going to use all their ejaculate in the first quarter.

Rockets will win the game.

[lefty]

The key for Lakers is not trying to stop Yao or Brooks.


No, neutralizing Artest is the key

[hhml]

Lakers are playing well with this unit. Let's hope they can sustain this level of play throughout the game. I think this starting 5 is a lot better than the one with Bynum and Gasol. All Bynum does is clog up the paint for Pau and Kobe. This lineup is much more efficient and fluid.

[lefty]

Go Lakeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeers




Woooooooooooooohoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo ooooooooo

I'm not going to say HOU is flat out going to win, but yeah, LA's not been good about maintaining a high level of play when they're leading.

Of course with HOU hitting 3's LA might not be leading at all much longer.

[iggypop123]

why is artest getting d-wade treatment?

Just as the Celtics/Magic game, the Lakers have really stepped up their perimeter D.
The Rockets offense is trapped 10 feet off the 3 pt line.

Yeah Houston isn't winning no matter how poised they are with maintaining their defense/offense.

[Cry Havoc]

Game isn't over. Wtf? Are the Lakers going to shoot 85% for the entire game?

[lefty]

I know Mutombo is injured, but Adelman would be wise to play him for 1 minute so he can send Kobe to the IR

That way, if he gets suspended, it won't be a big loss for Houston

[braeden0613]

Lakers won't hit 80% all game...houston can still come back. They probably won't but who knows

[iggypop123]

What the hell is that call. They called Scola for an offensive foul because the defender ran into him? What the fuck?

he stuck out his butt while maitainting his pivot foot. the lakers used to do it all the time and its a staple of the triangle offense but it was made illegal a couple years ago. the old school kings did it too. it prevents the defender from chasing somebody. its now a moving screen

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

Game over



Go L.A

They can't lose, too good
They're good but they're not TOO good.

This reminds me of when the Spurs got all giddy by making it rain in the first quarter. Only to lose later.

[Laker-fan-in-SanAnto]

Where's Erin Brooks?

Aaron Brooks is a no show so far. He has to be aggressive for the Rockets to come back.

It'd be nice to have Walton for this series. Ariza is too weak to guard Artest. Walton is a lot stronger and can handle Artest down low better.

Edit: nvm, didn't notice Walton was in.

[Capt Bringdown]

Yao with his 2nd foul. Everything going the Lakers way, game over.

[DrHouse]

The Rockets have hit more BS shots in these first two games than any team I've ever seen.

So many points are coming off broken plays at the end of the shotclock. They are extremely fortunate to shoot the percentage they are. Ron Artest in particular just hoists bullshit shots half the time. That won't keep up. They need to get production from Yao Ming inside if they want to win.

[JamStone]

I say just let Kobe play the whole game, until the final minutes if it's a blowout. Don't even take him out. What a beast. You can hate him but you cannot deny he's a fuckin killer.

[La Peace]

Houston 1, Refs 1

All the Lakers need to do is start chucking and drop from 86 to 42...The Rockets will keep shooting 60 percent cuz Lakers dont play it. That's the constant.

[lefty]

thx

No problem

That will be 375000 $

[DrHouse]

DrHouse sighting !!!!

That was KGesque

Yea I was busy WATCHING THE GAME

[Cry Havoc]

The Rockets have hit more BS shots in these first two games than any team I've ever seen.

Hi, SpursDynasty.

[Def Rowe]

I hate Kobe so freaking much. What a bitch. Good to know he'll never win a ring sans Shaq.

When the heck did people start saying 'sans' all the time. Just say minus or without :lol.

LOL WTF? Have you seen the shots the Rockettes are hitting? All outside BS shots coming off of broken plays. They ain't gonna keep up either, especially Ron-Ron.

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

Lakers just SHAT all over Houston's vaunted defense.

39 point quarter motherfuckers.

:lmao

talk about a schizophrenic poster. On the Game 1 thread it was the end of the world.

[iggypop123]

i think battier should burn that book by now. 15 points already

[Kriz-Maxima]

I love Kobe Bryant.

[lefty]

Yea I was busy WATCHING THE GAME

There is a game on ? :wow

[Capt Bringdown]

That's a statement quarter eh?

Hate to say it, but the Lakers and Celtics have played the most impressive ball so far in the playoffs. Both teams have stumbled, but when they're on, they appear to be far above the competition.

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

Ron Ron is a legit threat man....They were good clean shots.

[DrHouse]

Kobe was brilliant, but Pau had 13 as well. Huge for LAL.

[lefty]

I know Mutombo is injured, but Adelman would be wise to play him for 1 minute so he can send Kobe to the IR

That way, if he gets suspended, it won't be a big loss for Houston

[lefty]

Gasol has been the best Laker this season IMO

But to be fair, Lakers played CandyCottons several times this season

[Cry Havoc]

Lowry getting hip-checked while driving baseline... where's the call there?

[Cry Havoc]

When the heck did people start saying 'sans' all the time. Just say minus or without :lol.

Some of us enjoy having a vocabulary, thanks.

[Cry Havoc]

Lakers not putting Houston away... starting to look lazy on defense.

[Lars]

Well LA has been giving up leads lately, lets see if we can chip away at it.

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

That's a statement quarter eh?

Celtics yes. Lakers no. Lakers suck at defense. They can only light it up on one end. Their defense is spotty.

[supermana]

Lakers just SHAT all over Houston's vaunted defense.
39 point quarter motherfuckers.
How many vicodin have you taken today?

[iggypop123]

the flops have started

[Cry Havoc]

OBVIOUS offensive foul not called there.

THREE from Wafer, Rockets within 8. Wow. LA fans up 8 and getting pissy.

[Indazone]

almost got the feed there and then it popped up I needed an access code :(

[Laker-fan-in-SanAnto]

Calm down Waffle!!!!!

[lefty]

Wafer didn't play much in game 1


CIA Adelman motherfuckers !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[hhml]

Wafer has an awkward shot.

[Lars]

Lakers are really packing it in the paint. On that Lowry drive all five Lakers were in the paint.

[ace3g]

Wafer is on fire, rockets have it down to 8 with Landry going to the line for the and 1

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

wow, Adelman has a good team this year.

The Rockets Starters are a big big team, while his 2nd unit has speed and youth. Rockets definitely have an impressive versatile squad without TMACj.

[noob cake]

Joey Crawford + Kobe Bryant...

Rockets can't possibly take both, one of them has to settle down.

[Cry Havoc]

AND ONE inside for Landry.

Lakers playing extremely lazy. This is why Kobe won't win a ring. His team is now watching him play instead of staying active and alert.

Also, on a less homerific note, does anyone notice the bizarre passing movement by the Rockets? It's kind of fun and scary to watch at the same time.

[hhml]

Normally, that would've been a foul on sasha :lol

[Cry Havoc]

Brooks sends Vujacic flying? :lmao

Fucking refs. Priceless.

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

Any team that has SASAH VUJABITCH DESERVES TO BE HUMILIATED IN THE PLAYOFFS! :madrun

[resistanze]

Vujabitch is damn annoying.

[Cry Havoc]

Normally, that would've been a foul on sasha :lol

Good to see some Lakers fans don't have their head up their ass.

[Capt Bringdown]

Ha ha, nice call Crawford, 40 ft away from the play.

[Lars]

I'd love to see some fucking replays on these supposed Rocket fouls. Great job TNT.

[ace3g]

I know how was that a foul on Brooks, sasha wasn't in position for that rebound

[Killakobe81]

Our bench still ineffective we need to work inside out with Bynum even if he is not scoring much or drawing a double team whther Gasol or Bynum is in the post Lakers are more effective that way ...
Our starters when playing well are MUCH better than theirs ...

[hhml]

He only comes to play when he has to, that's why.

Oh no, I have no doubt Kobe gives it his all on the offense every game. It's still boggles me how he misses one day and hits the next.

[Indazone]

finally I can watch this game...hey only down by single digits...that's good.

[Banzai]

Lakers playing good..but the bench sucks..I wonder...lol

[supermana]

Fuck that broken machine ,go take some vicodin you fucking House

[j.dizzle]

dont get too confident yet Laker fans..we all know this team holding on to a lead aint happening

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

AND ONE inside for Landry.

I enjoy their teamwork, they're sticking to the gameplan without getting individualistic. I'm surprised Ron-Ron is doing so well.
My instinctual hatred of the Lakers is causing me to root for the Rockets.

[noob cake]

Joey is absolutely killing us.

[j.dizzle]

bynum & odom have brought absolutely nothing to the table so far..lets trade bynum for the birdman haha

[Cry Havoc]

Hahaha, FUCK YOU CRAWFORD, YOU WERE STARING RIGHT AT THE PLAY AND YOU STILL GOT IT WRONG YOU FUCKWAD.

[supermana]

Lol Joey cant finish his job

[timtonymanu]

haha at Crawford showing Brown where to stand.

[Cry Havoc]

Fuck this game.

This is so fucking rigged.

FUCKING RIGGED.

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

Collins is a spin artist. FUCK HIM>

[Lars]

LOL, this is awesome.

[ace3g]

that was not goaltending

[iggypop123]

best way to stop wayfer have him guard kobe

[Cry Havoc]

THAT WAS SO FUCKING OBVIOUS THE BALL WAS OUT OF THE CYLINDER. A FOUR YEAR OLD COULD HAVE SEEN THAT SPATIAL RELATIONSHIP.

Fuck this.

[lefty]

Vujabrick

[angrydude]

that was a bullshit call on the basket interference.

thats how you get sterned I guess.

[Indazone]

Crawford only calling the fouls he's supposed to call :tu

[hhml]

Any team that has SASAH VUJABITCH DESERVES TO BE HUMILIATED IN THE PLAYOFFS! :madrun

What about the Rockets? Sasha's brother is on there :lol

[Capt Bringdown]

Houston will fight back to single digits and then Kobe will come back in to push the lead all night.

[Laker-fan-in-SanAnto]

Shannon "Chris" Brown

[Cry Havoc]

Fuck this officiating. Brooks gets leveled, no call. Brooks and Sasha collide, Sasha flops, the foul on Brooks.

Fucking pathetic.

[Lars]

3 wide open threes in a row. Gonna need to work on that.

[iggypop123]

if brown was 3 inches taller he would be an all star

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

Rockets got this game. Adelman is determined.

I hope Adelman gets his revenge on the REFS and Phil Jackson. He doesn't deserve to go through this bullshit again.

[j.dizzle]

luke 'momentum killer" walton to the rescueeee

[lefty]

Don't worry guys

Lakers got this !!!!

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

What about the Rockets? Sasha's brother is on there :lol

:lol I did not know that.

Usually in the family, there is one brother that is regular, and the other one is an annoying faggot. He's probably the regular one.

[Indazone]

Only way the Rockets win this is if they play good enough to win by 20 pts but because of the refs, the score is even at the end of the game. If the Rockets play at the level of the Lakers, they Lakeshow wins going away. Good old home cooking at it's best.

[Laker-fan-in-SanAnto]

THAT WAS SO FUCKING OBVIOUS THE BALL WAS OUT OF THE CYLINDER. A FOUR YEAR OLD COULD HAVE SEEN THAT SPATIAL RELATIONSHIP.

Fuck this.

Thank god I have a DVR!!!!!

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

3 wide open threes in a row. Gonna need to work on that.

Rockets got real lucky. Maybe the basketball gods are on the Rockets side this series.

[rayray2k8]

This game has tainted written all over it..
Is that better Laker fans?? :rolleyes

[sook]

Fuck this officiating. Brooks gets leveled, no call. Brooks and Sasha collide, Sasha flops, the foul on Brooks.

Fucking pathetic.

Is it just me or does Crawford really have it out for us? And wtf was that offensive goaltending call?

We are driving to the basket more than the lakers and we aren't getting any calls.

Kobe is palying like a monster so not much of a difference i guess

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

Adelman deserves props so far, good coaching.

Collins is a worthless Laker knob slobber, even his sidekick called him out on the bad call goal tending.

Collins first comment of hte game was an EXCUSE for the Lakers game 1 loss saying "they were rusty." blah blah.
He needs to be replaced. I hate him.

[Cry Havoc]

I cannot BELIEVE they whistled D-Fish for that foul.

[iggypop123]

stern told them to call a bs foul in fisher right?

[hhml]

What a stupid foul by fisher.

[lefty]

Wtf ?????????????????

[Danny.Zhu]

Refs are taking over the game.

[Lars]

Rofl joey from far side.

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

:lmao a star player would get the call

[sook]

lol at officiating

[Cry Havoc]

Well they made up with the DFish call with that total bullshit foul #3 on Yao. Nothing like totally taking a team's ability to win the game.
