Game 6: Lakers @ Rockets

[Capt Bringdown]

Attack the rim and good things happen. Love it.

[Ice009]

Who would have thought Aaron Brooks would play like thisin the playoffs 6 months ago.

Good stuff Brooks!

[JustBlaze]

A Rockets/Nuggets conference finals.

Choke on that Stern, wouldn't that be great?

Anybody but the Lakers sound good to me.

[tomtom]

go rox!

[ElNono]

LOL Kobe with the hail mary treys...

[Crookshanks]

Who would have thought Aaron Brooks would play like thisin the playoffs 6 months ago.

Good stuff Brooks!

And it's so great to see Landry playing well. He's so thankful he survived that shooting.

[Pablo Escobar]

man i love this

[ballhog]

Maybe the Fakers could win if another Rocket starter went down.

Lakers will have to try and close it out in game 7. This team is so frustrating to watch. Oh well, have a Sasha chip.
:lmao

[pawe]

what's with the mortal kombat song?

[Allanon]

Cute asian chick behind JVG

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

what happened to Bynum?

[ballhog]

JVG has a good point, I'd break out the Hack-a-Hayes in the 4th quarter.

Hack-a-Landry might work as well.

[Crookshanks]

Gosh - people thought the Lakers would sweep - then when Yao went down, they figured it was over. Rudy T is inspiring this team!

[lefty]

[peskypesky]

Great win, Rockets!!

[iggypop123]

why do the rockets do well with less but with more they suck?

[ballhog]

I thought Bynum was the answer?

[TampaDude]

Cute asian chick behind JVG

Yup...love that "Laker Hater" shirt, too! :hat

[iggypop123]

all about the 3 for the lakers. when it sucks game over. 5-22

[lurker]

Cheering on the Rockets is foreign to me, but I have to do it. The media meltdown that would ensue if the Lakers were eliminated would be worth it.

[Crookshanks]

13 points in the quarter for the Lakers :lmao

[turiaf for president]

fuckkkkkkkkk

[turiaf for president]

man we deserve to lose this series. tonite was pathetic.

[Def Rowe]

I thought Bynum was the answer?

I thought Gooden was the answer. :lmao

[kamikazi_player]

We gotta give Rick Adelman alot of credit in this series, he should truly get a contract extension after this series, win or lose.

[DPG21920]

Don't cheer, just hate them less.

[Allanon]

Hack-a-Landry might work as well.

I thought Landry was a good FT shooter?

Hayes has that wierd ass leaning forward, knee jerk free throw. I think his percentages are horrible.

[peskypesky]

I thought Bynum was the answer?

I guess he can't dominate when the other team brings out their 6'6" center (Chuck Hayes).

[Allanon]

That's his wife

That aint his wife.... is it? :lol

[DPG21920]

I thought Gooden was the answer. :lmao

How much does Drew cost? Bynum?

[Brazil]

Allllllaaaaanoooonnnnn :lol

[rayray2k8]

Thanks a lot lakers, you lost me 40 bucks.
Lakers aint shit, denver is gonna take 'em in the WCF.
If not them, the the cavs will finish their sorry asses.
Unbelievable.

[Allanon]

Officially a SUCK A$$ game by the Lakers, getting demoloished by the Rockets.

[Allanon]

Allllllaaaaanoooonnnnn :lol

:cry

[Crookshanks]

So what Lakers team shows up on Sunday? They're really taking a gamble by not closing out this series tonight. All it takes is for Kobe to get hurt early in the game Sunday and their season could be over!

[peskypesky]

I thought Gooden was the answer. :lmao

i don't remember any Spurs fan crowing about Gooden the way Lakers fans did about Bynum.

[lefty]

That aint his wife.... is it? :lol
No

[IronMexican]

I am loving what Mark Jackson is saying.

[rayray2k8]

Even the commentators are saying the Nuggets will beat the lakers because of their half ass effort.

[Spursfan092120]

Wow...LA never led tonight.

[Libri]

They should have a camera shot of Stern.

[DAF86]

all about the 3 for the lakers. when it sucks game over. 5-22

You made SpursDynasty proud.

[DPG21920]

LMAO at Sasha starting shit with Shane and staring him down.

[ballhog]

I guess he can't dominate when the other team brings out their 6'6" center (Chuck Hayes).

:rollin

[peskypesky]

i'd love to see Kobe ripping the shit out of his team-mates in the locker room

[Spursfan092120]

Even the commentators are saying the Nuggets will beat the lakers because of their half ass effort.
Van Gundy said he doesn't think it's going to be a blowout in Game 7. Shit..you take a team fired up like these Rockets..and give them a chance in Game 7 to pull of the biggest upset in Playoff History..I'd keep a close eye on that game.

[KSeal]

Props to the Rockets, the Lakers suck, the Rockets don't. After this game I truly want the Rockets to win game seven, they deserve to move on and the Lakers deserve to go home.

[Crookshanks]

Wow - that announcer just said he's done picking the Lakers. He said the Lakers had no business being in a game 7 with this Rockets team. IF the Lakers win on Sunday - he's still picking the Nuggets to beat them in WCF. :lmao You know it's bad when the ESPN announcers are jumping off the Lakers wagon!

[GSH]

What's with Vujabitch trying to start shit with 3 seconds left. Classless bitch move.

[kamikazi_player]

Wow...LA never led tonight.
Never lead in game 4 too i believe, i miss the first 2 minutes of the game.

[Vinnie_Johnson]

Is that Chris Rock that plays Point for the Rockets? Who knew he could Ball.

[Mel_13]

Good job Rockets. If this was your last home game of 2009 you sent your fans home happy

[iggypop123]

is that slut taller than brooks?

[peskypesky]

i like that Brooks kid.

[lefty]

Damn

Brooks is still running :lmao

[kamikazi_player]

OMG...if the Rockets just have won game 3, this series woulda been over and Kobe woulda had something to cry about this offseason.

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

What's with Vujabitch trying to start shit with 3 seconds left. Classless bitch move.

...he's really out of sync with the NBA. He's the guy that shot that last minute three in the elimination game.

Dude doesn't know where he is, or WHO HE IS

[Brazil]

:cry

75 :lmao


sorry Allanon but this year when you are a spurs fan you have not a lot of opportunities to be happy

game 7 against half of a rocket team :lol

[Libri]

what's with vujabitch trying to start shit with 3 seconds left. Classless bitch move.

wtf?

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

Is that Chris Rock that plays Point for the Rockets? Who knew he could Ball.

:lol yeah, I've heard the Chris Rock comparisons this week. I was like, "Oh yeahh... he does kinda look like Chris Rock"

[alchemist]

watching the Rockets do this without Yao & T-Pain makes me feel embarrassed and frustrated with how the Spurs got beat last year against the Lakers and this year against Dallas.......I hope someone from the Spurs org is watching this series.

[TampaDude]

Who else here thinks Joey Crawford will ref Game 7 in LA??? :lol

[Spur-Addict]

That's how Laker games are supposed to end. Good job Rockets.

[Ice009]

We gotta give Rick Adelman alot of credit in this series, he should truly get a contract extension after this series, win or lose.

Rockets are doing this with defense, toughness and heart. That kind of play reminds me of the Spurs at times and I can't believe what Pop turned this Spurs team into this past season.

Aaron Brooks, Scola, Landry and everyone on the Rockets played hard tonight.

[Vinnie_Johnson]

:lol yeah, I've heard the Chris Rock comparisons this week. I was like, "Oh yeahh... he does kinda look like Chris Rock"

I was waiting for him to bust out with the Cracker Head smack.

[Lebron4MVP]

The Lakers are in deep shit. Their shitty D is catching up to them. Bynum is a 7 foot version of Vince Young in terms of being weak mentally. This team has nothing on the 3 peat Lakers. Pathetic unacceptable series from a so called contender. Allowing a Rockets team with no Yao to push you to 7 games. :lmao

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

if Rockets actually do the unlikely in Game 7 and eliminate the Lakers, without Tmac and Yao, :wow

..........Lakers and Laker fan have no excuse for the elimination! :lmao

Kobe will go INSANE over the offseason!!!!! watch out on Sunday...Kobe's mental state depends on it!!!!

[Def Rowe]

i don't remember any Spurs fan crowing about Gooden the way Lakers fans did about Bynum.

I know... I'm just pissed.

[Ice009]

Damn

Brooks is still running :lmao

Does Brooks ran as hard as TP?

Brooks was finishing this game really well. Maybe TP needs to get some kind of conditioning coach?

[iggypop123]

this is either a team losing to a bunch of scrubs, or like last year a team losing to a team that just played hard at home like the hawks on the way to a title

[IronMexican]

Wow, Little General just dissed the Laker fans on ESPNEWS

[DPG21920]

this is either a team losing to a bunch of scrubs, or like last year a team losing to a team that just played hard at home like the hawks on the way to a title

For the second time, didn't the Rockets win game 1 in LA?

[DPG21920]

So true - he put offense before defense this year and look where it got us. I hope he's watching this series and snaps back into the old Pop.

[iggypop123]

For the second time, didn't the Rockets win game 1 in LA?

i only said the hawks played well at home

[IronMexican]

???

He said "They will probably show up on this time, which is unlike Laker fans" when talking about game 7

[Ice009]

this is either a team losing to a bunch of scrubs, or like last year a team losing to a team that just played hard at home like the hawks on the way to a title

Not really Houston could have actually wrapped this series up already and they've also won a game in LA.

Hawks weren't really looking like they could win the series at all.

[DPG21920]

I am obsessed with DPG. I love him. lol Yao lol T-Mac lol Mutombo

[peskypesky]

I know... I'm just pissed.

i'm not trying to rub it in. in all seriousness, what happened to Bynum? with no Yao and no Mutumbo, who's stopping him?

[01Snake]

As much as I hate the Lakers, I'm not feeling good about the Rockets chances. Getting blownout in LA Tuesday was pretty embarrassing.

Hopefully I'm wrong and the Rockets escape with the win and the series.

[peskypesky]

Does Brooks ran as hard as TP?

Brooks was finishing this game really well. Maybe TP needs to get some kind of conditioning coach?

i think Brooks is a few years younger than Tony

[Capt Bringdown]

In defense of Pop, what can you do with stiffs like Bonner, Oberto & Kurt Thomas.
Of course, those are the players he wanted, so...

[Ice009]

i think Brooks is a few years younger than Tony

It might also be that TP has won a few rings and gets bored with regular season games so he doesn't go all out.

[ducks]

i think Brooks is a few years younger than Tony

broaks has more help then tp this year
tp was gassed for guarding a fast point guard
and carring the o load

[iggypop123]

i cant stay here any longer. have the weekend to read the feminine mystique for finals. congrats rockets. i have no idea how they managed to make about 10 shots in the second half. contested yet swish.

[peskypesky]

you're talking about chances? of course the Rockets have no fucking chance. they had little chance when the series began, and things got worse when Yao went down. at that point, they officially had no chance. ask the oddsmakers in Vegas about that.

but you know what? they clearly don't give a fuck about chance. and that is a beautiful thing to see. a rarity in sports.

[ducks]

you're reading the Feminine Mystique? what are you taking? a course called "how to be a pussy", taught by Sashette?

[hhml]

i'm not trying to rub it in. in all seriousness, what happened to Bynum? with no Yao and no Mutumbo, who's stopping him?

Playoff pressure?

[Ice009]

Did I see that game recap right? Did Kobe shove Gasol's head down there on the bench early in the game?

[iggypop123]

you're reading the Feminine Mystique? what are you taking? a course called "how to be a pussy", taught by Sashette?

the state has some race, ethnicity and gender requirement. i took it with this hot teacher i know that i talk sports all the time. easy stuff. women complaining just be sympathetic to them and you get your grade.

[Roxsfan]

great game. go rox.

[sook]

i thought that was very gay but Sasha, it seems that after his own teammates treat him poorly he always has to be a poor sport.

Great game, alot of heart. I just hope in game 7 the refs just let them play.

[Allanon]

Nobody brings up the refs...cheapens a great win. It's a man's game...you want it, go git it.

If you're scared, go get a dog.

[Indazone]

ROCKETS have 2 budding All-Stars and two near All-Stars on their team.

Budding All-Stars Aaron Brooks, Carl Landry

Near All-Star Luis Scola and Ron Artest

This team is stacked and we have depth and speed. Landry went up against Florida with their front line or 3 NBA quality 7 footers and still scored in bunches in the NCAA tournament.

This squad can get past the Lakers. I believe!!!

[Caltex2]

DId you mean 1986, knowledgeable Rockets fan?

No, I meant 1981 NBA Finals, knowledgeable Spursfan.

The rockets upset the Lakers and lost to the Celtics in 6 both years. Brush up on your history sir. :wakeup

I am not saying you did, I am saying when it comes to game 7, I want there to be zero question about who the winner is. I want no Joey Crawford, I want no Dick Bavetta, I want a nice clean fairly officiated game so there is absolutely no question in anyone's mind about the integrity of the game.

I guaran-fucking-tee you both Joey Crawford and Dick Bavetta will be reffing on Sunday...the only question is which game each one will fix...er...referee. :D
