3/16 Lakers v. Rockets (Where 22 Happens)

[nyk buc]

i think phil needs to exploit odom. since the rockets don't double, odom scored 2 straight times with ease over hayes and scola. but then they forget abouthim.

odom is a legit offensive option but for some reason he doesn't get 15-16 shots

Stop it. With all of our injuries who syas we make the playoffs? If we lose these next 2 games PHX will be 1 in the divison and we will be a 6th or 7th seed.

Obviously but thats where being a fan of your team comes in. I am confident Lakers will get it together and make the playoffs.

 

[akajae]

^ you sound silly.

all this bickering is disgusting.

edit: I hope we play the rockets in the playoffs. should be fun.

 

[toy collector123]

@ Kobe shooting 6-17, face it buddy, your not gonna score big points on the rockets today, it just isn't happening son, how bout you pass the rock a lil bit eh? MVP my %%@. Ah well it don't matter, he can keep doing what he do as the Lakers get stomped in the process.

dude they're playing the BEST DEFENSE in the L by far. there's a reason they are holding teams to 86ppg on 37% shooting in the last 10 games. they shut down lebron for one half just right after teh all-star break to the tune of 0-8.

plus, they're missing pau. but i think the lakers are really dumb. odom proved that hayes or anyone cannot guard him and he's not getting more shots.

Aint the Lakers supposed to be the "best team in the western conference", and Kobe is "supposedly the best player in the NBA supposedly a MVP candidate" right? I don't wanna hear those excuses. Kobe and the Lakers should be able to at least compete with a depleted Rockets squad yet their getting their collective ***%# handed to them today. Lakers are soft with no heart and thats because of their supposed leader.

Wow...you just don't get it do. ONE game? One damn game and you want to discredit everything this team has done all year? If the rockets have a bad gameare they going to be horrible? Celitcs lost to the bobcats are they horrible? Come on man. Watch basketball and stop hating the lakers.

Don't you hate the western conference?

Can't stand it diddy!

3PLEDOUBLE must be your brother...

 

[lalakerfan213]

It is impossible to play any worse in the second half.

and Rick Adelman is their coach, so we have a chance.

what is your major malfunction? do you not understand that it is odom who does not want to shoot?

anyways the officiating has been horribly one sided for the rockets BUT this laker team is highly overrated

dude, lakers are a great team man. without gasol and bynum, they are simply a borderline 7/8 seed. but they'll get gasol back soon and bynum. stophatin'. you don't judge a team by ONE GAME.

Shaq, Jordan, Magic, Rodman, and T-mac.

Only weakness is if it's a close game, the opposing team will use the Hack A Shaq and Hack A Rodman strategy.

But then again, NO game will be ever be close enough for that to happen.

 

[mjshoefanatic]

Laker bench better step it up or the L.A. Kobe's won't even have a chance ftw!!

you wouldn't say that if this team has yao. easily with yao, this team is the best team in the L. but yea, you'll go farther b/c you'll get pau and bynum back.

Wow, so 10 games ago and before that the Rockets were EASILY the best team in the league? I'm sorry but im not buying that.

Instead, they're dumping the ball off to Luke freakin' Walton.

In order for the Lakers to win, they just gotta do 3 things.

1. Kobe taking iniative. Taking it to the rack, getting some calls, and eventually that'll open up D-Fish, Vlad and Sasha for 3's.

2. Post up Odom on Scola/Hayes. Odom should abuse those guys in the paint.

3. Box out to avoid second chance points.

Lamar Odom does not have the mental capacity to post down low for more than 2 consecutive times

walton thinks he is the best play maker in the game so he will hog the ball at times
Kobe is afraid to go to the basket as much right now and mess upthat finger even more

 

[bullsrepeat3peat]

damn what's up with Fish

wow everything you just said is about the rockets. Rockets shouldn't be in the playoff race, straight garbage, need help, and once again,even if your team makes the playoffs, they won't see out of the 1st round. Lakers would spank that butt with a series with the rockets. I pray the sunsplay them.. because if I were you I get the brrooooooms out early!!!

atthe rockets being called title contenders.

 

[MambaMentality824]

Oh yeah, I am not discounting the Rockets at all. I think this streak is absolutely amazing. Especially without Yao for 9 games. IMO they definitely play thebest TEAM basketball in the NBA.

 

[mjshoefanatic]

What happened to Farmar and "The Machine"?

Well missing Gasol and Bynum, we ARE not much better than a .500 team, which is what the record showed last year when we didn't have Gasol and Bynum hadnot developed yet.

 

[htownrox14]

Lakers trying to make this a game... Tmac we need you to show up now...

 

[nyk buc]

tmac gotta start takin' over right now. role players are missin' now.

 

[Burton Guster]

[paul is on tilt]

T-Mac, you're killing me with your shooting percentage
