Official LAKERS VS ROCKETS GAME 1 - MONDAY 5/4 TNT

[Burton Guster]

This is some sloppy !%! play on our part. We can't even make simple passes.

 

[travman24]

Don't know why everyone so susprised. We had a week off and you know how the Lakers are when we get a long break. Well be better in the second half.

 

[MVP]

Eh, Houston should be up by more than 3. We'll shake off that rust in the 2nd half, we'll be much sharper

 

[misterp0315]

We are lucky to be down 3.

 

[fearless]

lakers need to play better at the 2nd half, only 3pts game

 

[bigmike23]

horrible half by the lakers and still only down 3. rockets ant winning %+#$

time to go watch 24

 

[akajae]

nice shot by Kobe...

hopefully it's a sign of things to come.

 

[nublee]

I don't know why, but that heave by Ron Artest was mad funny

 

[th0mas cr0wn]

Kobe looks like he's going through the motions


and everyone has butter fingers, while Houston is playing good D and we're ONLY down 3



Let's go, the push gotta start in the 3rd

 

[Bonafide]

Atleast he didnt lie

Neither team is playing particularly well.

[knightngale]

lakers are in good shape considering they played terrible

1-5 and 4-12 for our best offensive players

I'm confident this will be a win unless they play worse in the second half or Artest continues his out of body experience

 

[mht214]

Ron Artest is an unpredictable dude...
This was interesting 1st half to say the least..

[moneymike9]

Ugh...we're extremely lucky that we only down 3.

That was an ugly half.

 

[mosk33toe]

Lakers have the ball the first possession of the second half, that is going to be a crucial possession!

im guessing Ron banked a difficult 3 pointer with the shot clock going off?

 

[713 STUNNA]

All these laker fans with all ther excuses were rusty, playin sloppy, or kobes under the weather... Yall are jus playin like trash... And this is how wegotta play to win this series a scrappy one.

 

[blaxoid]

I love how TNT combines Angels & Demons with the NBA playoffs and tries to make it all dramatic..

I mean come on!! what person watching would go 'wow thats cool'??

 

[jretro23]

if you weren't looking at the score this whole time you'd think houston would be up by at least 10.

lakers gotta pick it up, and kobe has to stop forcing.

and yet we're only down by 3

 

[percy.]

Bad 1st half, Rockets defending well in the first half, and Lakers aren't playing well at all.

Our passes aren't sharp and we have like 10 PIP when we average more than that.

Pau has to get going, only 1-5 with 4 points isn't helping.

We're lucky we are only down by 3, we need open up that defense though.
