TBH I would rather play one extra game and not have that big break in between each series. We will close it out Thurs and be ready for he Lakers this weekend. Not that it doesnt feel good to be right, but the thing is we dominated. We took the lead and pretty much controlled the game. Its not that the Lakers were just flat, they had no easy shots hardly at all. Just like Barkley said after the game... "The only consistent thing in baketball is defense." Which is the rockets game baby DEFENSE!!!! Haters will hate, but haters will get shut up pretty damned quick too.

WOOT! Nobody expected us to take game 1 and steal home court. The Lakers will rebound but at least now they know we're in this series and we're not going away easily.

Fisher should be suspended atleast 1 game. The Lakers are a bunch of bitches. Odom if your going to talk shit do it to Scola's face dont do it out of the side of your neck and wait for your temmates to come to your defense. Artest did not deserve to get ejected, but somebody had to payfor Fisher being gone. I fully expect the Rockets to come out strong at home in the next 2 games. This series is going to be a long one, b/c the Rockets are not scared of these punks.

AB...I got one question for you?! WHO THE HELL IS VON WAFER and why does he think he can smart mouth Adelman or whatever? Wasn't dude in the D-League last season? I think the Lakers have their hands full right now. Farmar is the only guard they have that has a chance of staying in front of Brooks or Lowry. I hated the Grizzlies gave up Lowry, he's a great backup guard. Artest shouldn't have been ejected, but the Lakers had to do something. TNT and the NBA couldn't let Kobe go down 2-0. That'll kill their plans for Kobe vs. Lebron for the title....can't believe i'm finna say this but GO ROCKETS

I have loved to watch Kobe his whole career but he crossed the line when he gave Shane a knee to the face.Why is he talking so much?

He's a damn good bench player, but apparently needs to shut his damned mouth. As far as what you said at the end you are exactly right. They had to eject Fisher so you can bet your ass they were waiting in the weeds for the 1st Rocket to get a little out of line so theycould toss him too. They want that Lakers/Cavs so bad they can taste it. I just hope this doesnt turn into a series like the 05 Mavs one. Hydro, Artest got ejected b/c he went and told that prima donna about himself after throwing an elbow into his neck for no call. Artest tried to plead to the refs only for it to fall on deaf ears and wnet and punked Kobe's ass out.

I finally saw the highlights on SC last night and I nearly came unglued when I saw Fisher's flagrant foul on Scola. First I saw his post-game b.s. about how "guys are usually closer to you so I didn't expect him to be that far back...." that's complete bullshit because he turned and looked at where Scola was before LAUNCHING himself elbow first into his chest. Not only do I think that guy should be suspended but I also think someone should find him and break his fucking knees!
As for Artest, Kobe put an elbow in his throat. All Artest was trying to do was get the refs to call that shit, instead the T him up and throw him out of the game?? Fuck that noise.....it's on! I want some payback.

Well depending on Yao's status this series is prolly pretty much done. Oh well we made it interesting and this team has still got some learning to do together only playing 30 some odd games together since the trade and AB becoming the starter.

Well atleast we know what we will be lookin for as far as draft and free agency. This is where keeping the 83 yr old Mutombo as your back up bites us in the ass.
Series is now officially over!

Fo sho!! Funny Phil Jackson told the ESPN people to give the Rockets some f ucking credit and they didnt bleep it! He's the only person that has manned up and not made excuses for the Lakers.

well I knew at some point we would have to come back down to Earth but we crashed so hard we left a crater that can be seen from space! well at least game 6 is back at home so hopefully we can bring some intensity and at least make it close.

WAY TO GO ROCKETS!!!!
after the game 5 implosion everyone tried to write us off AGAIN. too bad for them we pulled off another "upset" to force a game 7. I would have to think this has the Lakers questioning their championship legitimacy. If they can be pushed to the limit by a depleted Houston squad that has NO large inside presence and only a handful of league castaways then imagine what will happen IF they make it to the next round.
if the refs call game 7 fairly then.....well I'm not going to jinx it but it could be HUGE!
