The league will review the throat jab by Kobe and Fisher will not be in game 3. Win or lose tonight, Rockets are looking good my Cali friends.
- I actually agree he might, because Kobe has gotten suspended for nonsense beforeakoni

It was a good game with some dirty plays by the Lakers. It's too bad that players like are in the league, especially the jawing by Kobe thinking he is the best. Laker's are not the team to beat, The Rockets are the team to beat, and Lakers have done nothing to prove that the Lakers have the depth or resilience to beat a strong rocket team.

i bet, lakers win and face denver. on east, lebron beats hawks easily and face celts. in the end, it's lebron and kobe. who wins the ring? LeBron! this is a perfect senario and everyone wants to see this happens. sorry for kobe, not winning any rings since O'neal's departure from lakers... LeBron took over the league while he was trying to rebuild lakers...

win, lose.. i don't care.. this is what makes a good playoff series. the more physical, the better.

Rockets WILL force a game 7 AND possibly win the series. Any takers?

kobe is a bitch. wish someone would have punched him, in the vagina.

After watching the replay of Kobe clearly elbowing Ron before attempting the rebound, I hope he is watching the game with Fisher from the hotel room in Houston. It will show that the NBA will not put up with dirty play. Physical play yes, dirty play no.
- but it will be a series changing call, I bet the NBA will not asses it. Just sad.irrelevant
- There are tons of elbows.. its just magnified because Ron got ejected.. watch the gameakoni
- Fisher will get suspended, Kobe won'takoni
- and artest shouldn't have been ejected.akoni
- nor should Artest have been booted from Game 3..akoni

Adjustments, adjustments, its what a series is about. As mentioned Rockets were playing balls out, and Yao was huge last night, however, that was pretty much their best punch while the Laker offense was garbage, and the lead wasn't that big. Ask Utah what happened to them the following game after Kobe had a bad shooting night in game 3 of that series. I understand Houston isn't Utah, however, Lakers offense was really the only painful part of that game that set them backwards.
Its all good in the hood, game 2 tomorrow.
I Love the playoffs
- haha, I wouldnt sasy Rockets played all out at all. I'd say we had a so-so game, without the use of our bench. Upset for sure heading to LAirrelevant

Go Clippers! ...

well it got quiet in here all of a sudden, something big happen tonight? :)

I am going to predict a huge stunner. Lakers are going to be heading to Houston down 2 games. Yao will most likely not even be a factor in the next game, it will be the Rockets bench that annihilates the Lakers in game 2.
- ok for this one i am being serious when I say this... you must be drinking heavily.akoni
- call it what you want to, the adjustments Phil will make will not prepare them for our bench, which clearly wasn't even a factor tonight. Just imagine if it was.irrelevant
