ClutchFans Game Thread: Rockets @ Lakers 12/15/2006

Actually, we got a MUCH better shot than I thought we would.

Its pretty easy to defend Yao with double-triple teams when you KNOW he's the only option (ie - the team needs one good shot).

The fact that Rafer was so helter-skelter allowed Yao to get a decent look.

 

I cant handle this . . .Feels like a playoff game

 

West Coast games make me sleepy. Double OTs make me lose my sleep for good.

 

Prediction: Yao will foul out early in 2nd OT and Rox will be in big trouble fro there.

 

classic game, right there.......

 

2nd OT. Ugh. Yao's either going to foul out or collapse. Either way we're in serious trouble.

 

Damn Refs

 

is anyone elses heart racing every shot we take?

 

2nd Overtime! Yao is exhausted and has 5 fouls. Not a good combination.



BUT What the hell, lets go ROX!!! Come on 5 more minutes!!Pull this one out!!

 

I wish we could get a last shot like that instead of what we did last night.

 

What the **** does Yao need to do to get a foul call? Have Kwame stab him in the chest with a knife?

 

Yao is going to sleep all day tomorrow. He's going to play over 40 minutes tonight.

 

Confidence in a player who has gone 14/35 this game and missed more game winning shots than he's hit?

Why?

 

Prediction: Yao still fouls out, but the bench brigade is too fast for the Lakers, who already got accustomed to the Rockets dumping-it-into-Yao offense.

 

yao has gone to the line 6 times in 53 minutes of basketball. doesnt seem reasonable.

 

ok, say you were lucky to predict it right. Does that make you feel so good?

 

all of our players will need a day off tomorrow

besides Alston

 

Because he is Kobe and that's what he's done over his career.

 

This is bench time. Yao need 1-2 minutes to relax a bit.

 

I have work in 6 hours and I am still up hoping we will win a game that right now does not look good.

Yao is all of our offense and on his last legs with 5 fouls and the Lakers gunning for him.

I should just go to bed now.
