Houston= Better then we thought, LA= Not as good as we thought?

[.:DaYg0sTyLz:.]

Which is it?

[teecee]

I don't think it's either really.

L.A.= most talented team, but not working hard enough (SOFT).  Will still win game 7

Houston= playing way over their heads, playing desperate and INSPIRED bball  with nothing to lose, no pressure

Agreed.   In sports, whichever team wins is the best.  Case closed.  In this case, it is almost impossible to even comprehend that THIS Rockets team was able to take the Lakers to game 7. 

[Chamillitary Click]

i find it hilarious that EVERY Laker fan wrote the Rockets off, saying T-Mac, Artest & Yao won't win.

now there is no T-Mac or Yao & their taking the Lakers to a game 7.

Lakers are to soft as Bynum is average at best and Gasol doesnt know what defense is while Houston is playing with courage, passion and heart.  That is why this series is going to game 7

I can't believe how bad Gasol was on defense last game.  And Bynum is so lazy on defense; he is out of position and always gets reach in fouls, etc.

Bynum is terrible.  I think Odom is a awesome player so I am not dissing the rest of LA besides Kobe but Bynum is complete trash. Yeah Gasol is amazing offensively but one of the worst defensive big men I have ever seen.

The crazy thing about this is that the Rockets are doing this even with Artest playing sub-par and shooting so badly.   

If the Rockets win, and that is a HUGE if, then this could be a monumental, historical upset.   


Scola and Brooks?  Not exactly household names

correct

because Kobe is a team player
and Artest is a team leader

the Lakers aren't as bad as this series makes them look, but the last few months they have not been as good as everyone thought

after they got all the recognition for beating Boston and Cleveland on the road, they decided to coast through

while they were winning they were winning ugly and easier said then done, they could have done much better with like 5% more effort

it's the same story every game and there are way too many inconsistent players on the roster

when they are on their A-game they can't be fucked with, but these teams know they don't play D so they cut to the basket

even more frustrating is that they know how to win and they still don't do the right things

how hard is it for Gasol to JOG to the paint to catch a pass, rather than taking it 18-feet out and dribbling and posting up from 15... it's sickening

Would you rather see Kobe act as if everything is OK after these losses....or show that he is fuckin pissed at the teams performance?  Im sure I know the answer. I think he's too concerned with his image (which is already fucked, so who cares). He doesnt need to call out individuals (as he is SUPPOSED to be the leader). But he can at least act like he's fuckin angry at their lackluster performances during this series.

I was thinking more because he does seem like a natural leader...
