Rockets take advantage of karmic gift - come back to beat Lakers by double digits

by grungedave on Nov 15, 2009 11:10 PM CST in Random Commentary Comment 13 comments

The Rockets started slow tonight. Real slow. As in, 16 quick points without much resistance for the Lakers.

Then Ron Artest pissed off the basketball gods.

Now, as much as I love you Crazy Pills - when Trevor Ariza lost his shoe and you intentionally threw it into the crowd - that probably wasn't the best idea. Karma is a bitch, dude.

Plus, you now owe Trevor Ariza breakfast, as that was a dick move.

Clutchfans has it

Got it up midway through the first quarter, too. Really quick.

How many Biletnikoffs does he have? NOT TWO!

Ariza is not a good matchup for Kobe. He's quick enough, taller, and can at this point, jump higher than Kobe.

Dave, thank you for feeding the fires of a legit grudge against Artest.

Also, how the hell is it he can shoot 50%+ against us, yet so rarely did that FOR us.

Go on, try to beat them. Try to score on them. Stay in front of those guards. Try to tap out an offensive rebound on that Lilliputian front line. They're so awful, you're so good ... go on. Beat ‘em. - Kelly Dwyer on The Rockets

I really wish I'd recorded this game so I could post a clip of the shoe toss.

Hopefully it makes the highlights- there needs to be recorded evidence of Artest’s dickery.

What a game…

… they play a dud game VS the Kings but come back from behind VS the Lakers to beat them in LA.

Maybe that lost to Sacramento motivated the Rockets tonight…

I had to stop arguing with drunks, Steeler fans, and all other fools.
It was making my brick wall jealous...

There’s nothing wrong with Artest that…

… a lobotomy wouldn’t cure…
