GameThread for Los Angeles Lakers at Houston Rockets, Nov 4, 2009 7:30 PM CST

Los Angeles Lakers at Houston Rockets, Nov 4, 2009 7:30 PM CST


And here comes a big test for the Rockets. Home game against the defending NBA Champions. Rematch of the second round. This time the worst part of that Rockets series, Artest (who I still have a special place in my heart for) plays for the bad guys.

wow

I never thought I would be bummed that Chase Budinger isn’t playing… but… damn, I’m bummed he’s out.

by grungedave on Nov 4, 2009 5:33 PM CST reply actions  

that sucks....

i thought he would be good to go today, could really use him. but i think gasol is still going to be out right? not to say he is up to gasols level already, but thats still points comin at ya on both sides. what’s the official word for his return?

Surprisingly entertaining games in New York and Minnesota

Actually, I guess Pacers/Knicks isn’t too surprising (they both suck, but neither is unbelievably bad), but the fact that the T-Wolves are leading at the end of the 1st is kind of weird.

So if Kobe is hot in the first quarter vs the Rockets

Does that mean that he’s going to cool down in the fourth? Or go for 200?

Artest booed when he had position

lol

I’d probably boo, if I were there. Not because I hate the guy or anything, but just because I like booing.

Yeah, it sucks that Bud’s not playing…

… but thank God it sounds like a minor injury…

Trevor Ariza's "handles" vs. Artest's over-agressiveness

That could make for some fun tonight

www.TheDreamShake.com Co-Founder and Writer

by UofTOrange on Nov 4, 2009 7:51 PM CST reply actions  

Artest's handles are probably worse

But his recovery is MUCH better because of how strong he is. I mean, he lost the ball about 60% of the drive last year, but got it back all but maybe 2%

afaik

he didn’t have an option on his contract. However, the Rockets didn’t make an offer to extend his contract.

Morey probably wants to:
1) Have cap flexibility this summer
2) Be able to offer another expiring contract in any trade.

no matter who is on the team…Houston never gets the call

Goats of the game

Brooks – 7 turnovers, especially late in the game. Missed 3 FTs, 15 pts on 12 shots

Ariza – 15 points on 21 shots. 2-7 from three. Battier 2-8 from three.

Adelman – not giving more minutes to Landry

The absolute worst call

was Kobe’s 3 point play with 1:30 to go. The Rockets didn’t even contest the shot. Normally a point doesn’t matter, but obviously in this game, it did.

yea AB cannot miss FT's

if he did not, we would have won.

yankees win the world series

rockets lose, yankees win…bad night for me…i cant stand the yanks

bad ass game

sucks the rockets couldn’t pull it off and decided to not even ATTEMPT a shot in the final 13 seconds, but such is life.

i think the fact that i’m sitting here bitching about an overtime loss to the lakers to begin with makes me excited about this team.

tough loss tonight but lessons learned for the younger folks.

They looked discombobulated at the end of the game

Why didn’t they take a timeout? it looked like they were scrambling and weren’t sure what they were supposed to be doing
