The Rockets & Lakers

[Kramer]

the Rockeets won.

even though Kobe scored 45.

woo hoo. apparently there were plenty of boos when he was intro'ed at the staples center.

[recks]

He was booed then cheered after he put up 45, lakers fans

Laker's should have won, 19 missed free throws and they even scored an own goal, hilarious

on a side note, how pissed did Steve Francis look to be out of the rotation, looked like he was going to cry the whole game

[Zanchief]

Steve Francis is terrible, let the little bitch cry.

I'm a closet Lakers fan just because of Kobe. He's my number one favorite non-Canadian non-Raptors player in the league. He gets so much unwarranted grief its ridiculous.

Anyway. They kept it close with a team that's supposed to be one of the best in the West. Maybe next time Bynum can show up on time and not be benched for the first half~

I'm sure getting told off on national TV by Phil Jackson should insure that

(Kirilenko killed for you in fantasy last night, almost a triple and 5 blks!)

[Zanchief]

He may not give me a ton of points but he's going to get me everything else!

[Arlos]

I want to see a quintuple double dammit! points, rebounds, assists, blocks & steals!

I know a quadruple double's only been done 4 times since they started tracking blocks & steals, but dammit, we need a quintuple! heh.

[Zanchief]

Its almost impossible.

[Kramer]

yeah there have been several stories about ol Francis in the Houston Chronicle in the past week...

apparently McGrady even was quoted saying that he had lost a step... he's defeinitely not "Franchise" anymore, THOUGH he might be better than Rafer Alston

[Zanchief]

I think Rafer's going to be the starter there all year. He's not perfect, and he's a little bit of a haedcase, but he runs the floor like few other point-guards, and he's got a pretty good shot.

For his price he's perfect for that team. James will just be a gunner of the bench and Head, well I'm not sure what you guys are going to do with Head~

Francis is going to rot at the end of the bench behind those three guys all year, IMO.

[Kramer]

i think most in Houston think that too
