fuckinay. i was holding my newborn baby girl. she was 13 hours old when the last tick came off the clock.

ready for tomorrow night's game. we need to win this one cuz the calls will eventually go Portland's way when we go back there.

good all around defense by the Rockets. we almost had a customary 4th quarter collapse there with 3 minutes remaining but somehow we pulled it off.

Note to Rockets:

Don't breath on Brandon Roy. You will get called for the foul. I was shocked they actually called the charge on him tonight.

Go Rockets!

Battier and Hayes were what it took down the stretch.

Wafer is a freakin animal and Lowry is a freakin bulldog.

i liked Artest flexing after taking Roy to the rack.

Well the refs took us out of this ************. Rockets in 6.

I'll go ahead and call it now. "The NBA" will hold the Lakers and Cavs hands right to the finals. I'm pretty sure this is set in stone and Stern will make it happen.

The other series are getting pushed as far as they can go so the Lakers and Cavs get well rested.

I've thought the NBA has been ******* rigged for years.

I told my friend the Rockets would win tonight, but when I said that I forgot about the horrible reffing in Portland.

I agree. We played like garbage down the stretch, but when your team is down the entire game by 7-11 points and you fight back to go up by 4 then you get 4 or 5 horrible calls against you in a 2 minute span of time it's a huge blow against you.

Artest was pissing me off last night too. Although he did well at times, Aaron Brooks looked like a lost kid on the junior high B-Team during most of the game.

Scola was a badass as usual.

I like the Rockets and all, but I think they need a name change to the Houston Misfits.You don't know from one game to the next what you are going to get.

If they do get pass the Trailblazers...there will be no hope of them getting pass the Lakers. I don't say this because I think the Lakers are so much better, because I don't...but because they just simply can't play like they have been playing. These stupid turnovers, missed open shots and missed free throws are going to bury them.

Not to use the referees bad calls as excuses, but there have been some very bad calls against the Rockets in this series.

Wait until/if we play the Lakers. I won't watch that series at home for fear of throwing my remote at the tv and breaking it.
If you think the calls have been bad against us in this series just wait until we play the golden boys.

I feel sorry for the fans of teams that will play the Cavs. If you look at LeBron, a foul is called and he gets to shoot free throws.

The NBA has the most inconsistent officiating in all of professional sports.

Now you are thinking. LeBron is carried around the same way MJ was. Not to take anything away from the men as players but the league protects their investments and understand that this is entertainment. Just like any investment, the owner of the investment "NBA" wants to make as much revenue as possible. LA-Cleveland will bring in much more money than Houston-Chicago.

Which is why the NBA and David Stern can suck on some monkey *****.

They need to change their name to the NBE in that case.
