Way to skirt the point. snitching to the cops was a bitch move, but you act like everything was roses and rainbows between Shaq and Kobe before that. They flatout hated eachother from the moment they both arrived in LA. Shaq had every right to leave...even though he was under contract...yet Kobe DIDN'T have every right to demand a situation that he felt was best for him...when he was a free agent. Great logic at work.

I agree that 2 super egos collided but dont you always defer to the Big man? Didnt Magic and Lakers do this with Kareem when he was unhappy? Kobe wanted to run his own show and now hes living by it. I'll be damned if i'm a teammate and take that shit from him. That "one-man" show shit, pathetic...because last I checked he didnt average 90+ ppg...leave those type of comments to the media.

do you always defer to the bigman? Yes. But how much longer can you be expected to defer (both Kobe and the front office) to a guy who can't be bothered to get in shape for an entire season, who constantly picks fights in the media, and who DECLINED a 3 year/$25 million extension?

For everything Shaq ****ed up with(which you explain), would that shit matter if another title was won? No. And now you got a scrambling franchise and time running out with one of the best scorers in history. And dont bring up the shaq of now, lets talk about when he was still pretty damn dominating in 04-05.
 
Someone can start guarding Millsap,that would be nice!
 
WTF Howard was mauled :\
 
WTF WTF WAS HOWARD CALLED FOR A T!

WTF IS THIS SHIT

NBA REFS SUCK

should be a double T!
 
It seems every year in the playoffs the lack of quality in the nba refs is exposed. I know it is a tough game to officiate, but when obvious calls like the Juwan-Okur deal are blown, it is pathetic. I mean, how can Howard get called for a tech? Okur went after him!

That was such a horrible call.

But i've seen worse.


*clap* *clap* *clap* *clap* *clap*
 
God I love the Tmac that drives to the rim.
 
WTF is Yao still on Boozer,he's too damn slow :|
 
:lol :lol

HAHA awesome foul,**** these dirty Jazz,fight them back with the same shit
 
You let it go Okur? :lol

little bitch
 
Man if Shane could start hitting his wide open 3's that would be nice.
 
look..... Im a Rockets fan. Im biased.

can anyone else see that they let people just bounce off of Yao all day long and never call a foul unless blood is drawn or skin is bruised?

there was an exchange where Howard missed a layup on a drive down the middle of the lane and there appeared to be quite a bit of contact. no call.

Boozer ends up running the court off the miss and goes for a layup down the middle of the lane there was minimal contact. foul.

the biggest problem I have is that they almost never replay those plays where I wanna see if they really are fouling or not.

it just seems to be so one sided in the Jazz series and in a lot of the games I watched near the end of the season.

I also hate all the swatting at the ball the Jazz do and they hardly ever get called for reach ins. Im sure their whole team has great hands.

sometimes I hate NBA basketball.
 
He'll get going. Head hit his first 3 so that is a good sign. With T-Mac being aggressive I believe the Rockets can pull this one out. Keep taking it to the rack T-Mac. Please.

Yeah, he actually started slumping towards the end of the regular season. Hopefully Head will get more shots in the 2nd half as he may have shot his way out of his slump last game. I think that Howard, Head, and Shane are going to have to step their games up in the 2nd half for the Rockets to win this one.

Yao is just an NBA big guy that doesn't get NBA big guy calls.

I'm convinced if he was a poorer FT shooter he'd get to the line more. Yao can win games at the line so I think the NBA tries to avoid that.
 
I hope TNT accepts my Friend Request!!!!


Yao is so big that the refs feel that by allowing him to get beat up they are somehow leveling the field. That is some retarded logic, but that is what a senior NBA writer said on the radio the other day.
 
Game 7 here we come :lol

They should just pack up and start getting ready to head to Houston during this timeout. Have the Greek Brothers stay behind and play the rest of the game out.

Yep,Rockets just cant play a decent 3rd in Utah.
 
Dammit! They have shut down Yao and T-Mac, yet they won't pass the ball to anyone else!!!! Penetrate and dish out!!! SHIT!!!
 
Tmac was hacked :lol

Great block my ass.
 
Mashing said:
Man, T-Mac only has 1 assist.


He has already forgot that his PASSING is what won game 5. They are totally collapsing on him and he refuses to pass the ball to anyone who is not Yao. So that means everyone else is ice cold and when T-Mac sits they will be throwing up bricks.
 
Keep driving to the basket. We're getting back into this game at the line because they're calling the fouls on the Jazz finally.

And then Hayes can't handle a good pass.

Damn, this is the Yao/T-Mac quarter.
 
Damn T-mac I hate those long ass 3's :( and then the stupid pass to Hayes.Driving and going to the foul line got us back in this.

Ughhh just dumb things to do in a huge game.
 
way to blow a golden oppurtunity. the refs were calling the fouls and then T-mac shoots that 3 and Hayes misses another pass.

the 3 would have been big but why pass to Hayes?
