RE: 2nd game between Rockets and Lakers…No one should be ejected. Its a physical sport. Its the playoffs. You foul or get fouled. Things is, when Kobe fouls its not a big thing. Artest is a man. Even though the call was wrong against him, he had to go to Kobe and give him a verbal warning. They are both very physical. Thats cool, but the throat thing, can’t happen again. When Kobe does it again, he has had his verbal warning. The Rockets have to plan the refs and the Lakers. Its a physical game. When someone keeps elbowing you and the refs look the other way, it sets the fire into place. You don’t fight to be a man, you fight BECAUSE you are man. Foul should have been called on Kobe. Seems the Lakers are hand picked to wind. The Rockets have something to say about that.

He is going to get what Artest warned him he would get if he did that again. You don’t fight to be a man, you fight BECAUSE you are man. Foul should have been called on Kobe. Thats all I hve to say about that.

As long as Timmy suits up you got a chance Ian..

I just hope he doesnt tear into Pau’s ass tonight.. Pau had a DECENT game last night but it looks like hes playing on tired legs to me.. and no Bynum to slow him down could get ugly.. i just dont want to see Mbenga on him.. it could real ugly real fast..

LMAO @ “if im a fan sitting court side i go up a few stairs just in case.”

Ian, you ready for tonight? Spurs-Lakers Shit is always like christmas

@ Lakeshow (#29) Good post, good points

@ Prof Tx and “Calls like this make it look like the Lakers will be hand-picked for the finals. Stern gets his ratings and marketing machine moving and doesn’t care if the rules get a little bent in the process.”

I hope you right and the lakers are “guaranteed a finals spot” I know that ain’t true and it’s a bad argument to pick one game versus Houston as makin any kind of dent in the playoffs

OK ok.. lemme say it.. Chris Paul is a monster no doubt.. I prefer Deron and would rather watch his game but i cant deny that CP3 puts up SICK numbers.. that man is a stat machine..

And Kobe vs. RonRon?? Kobe owns Ron Artest in their head to heads.. i remember when Artest went to Sacramento and i thought to myself “shit they got someone to stop Kobe” then in the first meet Kobe dropped 30 and some nice dimes on him.. Ron Artest just got pissed because he was actually winning (finally) and thought they would come out and manhandle Kobe.. ehhh dont think so..

@ ProfTx

So you saying Ron Artest is a clean defender?? cuz you can shut that shit down right there.. you know what i have a problem with?? when good defensive teams get away with shit because of their “repuation”.. Boston is allowed to be physical as hell and they dont nearly get the same amount of calls as, say, the Bucks would if they played like that.. Boston in the Finals was allowed to manhandle us..

Shit even last night on Sportscenter/NBA TV (dunno) they said Ron Artest got away with a lot of shit he shouldnt have.. like i said refs dont know how to call Kobe because they dont like him (so dont feel too bad haters).. one second he’ll get mugged going to the rim with no whistle then next he’ll get the call on some weak ass body bump which had little contact.. its annoying but hey..

and big ups to Josh Powell for showing up!
