Coaching the Knicks was already a suicide for his career from the start of this season :beaten: :hehe:

The Clippers beat the Rockets 89-81. What on earth happened to the Rockets? I really thought they are one of the strongest team in the west with the Yao-McGrady combo. And now, they are the cellar dweller in the southwest division :shakehead:

too bad for the rockets...
but hurray for the clippers, they finally broke their losing streak. :woot:

Lakers lead the Rockets by 11 at the half, 42-31. :thumbsup:

Guh, the dopey Lakers show up in the second half, so they lose, 76-74. :shakehead:

Lakes couldn't beat a Yao Ming-less Rocket team. :shakehead: :bleh:

Man, that's a close game. Was it a come-from-behind win by the Rockets?

Yup.

The Lakers didn't show up in the third quarter.

They tied it, then let T-Mac score a uncontested layup with 0.3 seconds left. :shakehead:

Great defense. :bleh: :shakehead:

Woah! 0.3 seconds left and he was still able to pull off a layup :shocked: .....that's Super! That shows the careless defence by the Lakers :shakehead:

Well, when he started his drive to the hole, there was about 2-3 seconds left... The Lakes played "matador" defense, so T-Mac scored.

Guh. :bleh:

Oh I see. But still, a layup with 2-3 seconds left......a jump shot would be acceptable but a layup, really a bad defence there. Phil Jackson need to work things out more, especially with the Lakers' big men.

I thought T-Mac made a jump shot, was it a layup with 0.3 sec left? :headscratch:

I'm going to the Laker game tonight :mrgreen:

let's see how their triangle offense is tonight, they are still getting use to it....
will Kobe have a big game, and will Lamar, Mihm, smush, reach double digits in points? Kobe needs big time help... :bonk:

62 points for Kobe! :bow: Quote from Phil Jackson: "Pretty good night" That would be like saying, "Ryoko is a nice girl" :shakehead:

Well, she is. ;)

And Kobe scored that 62 in just three quarters, 30 in the third quarter alone... :sweat:

The previous record at Staples was 61 points by the fat guy that plays in Miami now. Kobe beats it in just 3 quarters HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
