so instead of beating the suns and resting the banged up starters on wednesday, the team takes the hard route to finish the season.

tomarrow its the houston rockets vs the lakers, three corrupt refs, david stern, nba execs/marketers/shareholders, espn writers and ratings officials, lakers beat writers, bookkeepers, hotel food poisoning staff, and some black magic/voodoo person who'll be a last resort if all else fails. wonderful . way to stack the odds against you

great position the rockets put themselves in huh? last season it was patterson ending the season as the starting center. this time its losing to the suns and hoping to beat the lakers, instead of beating the suns and resting the starters for the lakers, aka one of the worst games to play for any team not named the lakers.

royce white should get 5minutes and hope whoever gets injured on our team it'll be in those 5 minutes lol

all jokes aside, i hope its one of the most entertaining games of the season for a rockets fan. both teams have something big on the line. the last day of the regular season, almsot eveyr team is playing.

here's some sick highlights between the two teams in previous matchups. they've had some wildly entertaining games against each other, especially when we had battier on kobe.

Bro its April still not May!

Lakers have everything to lose, and even if you lose, you get to face Spurs instead of Nuggets...and that actually doesn't sound like a bad thing to me.

Who do you guys want to face in 1st round, Spurs or Nuggets?

If we lose, we face the Thunder, not the Spurs.

potentially the most exciting game of the entire season in the league. would be insane with kobe.

I wonder how many more free throw attempts the Lakers will get in this game

Jazz fan here.

Now I know we've had our differences... but for the love of God please throw us a bone and WIN tonight!

you guys need to pull your weight in this too.

refs for tonight's Lakers-Rockets game:
Ken Mauer
Eric Lewis
Gary Zielinski

I guess at least we don't have Joey Crawford tonight but Mauer has had some controversies too.

refs for tonight's Warriors-Blazers game:
Bill Spooner
Violet Palmer
Leon Wood

refs for tonight's Jazz-Grizzlies game:
James Capers
Mark Ayotte
Sean Wright

i guess it is true what they say about the rockets....youngest team is just too unpredictable...now they have to make it hard for themselves and win this game...shoulda taken care of it against the suns....oh well.

how is this thread not stickied yet? one of the biggest, if not the biggest game of the season is gonna be grouped will all those other lame threads?

Rooting for Utah and Houston tonight. Please beat this Laker team.

We need to win and hopping for Utah to win. Threw up a little and now I must shower and brush my teeth but I don't think I can ever wash this dirtiness off

No chance we win tonight

Lakers in playoffs makes too much money for the league. I'm not a conspiracy theorist that wears tin foil hats, but when option A makes more money than option B, the people running the business will do anything to ensure option A happens.

Biggest game of the year! Lakers favored by 3. Let's go into Staples center and crush their spirits! I have a feeling that the Rockets will step up in this critical game, after being humiliated Monday. Lin will play well, it's against the Lakers on national television. But watch out for Blake, he's been on fire, gotta shut him down.

LET'S GO ROCKETS!!!

Can only hope we get so far ahead of them early that even with favorable calls they will lose

well, as long as Utah loses, Lakers can still make the playoffs.

I Was soooooo close to taking a sickie at work today. But I can't. Beat LA. I'll post more thoughts once I get home from work today. I have the NBA game time App on my phone, but I'll have to wait to get home to see footage.

I'm watching the Utah game and rooting for them. Makes me want to go to the rice hotel and jump from the roof of it head first...
