Lakers-Rockets Open Thread
Los Angeles Lakers at Houston Rockets, Nov 4, 2009 5:30 PM PST
Welcome to Houston, home of Enron and a tattoo parlor I once saw there called Tat Dat Azz. These days, of course, it's also home to our old friend Trevor Ariza, pictured above in an Earl Campbell throwback.
(No, sorry. That's... I guess that's just an old picture of Earl Campbell.)
The Lakers are favored by 2 1/2 points tonight, a piece of information I pass along for the gamblers out there. And if you're not a gambler, you should really think about becoming one. It's fun, profitable and legal in some places!
And did you know the USFL had a franchise called the Houston Gamblers? Ahhh, it's all coming together, isn't it? The circle of life is a beautiful thing.
This is your open thread. Let's make some sweet music together.

I'm feeling strangely confident for this game
been watching some of these other games with quite a few teams on the second half doubleheaders tonight and most aren’t playing terribly. I’ll go on a limb and say 2nd unit plays great tonight.
That's not going out on a limb.

They wont look down
and they spent money on some ACME contraptions that actually work instead of fizzling out
i'm betting that artest is going to try shut down trevor?
and kobe will still want to humiliate shane battier
but the aaron brooks problem remains unsolved
nor drew’s “blackstar”—chuck hayes :p.
I want to see Shannon guard Brooks at least somewhat credibly tonight.
And yes I am a 2009 World Champion Fan.

Timberwolves could pull off this win against Boston with a 3 point lead in the first quarter
had the shot clock never been invented
I take that back
if they can keep the game at this fast pace, it might be possible.
Boston likes a slower defensive pace
their games are usually in the 80’s-90’s, so a faster-paced, higher scoring game might be what it takes to get a win from them. I can’t see another team beating Boston by playing better defense, only playing better offense.
SashaPova
better shot well. He is seriously due!

"A bizarre and extremely rare hybrid Blazer/Laker fan, Timbo has always struggled to contain the Beast Within, like Dr. Jekyll, Bruce Banner, or Ted Kennedy." — Miled Animal
Lakers spokesman John Black confirmed prior to L.A.’s Wednesday night contest in Houston that Gasol’s doctors in Spain agreed with the diagnosis of L.A.’s doctors and team athletic trainer Gary Vitti that the injury is healed.
What did the Lakers say about the MRI?
"A bizarre and extremely rare hybrid Blazer/Laker fan, Timbo has always struggled to contain the Beast Within, like Dr. Jekyll, Bruce Banner, or Ted Kennedy." — Miled Animal
Gasol has been cleared to resume basketball activities, which he commenced by running, jumping and shooting prior to the Rockets game. The All-Star forward is also expected to practice on Thursday, and if there’s no set back, he is cleared to play in games as soon as Phil Jackson thinks Gasol is ready to conditioning wise.
Per Mike Trudell (Lakers Insider)
GREAT! I feel better already.

Lakers forward Pau Gasol has been cleared to begin all basketball-related activities after an MRI exam showed he did not have a slight tear in his right hamstring.
Gasol might practice tomorrow and has an outside chance at playing Friday against Memphis.
A less-sophisticated sonogram exam showed that Gasol might have sustained a slight tear, but the MRI exam showed only a strain, a less-severe injury.
Gasol will miss his fifth game tonight against Houston.
— Mike Bresnahan
The Pau Gasol news is really good.
But I too hope they aren’t rushing him back at all, which I doubt they are.
yes please!
i need a link!

by DexterFishmore on Nov 4, 2009 6:09 PM PST up reply actions
kobe went out
and the focus was on getting the ball in the paint which seemed to open up the outside shooting. Also Farmar comes in and it forces Brooks to play defense. Going small was very effective. On a side note, I really like how Artest just muscles his way to the basket.

With Powell and Artest the
Lakers just seem tougher in the paint.

Walton seems like he's actually stagnating the offense
The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing the world he didn't exist.
Maybe no one will admit it but I will
WhyTF? does Kobe have to post up? You have to go with the biggest mismatches which are LO and Bynum. Bynum was being guarded by a 6-7 6-8 sf and Kobe posted up everytime. then when he can’t get his shot up he passes it with 5 secs in the shot clock. He doesn’t need to post up every dam time. I haven’t seen LO post up not once and he can beat anyone on this team.

yes because that is all the offense is giving him
he is the best post player on this team besides Kobe. But hasn’t posted up all night.

exactly.
something tells me if Gasol was playing Kobe would still want to post up every time.

Kobe is the best player on the Lakers
But if they concentrate on their length and posting up the longer players this game should have been over a long time ago.

Remember when Bynum missed like 3 chippies in the first quarter?

dont undderrate pau gasol like everyone else does.
He’s an all-star and an all-nba player. Of course we are hurt without him. Everyone says we don’t win a title without Kobe…but I don’t think we win one without Pau either.
The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing the world he didn't exist.
I agree but I thought we had enough depth
to be able to cover for the loss of Gasol just like we did with Bynum.
It seems i was wrong
Honestly
That was a pretty good half for the Lakers.
They can’t shoot well because they’ve got no legs. But I feel better about this game then I did when it started.
It sucks where I live
They don’t show games here because the cable provider is a bitch. Anyone knows a site that shows this game live streaming, that works??? PLeeeaasssee!!!
NBA League Pass broadband is free right now
And broadcasting the game. That’s how I’m watching.

I wish the Lakers had all those SF's that the Rockets have
coming off the bench. They are tough. How the hell does Laundry shoot a jumper and there are 3 Lakers under the basket and he still gets his own rebound and gets an And1? They just have heart. Not to mention a chip on their shoulder about last year.

Hey, what's the 5 second rule?
"I don't want to be the next Michael Jordan. I only want to be Kobe Bryant,"
-Kobe Bryant
The five-second occurs when a player, while closely guarded, holds the ball for five seconds. A closely guarded situation occurs when a player with the ball in the frontcourt is continuously guarded by an opponent within 6 feet of the player in control. The official continues the five-second count until the player in control gets his/her head and shoulders past the defender or moves to place the defender outside of the 6-foot range. The official’s five-second count will reset should the player change from dribbling the ball to holding the ball, or vice-versa.

Eh
As a backup, you could do a lot worse. As a starter playing 30+ minutes, we need a better long-term replacement.

I think he means the last play on Ariza
But I couldn’t tell what caused it, it happened so fast, Kobe might have poked it

Doesn’t seem to work out well

question who's leading the scoring race so far
Kobe is averaging 31, but I know Melo, Wade, Bosh, LBJ are having some off the charts stats as well
Melo is leading that race
With 34.5 PPG on an absolutely insane 62.6 TS%.
To secure ourselves against defeat lies in our own hands, but the opportunity of defeating the enemy is provided by the enemy himself.
thanks. I don't think the Melo man will be able to sustain this pace throughout the
season even though he’s my favorite to win the scoring title
Not THIS pace
But then, Kobe won’t be averaging 31+, either
And while Melo won’t maintain 62.6 TS%, he does seem like a likely candidate for scoring title.

good stat line...if he made his gimmes tonight he'd have been mvp no problem
but that title goes to Kobe of course. Was huge down the stretch and always giving the Lakers buckets when they needed them most.

He made some wicked shots
Someone should send video of that tape to Michael Lewis at NY Times and say “you might think about rewriting that article about Battier being able to defend Kobe”

Someone said Fisher made a big play
What was it? Did he get that game-ending steal? Cuz on the radio it sounded like Artest…
Strength & Honor
It's good to be the Champs
It was
but Fisher came up with the ball. He played solid defense all night. Almost makes up for his 0-5 shooting.
and 0 rebounds, 0 assists, hah.
Usually Fish plays well on the 2nd game of a back to back. Not tonight though.
Couldn't be Fisher
dammit, erased the game already. But Artest threw it ahead to Fisher to end the game…
"This is not a game for boys. This is a game for men." - Phil Jackson
It was hard to tell who caused it
Kobe was behind Ariza, he may have poked it or Fish, but Artest ended up with the ball. I think actually Fish about tied Ariza up, and he lost the ball, which went to Artest
"This is not a game for boys. This is a game for men." - Phil Jackson
Sounds like Artest stripped it, Fish grabbed it
Which is why Fish is credited with the steal. Though, in my mind, Artest deserves the defensive credit for the strip.
Strength & Honor
It's good to be the Champs
Ah, play-by-play says Derek Fisher steal
Guess it happened too fast for the radio guys to call it
But did he pick up the STEAL, or was he actually the guy who STRIPPED the ball?
Strength & Honor
It's good to be the Champs
Derek Fisher 0 for five
Maybe they should just put him in for special end of game or critical possessions? Like a designated hitter or something.

Did anyone notice how Bynum grabbed his elbow the whole time he was on the bench?
Even when the Lakers won he was high fiving everyone with his left hand and did not move his right arm at all. fuck! i hope it’s nothing.

Andrew Bynum suffered a sprained right elbow prior to his final trip to the line. He will be reevaluated tomorrow.
