HOLY ****. Roy with a 36 foot buzzer beater!

Good for us .. the more they (HOU) lose the better pick we'll have 
I did not see this game but my facebook is loaded with comments from people that were either there or watched it saying it was the best game ever. Have to look for the local replay to see what I missed.

I saw the game on TNT. Charles Barkley at the half was falling asleep on the set saying it was too boring for him. It was basically up until about half way into 4th quarter - like sooo many typical NBA games. Then it started to become very interesting. The loud Blazers fans really began getting into it as the game went back and forth. No question final few seconds were very exciting and made it game of the year up until this point in the season. Roy, who was contained by Artest throughout the contest hit a dramatic big shot, then Yao with almost certain stunning game winner plus one - then Roy again launched his miraculous DEEP ball at the buzzer. Yep, the final few seconds are worth seeing on replay or maybe the last couple of minutes. Devastating loss for now 3-2 Rockets at start of long 5 game road trip.

How do you figure? It was TMacs screw up that allowed Roy to shoot the 3. Artest was guarding the right man.

Cruch time Artest was dominated. He looked real slow to me. The last play not included even.
The TNT people were saying that on the last play it was weird to have Yao guarding the inbounds pass cos he's not quick enough to go for the steal. The result - Roy caught it without any pressure and has space to shoot. If they had a guard or SF guarding the pass he could quickly come over to double team or at least make it harder to pass the ball in

I was actually hoping (in some weird sort of way) that someone would step up to try and defend Artest. The dude had what? 14 points on something like 3 of 15 shooting. Hey, it's all good. He's Houston's problem now.
Yes.
I sure do feel bad for that team.
Championship-level talent is something I don't want around here anytime soon.
