Very frustrating to watch
I'm with you. The Lakers came out flat and heartless and played most of the game that way. I almost wish they would have gotten blown out instead of it being just close enough to maybe win. The Lakers play terribly and the Rockets play a great game and they barely win. I change my prediction to Lakers in 6 in this series.

That Laker game was terrible... God willing they put forth some effort and enthusiasm, it would be murder.. Kobe looks like he takes things too easily, a joke then turns it up, I hate how they have become the "comeback" team.. They should be on point ALL GAME, not just the second half, let alone 4th quarter to play catch up!

Yup... like I said in this thread before. This team, if they wanna win a championship, will have to start tightening the screws. I hate the say this, but they looked like a much better team last season at this time.

Let's see if they come out with some intensity next game, cause if not, this could be a very, very long series.

the magic decided that, after taking the previous quarter off, they would try to play some basketball again, thus the necessary rebounds.

as frustrated as the lakers fans might be, i am just as frustrated with the magic. once they build a lead, it's 3-pointers. just don't understand that mentality - you're not gonna hit them all - take it to the rim!

Yup, the Magic really fall in love with that 3 point line. Instead of running the offense through the post continuously. I still think they'll take the celtics out rather easily.

i don't know about 'easily' but i do think they are their own worst enemy. i predict i will get my first gray hair watching this series.
