Game 6, NBA Playoffs: Houston Rockets vs Los Angeles Lakers -- Kobe Bryant Elbows Ron Artest [Remix]

(5.17.09) -- A remix of the elbow Kobe Bryant gave Ron Artest during Houston's 95-80 defeat of the LA Lakers this past Thursday.

The blow resulted in Kobe being given a technical foul. Since the end of the game, the league has decided to take away the technical charged to Kobe.

Game 7 of the series is today at 3pm Eastern Time (in the USA; 19:30 GMT). Who do you think will win (the Lakers are 12.5 point betting favorites according to at least one Las Vegas sportsbook)? Who do you want to win?

Do you think Kobe got away with elbowing Ron Artest in the mouth in Game 6? Should Kobe have had to keep the technical foul? Should he have been suspended? Or was this just, to quote Spike Lee, Kobe Doin' Work with his 'bows?

Will Kobe advance to the Western Conference Finals? Are he and the Lakers heading for another Championship? Will Kobe add another ring to the three rings he already has?

Or is Houston on a path to destiny and their own Larry O'Brien trophy?

One way or the other, the entire world will be watching, from Canada to Europe, Australia and China.

Two Game 7's tomorrow: Houston vs LA and the Orlando Magic vs Boston. This is why we love sports.

VIDEO NOTES & CREDITS:
------------------------------- -----

1. Music -- The song is "Scorpion (Lost Soul Bent on Revenge)" by The Immortals. I have very slightly altered the original song for this video, creating the "Forever Lost Remix." The original song is from "Mortal Kombat: The Album" (1994). To learn more about The Immortals, and/or to buy the album, visit these links:

2. The "Kobe Sucks!" Chant -- It's from a Lakers vs Phoenix Suns game, but I don't recall which one.

3. The "Kobe Bryant...got punked" audio from Ron Artest is a splicing of two different Ron Artest interviews. He didn't say that exact phrase but I combined his words.

4. The "Kobe Bryant...got owned" audio is a combination of Ron Artest saying 'Kobe Bryant' from the above clips and myself saying 'got owned.'
