    Can't wait to see Nick Young in HD. I want to see if he has gill slits, because a lot of his moves look like a big fish's, flopping around the deck.

    I hope Kobe comes wearing all black again, only appropriate for the death of the Kobe-era Lakers...

    I hope the Rockets play well and show no mercy. Hang a 50 point loss on the Fake Show.

    The lakers really aren't that good, make sure Gasol doesn't beat you, lots of garbage and mediocre players after him.

    Rockets really should control this game at home.

    I just hope Howard doesn't try to do too much, and start pressing. Just let the game come naturally, and trust your teammates by moving the ball around.

    Dwight had 39 points, 16 rebounds when he played the Magic last season, it was in Orlando of course, but why not this game???

    It'd be nice to see D12's coming out party against the lick show. Lin might be extra motivated against D'Antoni's team, reminded of the way he used to play. Dream's Deadly Combo!!!

    A serious spanking is going to happen. The Rockets will probably go with Casspi early. LAL does not have the team speed or athleticism to keep up with the Rockets. And Pau, as great as he still is, cannot contain Howard. The Rockets have the advantage at all 5 positions and the better bench. And a better coach.

    I'd imagine Dwight will really go at Gasol. It'd be very interesting to watch!

    I imagine the Lakers will start Jordan Hill, Howard's key there will be boxing out, Hill is awfully good at slipping under cracks for offensive boards, but that's about all he does well.
