    I have a feeling we will win

    Asik = Howard (not 100%)

    Patterson < Gasol

    Chandler > MWP

    Harden = Bryant

    Lin > Morris

    Rocket Bench > Lakers

    Lakers 112

    Rockets do have a chance to win, but it will be by a slim margin. Plus I think both teams don't play much defense outside of their respective centers, so should be high scoring..

    PPat with the buzzer beating 3!!!!!! :D

    their frontcourt is superior to us . i'm expecting our guards doing alot of help defense which will lead to open three for them. hope they miss a lot of them.

    Lakers are playing up tempo dantoni... gasol weakness

    but rockets strength.

    Run and attack all night....pick and roll make bryant chase harden thru screens...

    we should win if we hit our 3's

    Oh God.... Joey Crawford is refereeing tonight. I don't know if I have the stomach to watch the game knowing he could kill the game at any moment with his tantrum throwing antics.

    PREDICTION: Kobe and Delfino are both injured during pre-game when Kobe's name is announced and Delfino rushes to run out of the tunnel, bumping their heads together like coconuts.

    I agree. We are young players, run, run, run, make them tired to die.

    We have to control our turn-overs.

    If the Rockets are not leading by the half, they lose this game easily....

    If Delfino goes 3/9 from the arc, we lose this game easily...

    If Lin picks up ticky tacky fouls within the 1st quarter, we lose this game easily...

    Joey Crawford is an automatic lost for the Rockets...

    See, the problem is, the Lakers know Harden doesn't want to play defense, so no matter whom Harden guards, the Lakers are going to attack him. It is going to be MWP post-ups all day again if Harden is guarding MWP. Physical struggle on the defensive end is going to kill Harden on the offensive end, so Lin and Parsons will have to step up there for the Rockets to blow the Lakers out. Need a lot of ball movement to tire the Lakers out. Tired Lakers suck at both ends of the court.
