    When did our team turn into Chandler & Friends? I don't recognize anyone else wearing a Rockets uni. Maybe it's because of all those games I've missed. Thanks again, Les.

    p.s. Thanks for sharing the great shots. Glad you enjoyed the game.

    I'd just buy the body. The kit lens with the D7000 was garbage (unless they've started packaging it with something different). Get the body, go buy lenses independently.

    35mm 1.8, 50mm 1.8, 18-200VRII. That's a good budget set.

    Awesome pics. The closest I've been to courtside is 8 rows behind at the Staples Center.

    But man, those are A TON of empty seats for a rivalry game.

    Great pics, great seats, great game (except for the loss in OT) and you have a great wife - you are one lucky dude. Thanks for sharing - it felt like I was courtside at the game.

    Hi "Illegal Machine" - great pictures. Very envious but enjoyed them. Thanks.

    Would it be possible for me to "borrow" & tweet one of the pictures (the one with Lin applying tons of pressure on one foot)? That was just an amazing shot. If yes, let me know how you'd like me to credit the source of the photo in my tweet. Thanks.

    Thanks for the pics.

    So they won't allow a 55-200mm telephoto in there? The Texans don't seem to mind.

    Naw. They hassled me about a wide angle (11-16mm) until I proved that it wasn't a zoom. I had my 70-210 in a cargo pocket that they missed.

    I had a friend take a 55-200 and they told him to leave his gear in one of their offices until the game was over.
