    1. Bynum isn't ready for the big stage. this is his forst real battle in the Playoffs- YAO FREAKING MING
    2. We can use Scola, Carl, and Chuck to counterbalance Odom
    3. The Rockets are playing even better defense- LA is guilty of defensive lapses in the First Round- Utah avg 97.4
    4. I'll give you that one
    5. Can't argue with you there
    6. We steal one game and HCA is ours
    7. LOL Derek Fisher is going to be exposed by the quickness of AB- everyone in LA is worried about this matchup
    8. the bench is banged up and not really clicking on all cylinders- Ariza and Walton are hobbled and no one outside of Odom showed anything in Round One- I don't see Shannon Brown playing a big role this series
    9. I don't buy your conspiracy theory nonsense
    10. they have one weakness, it is what ruined them in 2004 and 2008- HUBRIS

    in summation, they Kobe Bryant and Phil Jackson.

    we neutralize everyone else on their roster, hold the Big Three to around 20 points each and SHUT DOWN the perimeter, we CAN WIN THE SERIES

    I just want to point out what's our strength and weak points. What's the harm? I was watching Clutch City 94 and Double Clutch 95 these days. I found that the Rockets in 1993 faced a similar situation as we do now. They lost to Sonics, but that was some rewarding experience, and they won the champion the next year. I just hope we can see our differences from the Lakers and next year we will see Clutch City back.
    There are civilized fans here, and there are people like you.

    The 93 year wasn't the same for many reasons. That team wouldve smoked phoenix like they did those years and I think they wouldve beat the bulls too. That team had 1 of the top 3 players in the entire league. No matter who was on the court, it was debatebale that dream was the best player on the court all the time. This rockets team doesn't have that. Plus like someone said, we don't have anyone that can matchup with odom.
