    I wonder if Jabbar and James Worthy always show up for every Lakers home game? They both are there for this game.

    If they did, that's showing alot of loyalty to their team.

    Man, i gotta say that the Rockets have looked tough and played solid all road trip long (even in yesterday's loss).

    But tonight, Rockets are sucking it up again. Can anyone explain this Dang'ol performance all of a sudden?

    I'm fairly certain that Swift can neither define nor spell finesse.

    It sucks that our 2rd best player on the court is a rookie drafted at #24.

    Shut up. No one hate him. He's just the scapegoat since Francis was traded.

    Actually, Yao's still earning his rookie contract. He will be a bigger scapegoat next year when he makes the Max.

    It is becoming quiet apparent that JVG cannot coach offense. The offense comes thru Mcgrady's head and talent. If you take out Tmac, there are no brains running the offense. If you take out Yao, Tmac does not have the only tool helping him run it.

    We need a coach who can teach offense. This is offensive. Pun intended.

    No. saving Yao and TMAC, that is pretty much the shooting % of rockets, every night!

    we're really missing yao out there... not to mention alston, barry and DA. The Rockets just look tired. Although we're losing, I'm not really impressed by the lakers.

    That was 1 ugly half of basketball. the refs are freaking blind. tracy got hacked on 3 occasions yet no call. conversly once someone went near kobe, they called a phantom foul.

    the scoreline has absolutely nothing to do with van gundy.

    NBA players ought to be able to make open shots...and Rox have had plenty tonight

    I don't think T-mac is anywhere near 100%.

    A game like this with Ming out I anticipated he would try to take over the game based on the scrubs we have.

    I dont think the Lakers are attemtping to double on him (in part based on Kobe's pride).

    If he is still majorly hurt, this team is basically playing with no Superstar.

    Which means we are screwed.
