    Man.. so it all comes down to this game. I think we can win this game.. obviously a lot of things have to go right for us on the offensive end.. but I really believe it's possible... Don't ever deny this team.. that's what I've learned from the last 2 wins.. you can't underestimate how much heart these guys have.. With that said.. BEAT LA! BEAT LA! BEAT LA! Go Rockets! :D

    My prediction

    Rockets 97
    Lakers 94

    ;)

    Where better to cap off this unbelievable series in Tinseltown, of all places?


    For that to happen of course..... stay aggressive. Take care of the ball. The usual stuff that's being stressed so frequently. Ron Artest needs to keep himself in check. Cannot afford to see him stray off trying to make wine from water.

    No Yao, No Deke, No McGrady. Impossible is nothing. Let's have a 1994 "Deke in Seattle" moment as the clock expires in game 7.

    Defense first and try to execute throughout the game.Don't get frustrated. If they can do that,they can win. Communicate on the court,and keep on playing basketball from start to finish. Don't worry about the outcome or what happened in Game 2 and in Game 5. A very tall order but it's not impossible.

    It all depends on Aaron Brooks if he comes out and sets the tone then we win point simple and plain
