We may not have a superstar, not even an all star but what we do have is the best depth in the league along with grit, determination, fighters and a never-say-die attitude.
Wow!! Best win of the season IMO. How everything seemed to be against us (refs, momentum, etc.) and we STILL pulled it out! What a great present for my birthday!!
Why is a good trade for Portland? Trading down from a 7-footer who is as good or better to a 6-foot PG? Plus, it just puts them in the same situation again. How about trading Lowry to Portland for their New Jersey Nets draft pick? That one could be a top fiver.
I cant even follow the ESPN thread right now. Its at like 10,000 posts just scrollling too quick it hurts my eyes. The game was good.
I love how Lakers fans was talking about how their PG d will improve when fisher is gone...yeah about that. LOL XD

I just read some of the posts over on a Lakers board that really made me laugh. They are blaming Mike Brown's rotations instead of Andrew Bynum's idiocy and they're calling Dragic's game a fluke. Wow. I used to think Laker's fans were informed for the most part.
Good big men are alot harder to come by than good PGs. I would trade alot for Aldridge i think he is very underrated.
It just means one more guy who needs the ball in his hands though. They just have too many guys like that, and not enough bench depth. They're also heading into lux tax hell if they don't trade Pau. And Bynum is a headcase. I think it would still benefit the Lakers greatly to make the Lowry + Scola for Pau Gasol trade. Lowry and Scola both bring value even without the ball in their hands.
ahahahaha, im still happy too. I thought LA's 36 FTs would save them. SO happy Rockets overcame this game!!! Camby was big! Dalembert played dumb sometimes, but played GREAT early! Dragic, Scola, and Parsons all played SO big! man, if it was 1030 I'd be ready to party. now im just exhausted. lol.
