    Jeremy Lin revenge game. Might have to go to this game. Best scenario is a Rockets win but I also want to see Jeremy sticking it the Rockets or hitting a game winner just to spite the haters.

    So you really think JLin with 0 weapons on a crap team versus the trapping, pressure defense we've seen all pre-season is going to succumb to Lin?

    Can't wait for regular season to start. Should be a fun match up.

    This is a personal game for Lin no doubt. The Lakers are weak but if Haren is guarding Jeremy Lin anything is possible.

    Vintage Kobe & Linsanity Redux vs. new-look Rockets at Staples Center. Will be a more competitive matchup than people think!

    Are the Lakers even playing defense? With Boozer, with Swaggy P, with the Man Hill, JLin

    Wes Johnson is trying

    It's going to be anti-climactic.

    The Rockets are going to phone it in.

    The Lakers are pretty bad at the moment. New coach, lots of new players, new system.

    Not much glory in beating such a team.

    I'd honestly like to see a historic drumming like we did the Jazz a few years ago. What's the biggest margin of victory a Rockets squad has had on the Lakers.

    vs
    ex-best SG (currently on the way to social service)
    turn-over prone ex-rocket bench player c*m water boy
    a bunch of scrub

    I'd be really curious to see how they calculate these things.

    But seriously, people thinking this game is a cakewalk should remember our first game against them last year. We shouldn't take anything for granted.
