    if we could cut down TO's, and actually run a few effective offense, then we will have a good chance. Yao is playing great D. on offense, Yao has to move better.

    Nice change: refs have really been biased FOR the Rockets tonight. Yao could've been called for his 4th foul at least twice in the last 3 minutes; the tip-in by JJ was offensive goaltending; and Cato had a foot on the semicircle line when he took the charge (not to mention he slid over late, Malone had already left his feet before Cato's feet were planted). If we continue getting favorable calls we might steal this game.

    Little do the LA fans know, that "Kobe chanting" will hurt their chances to win.

    Heh heh... :)

    Did anyone see JVG's lips on the ESPN telecast just now?

    When Steve dropped the ball and called TO.
    "Why does he ??? the ball all the f'ing time???"

    Rockets are playing a good defence and have a chance to win the game.

    Bottom line is that the Lakers is not gonna go far in the PO.

    Spurs plays like a champion.

    my thoughts.. if MoT did that more ummm.. I think its called rebounding he would be a damn good player.

    SF3 needs to new shoes. hahaha I dont think I would want the shoes he endorses he slips on the floor all the time.

    hahaha

    what a low scoring ball game ... i am not sure if it is because of the defense or both teams are playing slappy ballgame.
