    I think they meant the first quarter. He only scored 14 pts.

    Im predicting 35, but will still get outscored by Kobe. Overall both teams looking good. Good 1st quarter for the Rockets, i was actually expecting the Lakers to go on a run midway, but we held up. Zero turnovers is quite impressive.

    Doesn't it tick anybody off when T-Mac makes his TV appearance in the first then leaves? He did also in Dallas for the TNT...
    Only nationally televised games? Come on T!?
    I dunno... Kinda makes me mad... Mac needs to stop going to commercial and relying more on what got him everything... His game!

    I'm happy to see Juwon Howard stand up and applaud Stromile when Stromile is his competition at the 4 spot... Makes me happy to know we have a great character guy... He is worth every penny IMO.

    Watching this game makes me glad for next year too... A healthy team is gonna cause destruction is the Western Conference...

    Just rants about the game guys... What are your takes?

    Its hillarious that the Lakers will NEVER be a championship team with Kobe as the MAIN man as he is now... his game doesn't allow anybody else to even come close to developing the confidence to be another all-star.

    Its not the offense today... its the defense. If we played anywhere close to the defense we normally play this season, this wouldn't be a close game.
