If Mobley is healthy, then I vote "yes". This Rockets team found their offense in the second half of the game against the SA Wusses, and that will continue against LA. The Lakers are undefeated, and are due for a let-down. The Rockets always play the Lakers tough, and that trend will continue.
LOL! If The Spurs are the wusses you gotta ask yourself, where does that leave the Rockets? It's every teams goal to beat the Lakers this year! You need to find a way to contain the Nuggets' offense before you call out beating the Lakers
I agree, having Mobes back will be a big boost. I just have a feeling that Rice is going to have a HUGE night against that egomaniac Phil Jackson. The Lakers PF position is terrible, so I would Kenny Thomas should slaughter them. They don't have anybody there that is as good as KT. Obviously Francis should have a good time, and if Rice is feeling it nobody there cna stop him. Mobley could go a long way towards neutralizing Kobe. I pick the Rockets in an upset.
Instead of running over to our board and gloating because your friends gave you the link, maybe you should wonder why your team barely beat a Rockets team, at home, playing without their #2 scorer. Maybe you should learn to contain that team better before taking shots at them. And for the record, a team that rolls over and quits in a big playoff series are wusses. Deal with it. You barely beat a young rebuilding team on your homecourt without their #2 scorer and you needed a rookie to hit the shots for you, whoop-de doo!
And your point is? Dude I'm not going gloat about anything. The Spurs have 3 new starters on their team as well. I wouldn't call that rebuilding but I would assume it takes awhile to learn to play with one another wouldn't you? It's still early in the season for both teams. And having a rookie that can hit the big shots is an asset in my book
