    Both teams are so much better after the trades. They can easily swallow Rockets alive. Rockets can't compete with them with the current squad. Give Kerr credit to bring Shaq to the team to grasp the final window of Nash in the league.

    I strongly disagree, Shaq is not going to play this way every game. This was his first game and against LA. He hustle his butt off, which will not happen in 7 game series. Phoenix vaunted fast break is history.

    OUR DEFENSE IS THE KEY AGAINST BOTH OF THESE TEAMS and we play D all night long

    If you feel sorry, then that means you give up hope...do yourself a favor and don't watch the Rockets anymore.. I think the Rockets play much better defense, and those teams will not score up into the 120s

    the suns got worse by getting rid of marion, he was the one guy that could always get behind yao and block him from the backside. now i hope we face them in the first round as opposed to the hornets

    The Suns have zero defense without Marion...I think that trade made them worse.

    Lakers are solid though...and if Bynum can come back in the same shape he was in, then they will really be a team that can take it all.

    You're pathetic to come conclusion for just one game. Don't forget this sun team doesn't have even half defense compared with Rox. Sure we could beat this laker game if TMac is doing good.

    Both teams were horrible in defense tonight. I think the rockets can keep them under 100pts and beat them.

    Phoenix's defense is horrible. How do you allow a team to score 30+ points per quarter?

    I don't think so. They just played a good game to each other today. Although I feel Lakers becomes more difficult for Rockets than before, Rockets actually match better with current Suns. But they will "easily swallow Rockets alive", no way!

    Dude lets play them first before drawing these conclusions. Neither of these teams have played the current Rockets with our balanced offense and hot young players who see regular minutes now.

    Wait and see.

    Lakers are looking very impressive with addition of Pau. Their team is really built well for a playoff run with Fisher at the point, outstanding frontcourt with Odom, Pau, and Bynum when he gets back. Their bench seems much improved. Not too many weaknesses.

    Rox stands no chance before the lakers. Kobe + Gasol + Bynum + Odom + Fisher

    They are just too good. :(
