    Hope Artest can connect some shots in the 2nd half. 0-3 from 3 point land worries me.
    GO ROCKETS!

    Yep, that's what I said in my thread. I asked everybody if he could make the all-defensive team. A lot of people said he deserves to be on the 2nd team. Some say it needs a bit more work, some say the Media will never vote him in.

    I don't think Camby will make it, since his team is absolutely garbage. Stats don't account for everything, especially to stat padders like Camby, Durant, Granger, etc....

    Perkins and Yao are probably going to be the ones racing for it.

    Lowry driving pass everyone and score a layup...i thought that was Aaron. Wow, i didn't know he was that quick. Both PGs are quick but Lowry is more poised...a true PG.

    Promising, but the Rockets do know how to lose a lead. Hopefull, they'll keep with it. Even when the Black Mamba strikes.

    A little trivia the Lakers started Powell & Ariza. This is Powell's first start this season and Ariza's second.

    Morey is always right. :p

    I'm hoping for that. If we're lucky, Kobe will go into ball-hog mode, at which point we can just declare gg.

    Thanks for Yao and Scola's intact FG and we are shooting 56.1%.

    The Lakers second unit played poorly and let's attack the basket more when they dont have Odem.

    Be aware of Kobe and he didnot involve too much in the first half.

    We have to shoot 3s better in the second half.

    3 pt shooting is fickle. The good news is we already hit our quota of missed 3 pointers for this game, and we're actually up at the half. Just by the law of averages we should make more in the 2nd half.

    from this point on, every team in the west who isn't eliminated from the playoffs is relevant to us.

    if the rockets win, and utah wins, and the hornets win... there is no change. a rockets win only reaches is full value with a western contenders loss.

    Adelman found a combo that is giving the Lakers fits. I love the NEW Rockets, gritty, physical, aggressive. This team is the opposite of what they were in the first half of the season, a bunch of softies. The new team has a toughness about them.

    I would give them a big dose of Yao in the second half. If they play smart, they are going to win. But, if there is any team in the league that can create a collapse it is the Lakers. If they double or front Yao, then get that Rocket Roll fastbreak going again, and this one is over.

    Whatever happens, I am proud of the way our team is playing.

    if this team can continue to gel together as the rest of season goes, we are going to have a FUN post-season to watch.

    Oops, T-mac, Am i too exuberant?
