    Our game plan against the Lakers is to run n gun. Chandler has been an instrumental part of our run n gun, not Delfino, so I am worried a bit.

    We will run n gun regardless because this is the pace Lakers play at as well.

    If Dwight is out tomorrow, I'm expecting to see a lineup along the lines of Lin, Douglas, Harden, Delfino and Patterson more often.

    That there's a small line-up. Considering the Lakers size, I don't know how we'll keep them from getting a ton of offensive rebounds. Well, I guess we can just run and outlet for a Harden drive or a Lin coast to coast until they start getting back on defense.

    This game won't be played until tomorrow, and there's already 11 PAGES of pre-game discussion! Rockets have the greatest fans in the NBA!

    This I think will be a tough game. They are going to come out with everything.

    I think the Lineup we would see often is Lin,Harden,Delfino,Parsons and Asik/SMith

    I think what got us in trouble the last times was the help defense on Howard which then left the 3 point shooters wide open. No help defense this time. Just let Howard get his.

    I'm so glad we didn't get Gasol a year ago, even the media recognising his rapid decline. We're on the rise and LA going down, so happy to see it. Now let's stop on em and show them who's boss!

    Oh man, with all this turmoil the Lakers are going through it would be soooo sweet to bury them even further in a hole. HAHAHAHH *evil laugh*
