    Rockets poor 3-point defense is hurting them. And they have to be more solid on the boards. With the Lakers missing Howard/Gasol/Hill, we should be dominating in the rebounds category.

    Don't worry, folks! just try to make the Lakers run their court fast and they will be out of gas when second quarter comes.

    I just hope Harden is held to the same standards as the rest of the team, there was no reason for keeping him in the game early on!!

    We are lucky Delfino's shots went in. Really happy only down 6. Could easily be down 15.

    We just need to force some TOs we'll be fine, I don't see the lakers keeping up the hot shoot the whole game. We'll make our usually run in the 2nd - 3rd

    Somebody send a memo to Lin. He's playing against a 40yr PG, he needs to dominate him.

    It wasn't terrible. Lakers were playing hard, and the rookies didn't know how to handle it.

    The Lakers are going to need oxygen after that quarter. Rockets keep the pace up and we'll be okay.

    And Tony needs to tell Lin how to come into a game ready to play!
