    I agree. It wasn't going to be easy either way...

    One of the best Rockets games I've seen so far this year

    i like the way the team is playing without t-mac but the lakers are so big it's a mismatch with whoever shane isn't guarding.

    bonzi atleast has the height and bulk to stick on walton and keep shane on kobe, but he may still be too fat to be effective.

    LOL!

    JVG's head will explode trying to learn and teach his players the Triangle.

    Too complicated for him.

    He prefers predictability. Fits his pace.

    Doesn't the triangle require big players?

    i'd rather be behind 3 than up 3 at half.

    our team would get all lazy and think we got this one in the bag and go out and play stupid. maybe jvg will encourage them to go out and play harder? lol yeah right.

    Rafer is a selfish SOB he has the worst shot selection for a supposed Pass first shooting guard.

    As UNready as Vspan is, he has contributed 100X more than Rafer already.

    *gulp*

    defense is not good in this game. Allowed too many penetrations.

    The difference is probably that Tmac is setting others up as well as K24, but he didn't score as well as KB? I am not sure, I never ripped Tmac though ;)

    Dead on, and this is not the first time this has happened. Battier is not exactly shooting lights out either. Said it before and will say it again, Alston is the weak link on this team.

    Overall, great effort by Rockets, Yao is an awesome player. This is a winnable game. With a healthy TMac it would be a sure win given the way the team is playing.

    That's great. JVG needs to play Novak. Play the rookie! :)

    Without T-mac, the Lakers create a nightmare for us defensively.

    Mismatches everywhere... mostly caused by Walton being bulked up enough, and us having to play Shane on Kobe.

    Bonzi... well, he might be able to guard Phil Jackson, but that's still a big IF.
