    I don't see it being difficult to get Yao the ball, but once they collapse, just like every other game, WE HAVE TO HIT FROM THE PERIMETER.

    A Tru Warrior is also human. I didn't say Ron and Scola are not tough. I wish no injury also blow them out of course.

    Im happy we dont have to worry about Lamar Odom. That PF position might be a weak spot for them in tomorrrows game!

    Yao, Landry, and Scola need to go to town on that interior D. Put Gasol in foul trouble and there aren't many other weapons left for them. Make Kobe be a one-man army going against Shane and Ron and that's basically your game right there.

    i feel that this game will be a repeat of Rockets Cavs game a couple weeks ago, ron ron and shane will slow down kobe and the rockets will dominate

    Hey guys just to compare last game with the Lakers to tomorows. This is very interesting.

    The Lakers got 33 points from Kobe Bryant and managed to eek out a win in the last seconds because of an amazing shot by Kobe Bryant.

    Last game between us two.

    Bynum-11 points

    Odom-10 points

    Radmonavich(ahh)-12 points

    They lose 33 points from what they got last game going into this one.

    Our Rockets team is much improved and our defense is significantly better.

    I havent read through this whole thread so I dont know if anyone pointed out my thought.

    There's a reason im optimistic about tomorow :D .

    It's going to take more than a team centered around one perimeter player to beat us. We've proven this as of late. Cavs, Nuggets, Lakers, etc.. will have trouble against us.

    I believe the teams we could potentially struggle with are:
    San Antonio, Utah, Celtics, Magic

    Rockets win this one by 8.

    San Antonio doesnt bother me, and with Alston at pg, neither does the Magic. I think we can beat Utah, but hopefully not in the first round. Lets raise the stakes. The Celtics to me are the team to beat.
