Time to make some history by sweeping the Lakers in the regular season for the first time ever This win will also be a great intimidating factor in case we run into Lakers in the first round of the playoffs Rockets 102 Lakers 93
A loss. The Lakers have been playing great lately and I doubt that they'll lose their third straight to us.
rox 105 fakers 92 yao 31 pts, 13 rebs, 4 blks. foxsports headline will read shaq's daddy's daddy. payton plays only two minutes in the game. ejected after biting the zen master's ear off. mobley once again out-plays kobe.
im worried about that too.. when people get mad or frustrated they do things they normally wouldnt do. I dont think Shaq is bad person but I think he is getting frustrated with the way people are talking about him getting owned by Yao and may take it Yao pretty hard. (being pretty physical maybe down right dirty) J
Let's all hope Yao is still alive after this game. Even if alive though, he may consider retirement. Shaq goes for 55 and 25.
Lakers don't play no D, Kobe will probably give Cat fits though but Steve would have his way with Payton while shooting under 30%.
If the Rockets play with intensity and suffocating defense then the Rockets get the W but if the team that played Seattle shows up then they lose
you have to consider that the lakers are playing in Atlanta on tuesday night and have to travel from atlanta to houston to play a back to back...hopefully the hawks can keep the game close so shaq and kobe dont get to rest much. and we will be very well rested since our last game was sunday. i think a key to the game would be to try and get shaq in foul trouble
Once again it will not be the matchup between Shaq and Yao that is going to be the deciding factor. The two neutralise each other (with Yao getting help from Cato and others) and it is the other matchups that are going to be crucial: Mobley vs Kobe, for example. Rockets will win and send everyone on the BBS into a frenzy... SS999
Shaq's a great player, no death was ever recorded after somebody played him. That's not to say Yao won't be the first.
Jesus f$#king Christ. U guys have no heart. Yao has proven that he can take it to Shaq's fat ass and u people are saying that some how Yao is gonna get destroyed. My guess is Shaq will get frustrated again and get himself fouled out cause he's a punk. Some of u give him far too much credit. I have this "Yao is gonna get broken in half by Shaq" talk before, in fact five times before.
I give Shaq a lot of credit for not being a dirty player, he defends Yao with basketball skills instead of full nelsons like the other fake centers.

I've had a Lakers Audio Link before, but since the last one didn't work maybe this is the one. If you try it, can you please post to let me know if it does. - Thanks KVTA am 1520 *****Because of NBA restrictions you may need to log on at least 30 minutes before the game.***** Hope it helps.

I had said this before the Christmas game and Ignored the game on purpose.I certainly learned my lesson! where there is a will there is a hope!
