    it seems the refs have decided not to call slapping-on-wrist fouls, at least not when Shaq deos it. He clearly slaped on Yao's left wrist on at least two shots.

    SF and Cat, turn up your D a notch!

    This is why Kobe is the best guard in the NBA. He can be the best point guard if he puts his mind to it.

    Lakers is using Kobe as a point 2 guard. Since Kobe can penetrate the lane at will, it is usually a basket when the ball is in Kobe's hands.

    Either a basket for Shaq, or a 3 for GP.

    In the last several minutes, Rockets was playing great. Recognizing the mismatch at 4, Yao rebounded and that hook over Daddy was beatiful.

    Yao has 4 rebs while Shaq has only 1. :D

    Go Rockets! Go Yao! Go Francis!

    looks like the decisive factor of this game will be free throw shooting...

    The biggest secret to make Houston a world class team. Make a pair of glasses for Yao so that each opposing center looks like Shaq daddy.:)

    After that first quarter, I thought the Lake Show was going to get the old steamroller going. But now, even with Yao in foul trouble, they are in good shape.

    If you'll notice Mark Jackson racks up assists by feeding Yao outside. He sets him up for it by sucking the big man. Hopefully the other players see this. Yao can hit from outside.

    What a great game by Rox! Why can't we play the Mavs, Spurs, Sonics, Grizzlies at the same level?

    Lakers has only 5 pts in this quarter!:D
