    Rockets will play hard and with absolutely no pressure. They really have nothing to lose. Go Rox!

    Come on guys lets go. SMART BASKETBALL will give us an opportunity to win this game. Another critical aspect will be our 3 point shooting & their lack of 3 point shooting.

    Rockets 111-104

    man i wish deke didn't get injured. i know he would have dominated bynum/gasol defensively

    but this team will never give up. look for this to be an extremely competitive game, win or lose.

    Hopefully, we can tie it up. Anybody know what the starting lineup is now? Do we even have any other seven footers?

    Well,I can't wait to see how tough we are mentally and physically,with the loss of Yao for the postseason,I guess they all gonna get worked up this arvo and just kick their asses out of the Toyota Center!

    Puh-lease people who get access to the game at TC,make some noise and boo them every possession,this is OUR HOMECOURT!Kobe,who?

    I just can't believe the fans in Atlanta last night(I dunno whether or not those who chanted MVP when LeBron got to the line for freethrows),they just rooted for the opposing team.Don't be like that,we ain't finished yet.

    NEVER UNDERESTIMATE THE HEART OF CHAMPION!

    7 footer? Nada,we ain't got one cept Yao and Deke.

    I guess right now the tallest guy on the floor would be...Brian Cook?or Carl Landry?or Luis?

    I have no clue who's our starting C,never mind,maybe we could seek another option that outlast Lakers with small lineup playing run-n-gun?LOL,that'll be fun watching this if they get hot the whole arvo.

    We shouldn't have released news that Yao was out and put him on the bench so Phil might think we were trying to match up better with odom in the starting line-up

    The Lakers have been game planning for a YAO MING lead team so initial this will help us and I think we will win this game problem is they will adjust in games 5 and 6 then we will be in trouble but one game at a time and let destiny do its thing.

    Well,as I checked the roster of the Rockets,I still couldn't figure that out yet,but the interesting part of who could replace Yao's absence at C position is that Luis and Carl are both 6'9 and maybe we could go with the starting lineup like Aaron,Von,Ron,Shane,Luis?

    It's just hours away from the tipoff,hopefully at least grab a win at home. :mad: BEAT LA BEAT LA BEAT LA BEAT LA.

    Aaron Brooks 21 pts, 3 3 pters, 4 steals, 17 assists!

    i just hope Artest doesn't play one-on-one like last game and that he doesn't just jack up 3's, unless he's open

    i am hoping Artest doesn't try to do too much today

    if the team still plays inside out, there's still a chance...i think Scola and Landry are good enough to be able to score on Gaysol and Odom

    Artest is good when he's driving

    What we need to stop doing is giving lazy passes and stop forcing passes into such tight places If we can keep are turnovers down and get more assists than turnovers we can win because turnovers have been our downfall the whole series.
