    Different announcers would be noting how difficult it is for the Lakers to handle the Rockets. They made the first reactive move in not bringing in Dwight for McGree.

    Over/under 100 points in the paint for LA?

    Don't worry - they've got Dwight and Javale waiting to check in.

    Defensively, Rockets cant afford to make a mistake on the initial move.

    Once the first line of defense breaks down on the perimeter, there is no resistance at the basket.

    We are getting wide open looks in the lane too. The Lakers bigs have to guard the 3 point line.

    It’s a strange philosophy. Going to take some time to get used to it.

    Can you imagine this offense with Hargod and Russ attacking the basket?

    I said the Lakers would double team Harden all game and that's what is happening. I guarantee you we don't double team Lebron.

    The one thing about the Lakers is they have Bradley to bother him a little. I was hoping they would trade him kuz and green for Morris. It would have helped us.

    Over, unless they’re dumb and shoot 3’s. They should drive or lob to Davis every play.

    I’d like to see PNR with WB until he’s switched on a big and then just drive and dish.

    No mid range pull ups we traded Capela so you could get to the rim
