    This will be tied game until the 4th against a Bryantless Lakers, then Bryant makes a dramatic entry after his court hearing, drops down directly from the Staple roof, but the rope breaks 30ft from the floor, the MJ-wannbe breaks his leg, the Rockets goes on to beat the Fakers by 12pt.

    Backs to the wall, Rockets will play with an intensity that Fakers can't match

    Rockets win 102-87

    Every Rocket plays well and does his job!

    good one

    might I add that Karla will be right underneath Bryant when the accident occurs and breaks his wrist trying to break Bryant's fall

    Go Rockets!!

    The 4th game was the first i've seen here in Slovenia this year. It was nice to see our man Boki play some great minuets.

    Win the Lakes, we belive in you!!!

    This is not only a game for Rox after Karla's bad behavior.
    Beat the cocky faker, we need to beat their crap out.
    Let's release our enthusiasm.

    Ok...time to be honest.
    I think it's going to be tough i'm 50/50 even though I hate the Lakers.

    Honestly, I don't care who wins, as long as someone beat the **** out of Kobe or Malone. Bunch of arrogant piece of shiet .I will be happy =)

    I think it is safe to say that tonight is "The Night" that will culminate the entire season for our team as well as for all of us. All year we have critisized, we have prayed and we have cheered for our team to make the playoffs..to break the lottery streak..to become a contender in the Western Conference. We may not have accomplished both of those feats but we are closer than we have ever been....Even if we lose tonight we can lose knowing that our team played their hearts out, that our team pushed the great Laker team to the wall every game and instead of just losing to them...we made them beat us. Sure we made mistakes that we'd love to have back and sure we could easily be up 3-1....but we're not. Tonight there are no excuses...there are no nerves or jitters...no fear. Our team has absolutely nothing to lose and they know it. For the first time in a long time...ever as far as I can remember..our Rox team has respect around the league more importantly from the press. I am proud to be a Rocket fan...a fan of THIS Rocket team. And tonight will show me...will show us that it has all been worth it

    No Excuses

    GO ROCKETS

    With Bryant out of practice the last 2 days, Lakers are going to pound it inside at the beginning of the game. They are going to come out and play very aggressively and try to finish the game in the first quarter. Rockets need to prepare the fiece attack in the first quarter and make sure we match their intensity. Keep the composure when there maybe some very tough calls against them in the first quarter.

    After Rockets outside shooter's 4/22 performance in game 4, I expect Lakers clog the lane and our outside shooter beat them, hopefully JJ and Cat can hit a couple at the beginning of the game to open the driving lane.

    Yao Ming have not played a great game for a while, he is due for a big game, isn't he?

    87-82 Rcokets win.

    No way we lose this game. No way. Yao will have 10 dunks right down Malone's throat.

    Keys for this Rockets victory are same as b4.

    (1)Gotta have good games from each of big 3, SF, Cat, Yao, must play to their averages or better.
    (2)Gotta d it up - especially perimeter and especially Malone - no open J's.
    (3)Gotta hit 3's.

    Yao should be more persistant in going at Shaq and Malone on the offensive side and MAKE FOULS COUNT on other end.

    Cat needs to drive to basket FIRST then use the space drives create to increase his chance of hitting jumpers.

    Steve has to look at to roll better on pick and roll - to keep 'em honest and create space for himself.

    Team needs to focus on GAME not series and on winning not paybacks.

    Watch out for Shaq - he's been quiet - law of averages says he goes off - and if Rox throw PF or SF at Malone - that opens up paint for Shaq!

    Good Luck Rockets and fanatics!

    Lackers SUCK! ;)
