    james and padgett are the difference...role players are gonna determine where we go from here because when they hit shots yao and tmac get clearer paths to operate and defenses cant bog down on them

    That's why the key to our winning is always them hitting wide open jump shots, and not making turnovers.

    That's actually the key to all teams winning... so n/m. ;)

    Everytime they make a little run, the Rockets come back and push it back to 13-15 point lead again. I think the Lakers got it down from double digit lead to get back within 6 two or three times already this game.

    Lue for james was a master stroke of the decade. james is such an explosive player, it's not funny. i hope the rox keep this guy around for a long time.

    good job yao keep making jerry buss think you are a wimp who gets tired quickly and lets brian grant push you around. great strategy to stay with the rockets and turn off other teams like a girl eating her own buggers :D :D (just kidding he will not go anywhere)

    Lue was for Barry... it was Gaines for James (an even bigger steal... at least Lue plays).

    I get tired of people like you and Himalays with your insane attraction to make comments about only one guy on the team. I dont understand it.

    Yao with a great hustle on that play.

    We need to close this out, the score is still too close for comfort. The Lakers are very hot shooting from outside.

    The best comment by the TNT crew tonight was just made by Kevin Harlan, right after Kobe took a stupid ass 30+ footer for no apparent reason:rolleyes: : "Kobe continues his errant ways!":D

    Yao has completly owned the paint tonight. his so dominant it's not funny. the lakers along with 27 other teams( except miami) have no answer for him.

    You can't hate him more than I do.

    I think the "Who is a better player" debate should officially end tonight: T-Mac is a better all-around player than Kobe is.

    And also after tonight, this debate should end forever: Yao Ming is better than all the Lakers' front lint players combined into one. And Deke is better than Divac:D

    BTW, post-game, another one of those gay Coach Thompson interviews is coming:rolleyes: "What is it Kevin?! What is paining you? Talk to me honey!"
