I could not agree more.

I think too many people have been drinking the Laker/Doug Collins Kool-Aid.
The Lakers have played well, but this game is much more about the Rockets playing their worst game of the season.

The Rockets can shoot better than 32% against any D. They don't have to make poor decisions on passes and over dribbline.
Game 4 was them playing disciplined. Game 5 was them losing focus on what got them the W in game 4.

If Houston plays their game, they can beat LA. LA is overrated and the Rockets are underrated.

Game 6 will be a different story.

What are you talking about? The rockets played lose last game.

On top of that Jackson adjusted, he brought the Lakers length out.

Agreed totally with the first part. The Lakers are so so cocky they thought they could half-ass it and coast to a victory. Hopefully, they'll come out in Game 6 like that instead of going for the kill.

This Lakers team isn't very tough mentally. If we can start off shooting hot like Game 4 anything is possible. Of course, we'll have to play another near perfect game in order to win another game this series but make no mistake about it: this Lakers team isn't all there mentally. They easily could allow this.
