    I wonder what the Lakers must be thinking. No Yao no T-Mac Artest goes 4/19 with 8 points and we STILL get our butts kicked....

    Houston Rockets, where the amazing happens.

    Mad props to AB, Battier, Hayes, Lowry, Scola, Artest, hell even Brian Cook scored! Von and Carl can only get better!

    Now I don't feel like going to work, I will spend all day reading the reaction of the LA fans! HAHAHAHAHA.

    Very good point. I tend to forget about things like this when we used a lot of energy early.

    Adelman is a genius and the second unit has run the Adelman offense better than the starters.

    Great win, Rockets showed their hearts.

    Anybody noticed AB0 and Battier got 57 points combined, this is not gonna to happen every night. But a win is a win.

    it was mostly high pick-and-roll game. that's the offensive game plan.

    don't overstate things.

    This game has proven that AB is not the right one to play with Yao, he is meant to score, not to pass the ball to Yao. we need another guard to feed Yao the ball to dominate the inside, and put AB on the court when Yao is off the bench.
    just a thought.
    sorry for the poor english.

    Completely disagree. The Nugz have turned up the defense and have almost as much depth as the Rockets. Well without Yao and Tmac they obviously have more. A strong frontcourt with Martin/Nene/Anderson as well as Carmelo and Billups filling it up, they look great right now.

    Not to mention the Cavs are awaiting whoever survives the minefield of the west playoffs.

    The Lakers will not win the Championship. No way no how.

    i'm one of them. and i haven't changed my stand. ab can score. when he only has to score he's great. making plays for others? not so good.

    best way to use him when we're at full strength? off the bench with the 2nd unit.
