This team will do us proud no matter what tomorrow. By the way can Dorsey be activated for the playoffs? Can use any big that can give us some minutes. He just needs to rebound and defend.
The series is JUST getting started. Flight will show his amazing defense on Kobe, and he Jordan-esque offensive skills. And make Kobe call him Daddy, and will make him say "Nobody can guard Flight" in the post game show.
Like Adelman said, you will never have to question the effort and heart of this team. That's really as much as you can ask for as a fan. We don't realize how lucky we've all been so far. Go Rockets, make the city proud.
My guess is Cook would get some minutes. Dorsey foot was still bothering him in the Portland series according to Morey after Deke went down.
Go down swingin but who said we were goin down? Yes the league may be rigged but i think some of us are forgetting something...NEVER underestimate the heart of a champion. -Points to Championship Banners in TC-
I think the Lakers are in for a surprise next game. They may think the Rox are beaten but this team has heart and plays very well even when some of our main guys are down. I for one would love to see Brian Cook get some minutes and see what he can do against his old team. hehe
I still believe! We will go down fighting.The different between losers and winner is that losers find it easy to lose and become quite accustomed to it. Winners can't sleep well at night after a loss and reach down deep within until there is nothing left to give. I believe these Rockets are Winners, Yao is a Winner and the Lakers still need two more victories. Never under estimate the heart of a champion. Time to kick L.A. right in the balls!
Phil Jackson: "This is a team that's really survived a lot of adversity, and that's what you have to admire about them," Jackson said. "They've had difficult challenges all year and they've always come back. They've had tough losses during the course of the season, where they might get blown out, and then they've always been able to come back and perform in a responsive manner after they had a disappointing night on the floor. We've got to be totally ready for another good fight."
Let end on good note. Go all out on all cylinders.Front line keep getting thinner, so what? Keep on shooting.
