    Looks like Brooks will be eating Fish and chips for dinner opening night.

    You can't really call it a rematch if we weren't at full strength.

    actually would work the best against the lakers... you'd be amazed how many lakers/kobe fans there are in china... i would say next to the rockets, LAL is the china's favorite nba team

    Artest and the rest of Lakers will probably still be hung-over/out of it, from all the celebrating and self glorification.
    Rockets win.

    And somebody probably bleeds a bit.

    Also you can't say game 3 since Artest is now playing for the opposing team.

    He left because he didn't feel wanted in L.A.

    Ariza will have extra fire under him after the ring ceremony and will drop 40

    Ariza will almost shut down anyone they put in front of him.

    I assumed 'drop 40' meant 40 turnovers.

    I would expect them to do Grizzlies vs. Lakers. Not against the Rockets who need time before they can actually showcase their full firepowers. :(
