I didn't see what ESPN had to say or anything, but LA definitely played their worst game in a while last night. They played horribly and still had a reasonable chance to win it. The Rockets HAD to win last night because if the Lakers were going to play that bad and win, it would have shattered Houston's confidence. That being said, I still like the Lakers in 6.

That's partially my point though. Rockets shot poorly from 3 just like LA did, they got no production out of Luis Scola or Von Wafer. They played far from their best but that doesn't matter because LA played bad. Both teams played a physical game and both played good D but the Rockets was better. Rockets controlled that game from the opening tip.

Agreed. And TT22, I got nothing personal against the Rockets. I'm not a big Artest fan, haven't ever been, but besides them playing my favorite team I don't actively seek to diss the Rockets. Ask Ghazi, him and the Mav's or much less tolerable than the Rocket fans. I've been to at least 15 games of theirs this season and haven't once openly cheered against the Rockets while doing so....

I'm a basketball fan and enjoy the shite talking man, that's it. It could be the Spurs, the Mavs, the f'ing Grizzlies against the Lakers I'd still join in.

i think last night's Rockets win opens this series up drastically. the Rockets now have home court on LA. Before last night if I had to take a pick and live by it I would have said Lakers in 6 but now with what winning a game in LA this series is a toss up. LA is a very good road team so it won't suprise me if the win in Houston but they are going to have to earn it. I could see LA still winning in 6 but 7 is more likely however I can also see Houston winning in 6 or 7. This is going to be a good series
