I'm seriously going to if the Lakers lose to the Rockets...But, honestly...I don't see any team in that Conference beating the Cavs or Magic.

Gotta give pops to the Rockets when they could easily roll over & die after all these injuries to their "key players" .... now they have earned enough repsect throughout the league, well minus the Lakers perhaps ... LOL ...

Though not a gambing man myself, but I have to put money on the Lakers for the game seven ... would love to see the Rockets proves me wrong on Sunday high noon ...

Go Houston !

I can't fathom Lebron James having Gasol and Odom on his team and twice losing to a Rockets team missing Yao, TMac and Dikembe. That's flat out ridiculous to me. If the lakers win it all this year, it'll only be because of an abundance of talent. Where's the heart? Where's the leadership? Why is kobe shooting (and missing) jump-shot after jump-shot when the rockets are starting a 6-6 center???

Ryan Hollins was right...

If my Lakers get past the Rockets, the Nuggets are really going to cause some problems for them. I have been to tons of games in the Pepsi Center and those fans haven't forgot about Kobe tappin ol girls azz a few years back...it is gonna be ruthless out there.

RIP Wayman Tisdale...

Rockets > Lakers
Magic > Celtics

I could be wrong, but wither way it's should be fun to watch!

Come on you KNOW they are bound to lose AT LOS ANGELES. 51-31 halftime = FAIL.

And in the East, I wouldn't be surprised if the Magic beat the Celtics, in fact I hope they do...overrated Celtics and deserve to lose. But DESPITE who wins that game, the winner will get raped by the Cavs in maximum 6 games.

there's a difference between knowing they'll lose and not showing up at all.

LAL vs. HOU wasn't even a game.

I will give the Rockets credit though, they fought pretty damn hard.

it gave me a de ja vu feling once I saw 0-8, 12-22, and then the half-time deficit .... hard to play catch-up all the time .... esp. when you are on the road ....

Still lots of positive for this season ... really looking forward to next ...

Well, it was a good run by the Rockets. I wasn't really expecting a blowout though.:surrender They should have at least made the game more interesting. Lose by a max of 10, maybe. This game was pretty . I guess next year we'll do better if T-mac and Yao stay healthy. Nice job by the rest of the crew who stepped up and pushed the Lakers to 7 games

Nuggets-Lakers gonna be another series to watch.

Magic
