Bring it on!!!!!! The new season is here. Can't say I haven't been waiting for this for what seems like eternity. Go Rockets!!!!!!!!
Gotta shut down Gasol and Kobe, make Odom and Artest kill us. Our bench has to outplay theirs.
We can win this.

The only way the Rocket steal this one from the Lakers is if Brooks dominate the game right from the start. Steve Blake and Fish are the two guys that Aaron Brooks have just crushed throughout his career. Basically i see the PG battle as the only favorable matchup for the Rockets.
If Aaron Brooks doesn't have a big game(25+ points/7+ assist), i fully expect the Lakers to win the opener.

If pumpfake isn't such a **** defender we wouldn't have to worry about the defensive mismatch in this game. If he defend Kobe he's going to get destroyed. If he defend Artest.... Artest has about 50 pounds on him. This is one of those game where i wouldn't be opposed to him sitting out the 4th quarter.

Is Artest going into his "Oh hey I'm going to try score by himself" mode a bad thing for us?

Normally, no.
With Kevin Martin on him, quite possibly.
Nonetheless ... GO ROCKETS!

Much much better. Now instead of getting blown out, we'll only lose by 1 point to a Kobe Bryant buzzer beating 3.

And if I post a picture of
YOUR MOM, will we destroy the Lakers after season-ending injuries to Pau and Kobe?
My apologies, I'm sure your mother is a very nice lady; I just enjoy making your mom jokes.
