Well Ladies and Gentlemen, as the saying goes..... "It's on like Donkey Kong."

VS.

Starting lineup for Houston. (Probable, I assume Dalembert isn't going to start THIS game at least!)

Centre - Jordan Hill??????
Image

Power Forward - Luis Scola.
Image

Small Forward - Chase Budinger.
Image

Shooting Guard - Kevin Martin.
Image

Point Guard - Kyle Lowry.
Image

Starting lineup, Orlando Magic.

Centre - Dwight "Superman" Howard.
Image

Power Forward - Hedo Turkoglu.
Image

Small Forward - Ryan Anderson.
Image

Shooting Guard - Jason Richardson.
Image

Point Guard - Jameer Nelson.
Image


And of course, who can forget our Babe of the day. I sometimes think I have missed this more than the actual Basketball.

Scola is fundamentally against defending the outside shot. Ryan Anderson is going to have a field day against Scola.

I know it's the beginning of the game but you can already see the difference Dalembert is going to make on the defensive end......

I dont ever want to see Dalembert shoot 18 foot jumpshot. I dont care if he hit it that time.

But Dalembert is playing exceptionally well for someone who hasn't even practiced with the team yet. I'm hopeful.

YES! Much prefer Dragic over Flynn.

Don't like Morris at the 4 but we dont have a choice.
