HOUSTON ROCKETS

SF - SHANE BATTIER
SG - TREVOR ARIZA
PG - AARON BROOKS

LA LAKERS
C - ANDREW BYNUM

I feel optimistic about this game, as in I'm calling a win. From our conference I'm scared of Dallas more than LA, honestly speaking.

Instead of predicting a win or a loss, we should be predicting how many techs will be called this game.

Predict Ariza's stat-line is also a fun game.

I say 15 points, 4 rebounds, 4 assists, 6 turnovers, 34% FG, 25% 3PT

I agree, I too think he will go 0-7 (averages 7 three's a game) from behind the arc.

ariza is gonna try to do too much since he is playing his former team, which mean headaches and more headaches. i say 15 points on 5/25 shooting, and 5 tos.

San Antonio, Denver, and Dallas lost today. Makes the sting from the loss last night hurt a bit less. SA and Denver both lost to sub-500 teams too.

He did a good job on Kobe when the Rockets beat the Lakers in L.A.
