We need to win every game and play our hearts out for the last few games of the season. If Cleveland loses a game and we can win every game, we hold a tiebreaker over them. This win over the Rockets tonight can be the game that gives us momentum going into the playoffs. We played great against cleveland in the regular season and beat them twice, which gives us that tiebreaker over them. Lakers can't let that go to waste. It can only get better. Andrew Bynum is schedualed to return. Lakers need to use this as motivation and get homecourt advanatge in the playoffs. I hope the lakers don't give up and use the best of this oppurtunity.
Good post nastneem81 I couldn't agree with you more. We have 2 get the home court advantage. I think celevland is going 2 struggle down the streach, so I think it is important that we keep the momentum going, and win the rest of these games.

Well, the Maic beat us twice this season, both times with a bit of luck, both times we were wasting great chances, bot times our perimeter defense was mediocre or even bad, which made the Magic get hot from downtown. But, we're doing a pretty good job on Dwight, which is the key to beat the Magic, especially in the playoffs where teams strive to get as much high percentage shots as possible.

But you can't shoot every night like the Magic did against the Cavs with that poor defense, 3 pt. shot still remains a 3pt. shot, be it Ray Allen or 10x Ray Alen, Rashard Lewis or whoever can make an easy 3 pt. shot look easy ! :D

I may sound homer like, but I'm so much more confident when the Lakers play against Cleveland, Boston, Orlando, San Antonio, Rockets etc. which is considered to be the contending group of the elite teams.

Wow, Adelman. I haven't seen many Houston games, but what the hell was that? He let Gasol abuse Scola instead of his star Center defending? Yao was clearly pissed off sitting on the bench; i would be too.
