houston is definately the hottest. they're playing out of their minds. the lakers on the other hand, are simply that good. nothing hot about it.

By far??

I think Spurs - Lakers would be much better.

Parker VS Fish
Manu VS Kobe
Bowen/Udoka VS Odom
Timmy VS Pau
Dirty Kurt/Oberto vs Bynum/Mihm

Finley/Stoudamire/Barry(once he resigns) vs Luke/Sasha/Ariza

Pop VS Phil

Will be a classic.

Lakers have beaten Orl and Phx duriing their streak


I'll give it to Houston........


There is your answer. You don't go on long win streaks by going through a tough schedule....so all you guys who complain about both schedules..stop.

What you can do is beat a few quality teams among the dead beats you ran through on your streak and Houston beat 2 more than the Lakers.

The Lakers have looked good, but the Rockets have just been playing out of their minds.

The guy on NBA tv followed up the recap of the Lakers game by shifting to the Rockets/Bulls highlights by saying 'and now for the hottest team in the league'...

Nuff said?

Who cares who the hottest team is!

Portland was the Hottest team before the All-Star break and they are looking into the playoffs!

Let me know when Houston finally gets out of the 1st round with T-Mac and Yao!

No it's not a random rant, I'm being honest, I want to see what these are made of in the playoffs cause they haven't done anything in the 1st round the past 2 years!

I am also being honest, I like their new uniforms better than their old ones.

Unfortunately for the both of us, neither of these points have anything to do with the OP's question.

Actually it does, did I not mention "Who cares who the hottest team is"???

If you need a clear cut answer for the Sake of arguing, Lakers are not hotter than the Rockets, Rockets are not hotter than the Lakers!

So if I said 'who cares who the hottest team is, the Rockets have better uniforms now then they used to!', that would somehow make it topical?

Ok.
