It's going to be a tough, tough series. If we don't have Landry, or Scola get in early foul trouble, or both, we are screwed. We can't play 3v5 on offense with Dike and Chuck. Rafer and Battier aren't particularly skilled offensive players either.

Kobe lives for these games, and we will see him take over down the stretch.

I am a realist, and I predict a Rockets loss. That said, I've predicted 4 losses in the stretch so far, so...take my prediction with the grain of salt it deserves.

In a regular season game, yes. But in a 7 game playoff series, the odds are against us.

And maybe if we're lucky, he'll shoot fire out of his a$$ too.

the question should be "can they beat us?"

Of course they can. They're the not the 1st place team in the west for no reason. But then again, we can beat them too. We're not the 2nd place team in the west for no reason either. Thats why its going to be a good game. And I'm gonna take a wild guess and say that why it got moved to ABC. I don't know about yall, but I can't wait.
