THE ROCKETS COULD TAKE OUT THE LAKERS IN THEIR UPCOMING SERIES. THE ONE THING THAT HOUSTON HAS GOING FOR THEM IS YAO MING. HE HAS THE ABILITY TO HANDLE SHAQ. AND IF STEVE FRANCIS HAS A STRONG SERIES, YOU NEVER KNOW, THE ROCKETS COULD VERY WELL PULL OFF AN UPSET AND SEND THE LAKERS HOME FOR THE SUMMER. LAKERS FANS, DON'T OVERLOOK THE ROCKETS!! THEY COULD JUMP UP AND BITE YA! AND NO! I'M NOT A KINGS FAN. I AM AN NBA FAN WHO IS JUST GIVING HIS OPINION ON THIS SERIES.
I am a LONGTIME (no bandwagon here) laker fan and I do agree with what you say, however. the rocks are a dangerous team and it doesnt help that rick and karl are not 100%. kareem and devean are a little banged up too. but the one thing that my lakers have that houston does not is championship experience. thats really important at this time of the year. and if my main man shaq can dominate as in years past then i think they got a pretty good shot at taking houston in 6. any way you look at it, the west is going to be tuff no matter who plays who. and yes even those sloutches from up north can be tuff. we'll see what happens but it should make for some pretty good games.
