So, Rockets won the FT battle 4 out of 6gms...With each team getting a gm where the ft shooting is an 8-10 shot advantage. But the game 5, the Lakers shot 20 more Ft's coming off of a loss in Houstan where the ft shooting was only a 2 shot diff....Once again, the Lakers also lose in gm 6 with the ft shooting is a 2 shot diff....so...Expect the Lakers to totally own the FT Shooting battle in this Game!!
I hope this doesn't follow the games 4,5 and 6 pattern, otherwise were looking at a blowout. Lakers should win by 10+ at home. I'm just hoping for a good, close, grind it out game that wears down a team before they have to play Denver. Cheering for Houston, realistically, LA has this.
When Kobe gets frustrated he's been known to take it out on his teammates, as a Lakers fan you must have seen this happen, so don't act like you don't know what I'm talking about.

game 5 is deceiving though... they were pretty much even in the first half and the lakers were still up by a lot.... the second half is when the lakers lived @ the line
I think L.A. will come out with a chip on it's shoulder. Also, they feel a great level of comfort at home, and will come out firing. It Houston can survive that initial onslaught, I believe it has a chance to win the game. Just keep it close, because I can see this game getting out of hand early on.
Houston has no pressure on it whatsoever. A team playing with "house money" can be very dangerous.
Joey "The Fixx" Crawford will be there. Stern won't allow the Fakers to lose. Watch 1) Hayes get in foul trouble early on. 2) Fakers free throw parade 4th quarter.
