I was in the car listening to the 4th Q on satellite radio - they had the Rockets feed. A quick summary of the Rockets' announcers calling the game (some of their takes may surprise you):

    - LeBron is excellent at spreading the ball around and getting people involved.

    - The Lakers hustle on defense because LeBron involves them on offense.

    - McGee & Dwight shut down the paint.

    - Frank Vogel is doing a masterful job in a very high pressure job.

    - The Lakers' assistant coaches do a great job of preparing the players.

    - The Lakers have a good mix of players surrounding LeBron & AD.

    - The Rockets have no chance if their shots aren't falling.

    - The Rockets are great going downhill but awful going uphill.


I thought it was interesting, given the incessant bashing that the Lakers take on this board . . .

Mark Jackson did have a great line in the 2nd half though, I believe as the officials were checking the replay monitor. He said something like "I hear they have great camera work here in Houston." It took a few moments for Mike Breen and Jeff Van Gundy to finally understand the reference!

They were trying NOT to get on D'Antoni's ass about the team's 4th loss in 5 games . . . but they kept referencing the 4th loss in 5 games . . .

That Troy Daniels transition 3 with Caruso wide open under the basket

If Kuz hadn't come up with the rebound and putback I would've been livid. Welcome to today's NBA.

I actually think he shot it because he knew we still had a 2/3 chance of getting the rebound after a potential miss LOL. But yeah, probably should have passed it and just taken the sure two points!
