    Well, so far the Rox have not had a 3 game losing streak this year. Do I think that they can beat the Lakers on Thursday? Yep, that is if Steve is back and at least 90%. We really missed his scoring against the Spurs even though I must admit Moochie had a good first half.

    One good thing about Thursday is that Mo T. won't have to worry about guarding a premier forward in the West but as we all know there is Shaq and Kobe. Kobe has been on a terror this year and think stopping him will be the key to a Rockets win.

    Cato and Dream will also need to "slow down" Shaq and not let him get into a rhythm. And if the game is close at the end the old hack a Shaq should get us a win as well.

    I think we need to eliminate the second chance shots as well. It seemed that against the Spurs they got so many second shots and then capitalized on them.

    I sure hope the crowd can get into the game as well and I hope that it is a near sellout.
