Playoff Game #7: Rockets at Lakers

Yoa Ming is out. And when it comes to Game 7s, you need your top performers to be in there. Kobe is going to get his. And without Ming, the Rockets have responded well. But it is crunch time.

There is NO need to delve into stats. In times like this, Superstars shine.

I will say this, the Lakers are 5-1 at home in the playoffs. The Rockets are 2-4 on the road.

Forecast: I don't like the Lakers. I am not a Laker fan... not now, not tomorrow, not the next day. With that said, the Lakers are better than the Rockets. The Rockets are without a key player, injured earlier in this series. This is where that injury will be felt, as the Lakers win this series and move onto the Nuggets. Score: 107-94.
