To me Aaron Brooks response to a question after his Rockets won game six of their series against the Lakers was the best off the court moment of the NBA playoffs. The question was along the lines of Nobody has given you guys a chance all series. How do you take that into game seven? And Brooks shrugged his shoulders, smiled, and said "We still have no chance" before running into the locker room while high fiving Houston fans on his way.

    I have lived in Houston since 1984, and even when the Rockets WON two championships with Barkley Drexler and Olajuwon, they have necer been given the credit they deserve. I was soooooo pissed, having to listen to Costas and Walton bash them the whole way through the series i wanted to jump through the tv and choke them. I don't know if they will win against the Lakers, and i hope they do, as they have showed that they can!

      yea, I remember when Houston beat my Knicks...they had my respect and hate that year.

      They weren't given credit because MJ was too busy playing baseball...If Houston beat Jordan and the bulls, then that would be a different story but Houston lucked out on the fact that Jordan retired

    It would be the story of the playoffs if the Lakers fell to Houston without Yao in the lineup. Good reason for celebration. Kobe........do you want Shaq back???

    Kobe, or A-rod clone, why does it take 7 games to MAYBE beat a YAO-Less Rocket Team...where's all the crap talk about the Celtics, too...IF U get by Denver, Cleveland is going to sweep the crap out of You, ala 2008 BLUE-Collar Boston Style, a thourough beatdown...You LA Sissies!!
