Brent Barry always gives made props to JLin. Not surprised he's following the Rockets so closely this season.

C-Webb is the best. He illuminates the darkness of ignorance that is NBAtv. I wish he was more prominantly featured on TNT. Side note: C-Webb predicted 46 FGAs for Kobe tonight.
I'm gonna channel me some Monty Williams here and just say that the league's new concussion policies are indeed silly at times. I want the Lakers defeated at full strength. I want no built-in excuses when they get run off the floor.
