Carl Landry if he signs back with the rockets

Answer 1

nope. the lakers are more celtics than the rockets. getting artest was good but theyre still not as good as LA

Answer 2

I think we'll see a repeat of last year from Kobe when he demanded to be trade after Celtics traded for KG.  

Kobe jocker are going to be crying again.

Answer 3

alston = rondo.. different styles of play but about same overall

t mac=pierce pierce is better defender

artest<r allen allen hit a c**p load of 3s but artest is good at D

scola >perkins perkins did pretty good in a few games

KG<yao KG is juss overall better than yao in every aspect

but rockets got better bench with battier n head

Answer 4

Yep and i'm from Boston

Answer 5

Err...we shall see.Let's just hope Ron doesn't start another fight and get suspended for 60 games.

Answer 6

Their starters are pretty good now, but they don't really have much of a bench.

Answer 7

No you cant compare the two when the Rockets are injury prone and T-Mac is cursed

Answer 8

To the first answer what do you know about sports. You probably some Celtics fan and just mad that the Rockets ARE the Celtics of the west maybe better. Well see. But Ill give you a ticket to the Rockets bandwagon train. It leaves August 1.

Answer 9

h**l no

Answer 10

I predicted this team would win 60 games last season and they finished with 55. If they're healthy and happy, I don't see why they go to Finals and knock out any team from the east.

With the addition of Artest, this team is now balanced as h**l. No one player has to share the responsibility of scoring or defense...sound familiar? Yeah, Artest, McGrady, Ming, very similar to Garnett, Allen, Pierce.

Answer 11

You forgot Steve Francis who when healthy is more than a decent backup.

They are now in the running for best in the west if the team can gel.

Answer 12

They don't have a chance against L.A.

PG- Derek Fisher

SG- Kobe Bryant.

SF- Lamar Odom

PF- Pau Gasol

C- Andrew Bynum
