This was a good game, not just because they won, but because they didn't take any shit on the court.

That's because the Lakers ARE soft. Desperate times call for desperate measures.I have no problem that he did it on purpose. He did and he should be suspended for game 3. No big deal. What I can't stand is the Lakers denying that it was intentional. I also agree that it was a good game - especially because the Rockets played without Yao for most of it (Funny how that happened as many predicted it would) - and without Artest at crunch time and STILL GAVE LA ALL THEY COULD HANDLE. If LA ever gets into a situation where they have to play without Kobe for any length of time - it's over. Furthermore, if all things are equal - it's over. Yao + Artest is better than Kobe...The Rockets bench is better than LA's. The Rockets are more confident now than they were going in, and rightfully so.
