Houston has their own issues, but they're going to be pissed after getting beaten down in game one.

Definitely not expecting a win tonight, though it would be nice if they could somehow pull it off.

Anti-Jinx? I don’t think people realize that like the Lakers, Houston is going through a adjustment period. they let Ariza and Luc Mbah walk when they were responsible for there success last year, they also have James Ennis starting and we wasn’t starting last year.. so the Rockets arent invincible right now until they develop a new identity with there new players. |

I'll be there too, so together we're going to get the job done, with the help of the guys on the floor, of course. Shut down Beardo Weirdo, as we call Harden.

Luke Walton says he will go with the same starting lineup he used against Portland when the Lakers host Houston on Saturday: Rajon Rondo, Kentavious Caldwell-Pope, LeBron James, Brandon Ingram and JaVale McGee.

LeBron will play Carmelo in his Lakers home opener tonight.
15 years ago they matched up as rookies, in LeBron's first NBA game in Cleveland. |

Considering how much the Rocket's defense sucks, this is a must win game for the Lakers...!

I think he values Hart as the 6th man guy right now, he knows KCP will eventually start putting up efficient numbers. |

The two situations are nothing alike. The Lakers have a whole new team. It's not comparable, but knowing you, you'll try your best to fit that square peg into the round hole regardless.

You can’t be serious, the Rockets aren’t the same team from last year.. even expert NBA analysts say that.. there gonna struggle to win games unlike last year it’s the reality.. I won’t be shocked if they win tonight but I also won’t be surprised if we blow them out with our fast pace. |

| I like Hart matched up against Gordan off the bench.. He's usually a problem for us. |

KCP has no business starting ahead of Josh Hart. This reminds me of the beginning of last year when Luke refused to start Randle. |

if KCP finds his groove again he is a better fit in the starting line, he can do things better that Hart can’t do yet.. |

???
*start the 5 best
*start the 5 best at each position
*start the 5 that fit/mesh together don't worry about the second squad
*start 3 or 4 best and even out the second squad a little
*match up every night according to opponents |

What can he do better than Hart? Hart is an all around better player and has much more upside than KCP.

Rondo
KCP
Ingram
LeBron
McGee
Lonzo
Hart
Svi
Kuzma
Mo
Insert Lance or Beasley with Rondo and LBJ so they can't screw up the young kids. That second unit gives Zo four shooters with which to shine and they won't defer to Lance's poor man Kobe impression. |
