The Rockets played their second game without Yao Ming , who sustained a season-ending stress fracture in his left foot in Game 3.

Bryant looked more like himself after being held to 15 points on Sunday. With the Lakers far ahead after holding the Rockets to only 15 points in each of the second and third quarters, he sat out the fourth period. We said if we turn it over against this team we're going to be in big trouble.

That's exactly what we did. The second and third quarters are about as bad as we've played in a long time. Lamar Odom and Josh Powell had 10 apiece. Brooks was held to 14 points after scoring a career-high 34 on Sunday. Ron Artest had a horrible night shooting, 4-of for nine points. The Rockets shot only 32 percent. Full Site Menu Return to Top.

The Lakers offensive performance or lack thereof in game one was a fluke.

The Rockets are unquestionably better defensively than the Jazz, and, for one quarter, the Lakers were still able to score at will against the Rockets. Pau Gasol was much improved , 22 points and 14 rebounds and was back to nailing the types of shots he has been hitting all year. He also did a much better job of attacking Yao, part of why Ming had foul trouble and was so ineffective.

That being said, the Lakers performance in the 1 st quarter was also a fluke. The rest of the game gave a clearer picture of what this series will be like. Ron Artest played outside of his mind tonight, right up until he lost his mind more on this later , and this should scare Lakers fans.

For the 2 nd game in a row, Artest played great on the offensive end. He also completely out muscled Ariza, causing Jackson to play Walton 20 min almost as much as Ariza 25 min. If he can keep it up over the course of the series, beating the Rockets becomes considerably more difficult than advertised. Andrew Bynum is not likely to provide a strong contribution to this series. Bynum was benched after an ineffective game one, and only managed 10 minutes of playing time in a game in which Yao Ming only played 26 minutes because of foul trouble.

And he got out-rebounded by Aaron Brooks. Stat line for the Lakers bench: 22 points on shooting, 4 rebounds, 7 assists, and 7 steals.
