The only time I will ever say this: Thank You, Lakers!!!

Celtics strolled into Los Angeles tonight with a 19 game winning streak and all sorts of media attention the Rockets lacked last year until we got to 20 wins in a row. So yeah, it's safe to say I wasn't exactly rooting for the Celtics tonight...

and the Lakers gave me a surprise Christmas gift. Thank you, Kobes!

The Celtics' streak over.
The Rockets' Streak still remains the tops of our era and 2nd all time.
(The Rockets' Streak gets capitalized as a proper noun. The Celtics' version does not. For obvious reasons.)

22 > 19

Now the Rockets can focus on destroying the Utah Jazz on Saturday:

"My name is Tracy McGrady. You killed my 2008 season. And my 2007 season. Prepare to die."

WHOA, WHOA!

I’m looking forward to destroying the Jazz too, but we must first focus on beating the Hornets tomorrow!

I'm not that type

I don’t buy into the “don’t look ahead” and “take ’em one game at a time” cliches. These guys are professional athletes… the game is basketball. They will be ready for both games.
