[Comment From Cliff Keyes]
I think Artest saw this playoff as an opportunity to show he is as good as or better than Kobe and this is effecting his play.

SINCE WE ARE A SMALLER TEAM THAN LA NOW SHOULD WE FRONT GASOL LIKE THEY DID YAO?

12:14

Ramona Shelburne - I think we're getting started in a minute or two, but feel free to send questions in for myself and Jon

12:14

Jonathan Feigen - I'm here, too. I guess we can start, and I'll go ahead and offer an answer to all-caps guy.

Jonathan Feigen -

It's one thing to front, Andrew. That can help deny the ball. But Portland also sent a second big man to help from behind. The Rockets cannot afford to do that against the Lakers and the triange. It would slow Gasol, but other Lakers would kill them. And though it slowed Yao, the Rockets did win that series.

Artest has a bad crab dribble and needs to focus on D-Fence

12:17

Ramona Shelburne -

I agree Jon, teams have not had much success fronting Gasol this year

12:17

Jonathan Feigen - The Rockets need Artest to be a part of the offense. They don't need him to dribble the bumps off the ball.
