Superman's Teamate All-star Point Guard Jameer Nelson Returns

Hello NBA fans. I have some latest update on Orlando Magic. Do you know their NBA All-star point guard Jameer Nelson will be coming back? As coach Van Gundy said that even if Nelson doesn't play in Game 1, he could play later in the series. This will boosts Orlando Magic overwhelming confidence and momentum to try snatch game 1. Even if his rehabilitation will take at least two months from now, he is never been this eager to play. Since the Orlando Magic got to play in the playoffs, Jameer Nelson is persistent and wants to play if not for the good advices of Magic general manager Otis Smith and coach Van Gundy.

For Los Angeles Lakers, this is a bad news for Los Angeles Lakers' coach Phil Jackson and Los Angeles Lakers' superstar Kobe Bryant. Jameer Nelson will create another problem for Los Angeles Lakers for he is a good scorer. Kobe said that "They have a team full of them, but he is another player you're going to have to deal with on defense." Definitely, Jameer Nelson is no joke and will add up to the success of Orlando Magic's road to NBA championship. In the regular season Orlando Magic was 2-0 against Los Angeles. Nelson was Orlando's leading scorer in both those games, averaging 27.5 points. Phil Jackson quoted this, "Someone's got to play that position and we have to match whatever happens there. He has the speed and intelligence to play that position very well for that team."

Game 1 will start 06/04/09 9PM ET at Los Angeles Lakers home court, Staples Center.

Rockets Stagger Lakers -> 2-2 standings

The Houston Rockets drowned Los Angeles Lakers with a flourishing teamwork done in both ends of the floor. They have successfully defended even without their great player Yao Ming who suffered from left foot injury and will miss the entire playoffs. Sad to hear that their big man is out of the Playoffs but this does not stop the hungry Rockets to smash the stars of Lakers . The Rockets flooded three point shots in the first quarter that made large deficit to the lazy defense of Los Angeles Lakers . Shane Battier explodes in the first quarter making three point shots courtesy of Aaron Brooks who have done splendid job in distributing the ball and directing the flow of his team. I have to mention this name as I have watch him played, Hayes had done extra-ordinary job as 6 foot 6 inches tall guarding the 7 footer Pau Gasol to change his game style and made bad shots. Near the end of the second half with only a second to end the half, the unbelievable happened with Artest on the...
