Kobe Goes Cold Against Rockets

Uh, Houston? We have a problem.

That seems to be the glaring theme tonight after Kobe went ice cold, scoring just 18 points on 5 of 20 shooting, while the Rockets blasted the Lakers 101-91. Of greater concern was Kobe's right groin, an injury he originally suffered last week against New Orleans, which he apparently re-aggravated in the first quarter. He was nice enough to stay in the game and play through it.

In a strange twist, only one Rocket starter scored in double figures tonight: Aaron Brooks led all scorers with 33 points. But it was still enough to hand the Lakers their second straight loss and third of the season.
