Needless to say, Rockets guard Aaron Brooks(notes) didn't think he'd score 34 points, destroy the Lakers and end up on the postgame interview podium when he got dressed at home for Game 4 on Sunday.

"I got kind of tricked a little bit," Brooks told Jonathan Feigen of the Houston Chronicle. "We all have these red jackets. One of the players (Chuck Hayes(notes)) wrote on the board it was mandatory to wear them. I figured if I had to wear a jacket like this, I was going to go all out and make it look real ridiculous."

Aaron Brooks played with heart and a sense of urgency.If the Lakers are going to win anything,they better play with a sense of urgency no matter who they face just like the Cavaliers do.
