yea... I want that BT too... I want to see the crowd reaction for an alley-oop, or crossover... I think that this trip will help establish a connection among the team... I mean, they are in the same hotel together, and aren't they going to eat Chinese food at Yao's house? I think this trip was perfect in a weird way for our new team...
Rockets 90 Kings 82 Yao finishes the game with a windmill dunk on the ex-jazz Ostertag and yell out "This is my house! B!tch! "
I'm going to the game tonight Feeling so excited that I can't concentrate on my work at all, need to somehow sit in the office and kill some tiem until 5:00pm here. It's only 9:30am now!
Its on at 9.30pm in Tasmania, Australia, so I cant wait. Does anyone know whether Webber is playing with his sore knee??
I won't have to record the game... I'll be there! I'm studying abroad this semester (thank god for "International Business") My roommate Xihang Woi has tickets. YEA!
6:30 am is early......i dont sleep go to sleep til 10 am...i kno imma be blowed when im watching it....lol
I don't know if I am going to beable to wake up for this one. 6:30am is early. Tomorow is my later day where I don't need to wake up before 10:30. I will try to wake up, but I will set my computer to record the game just incase. Or I might wait till the replay, unless it confilcts with the Stros.
Interesting tibit: In practice today, Jim Jackson, Tracy Mcgrady, Bostjan Nachbar, Juwan Howard, Yao Ming were on the same team. This may be the starting lineup against the Kings. The only thing i'm not sure about in this lineup is Jim Jackson at point. I would much rather have Ward start, and have Lue, Taylor, Jim Jackson, Mutombo be our backups. Thats a HELL of a second unit. I know Jimmy is CAPABLE of playing point, but who's going to back up Boki then? Bowen? Or have Jimmy play 38+ mins again? Also what about Lue then? 5 minutes as a third string? No and no and no. I guess Jeff wants Jimmy in there because with Boki in, we will need more shooters. But Ward can also shoot. Maybe its for rebounding. Any how, i would rather him back up Boki. Boki will still only play ~20 mins, and Jimmy ~33 mins with backup time behind SF and SG. In anycase, I am fully supportive of Boki starting. He will gain some much needed confidence, and will have more of an oppurtunity to play off of Yao and Tmac. Some people have commented that Boki is more comfortable feeding off of our stars, rather than creating. This should address that. Then again, they were probably just mixing it up in practice.
