    Capela v Jokic will be the matchup to watch.

    Not that I think it'll happen again, but wasn't it vs the Nuggets back in November where Luc had his +57 game? That was an absolute ass-whooping the Rockets laid on Denver. And BTW, Ryno and EG both missed that game(although Ariza was in the lineup).

    Yes, that's the game. The Rockets were in the early stages of their long winning streak and we crushed them, winning by 30. Luc had that crazy +/- number that I still find hard to believe. Maybe I should be a little more optimistic!

    Whoever going to the game tonight, be careful. It's going to be raining bad tonight.

    Don't look now, but we have the longest active winning steak... Can't break it tonight, please.

    The Jazz actually have a 7-game winning streak going right now. And they host the Hornets who had to play an overtime game in Portland last night, so odds are that streak will be extended to 8 tonight.

    I'd imagine Gordon will be available with some recent time off, with Ariza still iffy.

    Looks like Gordon/Anderson are gametime decisions.

    This and Minnesota are the only games til the break where we could really use them. It sure would be nice if they(and Ariza) could be allowed to rest til the 23rd when the team returns from the break. That's another 2 weeks off.

    I still wish we would call up one of RJ or Troy . I want the rox to be conservative with Eric and Ryan ( in particular Eric )

    If we have 3 players out again , I think it would be nice to have an extra body that we could throw out there to help preserve the rest of the squad .

    I expect a good game from Clint tonight. Jokic is skilled as any big, but he ain't physically imposing. Jim and Chris will be epic. Gerald Green will continue to impress his hometown fans. Luc and PJ will be stout. Boring win imminent. Go Rockets!

    I have this last second urge to go to the game, but I really don’t feel like driving downtown :(

    Let’s make it 7 straight dubs!
