    I'm watching Lakers vs Pacers. I'm all for Pacers; if Lakers lose this game, it will give us a bit more chance for a playoff spot!

    Scola on Love will be a nightmare to watch.

    I think Lowry will be able to hold his own. Scola is going to struggle mightily with Love's rebounding and ability to shooting from 3. Dalembert will be key.

    If we win this we could be looking @ an 11 game winstreak pretty vital game in my mind to think we could be 14-7 by the end of the month after this we have , milwaukee - washington - new york - minny all at home! c'mon we need to win tonight i think scola is key also our bench must destroy their second unit . Parker ripped us up with his penetration and thats what rubio and ridnour like to do so stopping penetration and making the wolves a jumpshooting team will be the way to win ! Defense wins games!

    Parsons will shut down Beasley.

    We've won the last 9 out of 10 games against the T-Wolves over the past three years

    I just have a bad feeling that Love is going to own us all night.

    We can't contain Love, we just have to hope Lowry outplays Rubio and Ridnour and that Sammy wins the matchup with Milicic. PG and C matchups are the key tonight.

    Lowry will destroy Rubio. Rubio will be in foul trouble all night if he tries to guard him. I expect Luke to guard Kyle. Daly is key but Luis better step his game up.

    I see us winning by 12.

    This is the beginning of a rivalry in Rockets basketball folks. Sit back and enjoy the ride. I think both teams will be playing hard and I think Rick Adelman's favorite old players will look to impress their former coach; Rockets win 110-103.

    Tonight will be an interesting game.

    Dalembert vs Darko - The Bear will be feasting on twolves!
    Scola vs Love - damn!..:(
    Martin vs Ridnour - bring a flashlight because Martin will shoot the light out!!
    Lowry vs Rubio - LOWRY!! Rubio is on lock down tonight.
    Parsons vs Wesley Johnson - Even.

    There's no reason to be worried about this game. We have the more established talent. Rockets win in blowout fashion.

    What is the lovefest with Wesley Johnson? I don't even think he's had a good game this season LOL. Everytime I look at his FG% its something silly like 4-9.
