    Man, this is going to be really hard to pull off with most of our effective roster out of commission :/. Here's hoping Tracy pulls off the near impossible and we gut out a win (fool's hope? )

    rox win 82-77.

    Here, here!!

    This's got to be a VERY close one - no more than 5 points difference.

    Nugs will be nuts...I mean, S*@Ks.

    Tmac goes off with 60 pts. Rok wins by 30. Once and for all, this definitely, definitively proves we can win big without Yao. And :D :D Ubigred will start a thread to apologize for apologizing to Yao. :D :D

    Rybo doesnt deserve to start, shoot, pass, steal, do anything on this team, he has no offensive capabilities

    ryan bowen would not start for any other team in this league, and is the one of the worst offensive players in history.

    that being said...he's the most enjoyable nba player to watch.

    Nice to see Baxter is getting no respect.

    I think the guy is playing pretty well.

    Prediction: Baxter and Swift both foul out of the game in the first half.

    This is a grim team. The Rockets must have the worst layup shooting % in the league.

    We can win games shooting sub 30% from the floor.

    Same way the Toronto game was going: double McGrady the moment he touches the ball so that he has to pass, and then take your chances and let other players try to beat you.

    It just won't work until more offensive options are available along with McGrady. At the very least we need JB and DA back and gunning from the outside for other teams to regret cracking down defensively on McGrady like that.

    Also, we're DESPERATE for Mutombo to come back healthy, because opponents are getting layups against us.

    Really sad to see this skeleton of a team on the floor now, it's difficult to watch games nowadays...

    Right when you think a Rox game can't get any uglier than their last one-- there's always a new low that comes along....

    I wouldn't be shocked if Baxter, and Swift foul out in the first half at all.
