    No way in hell that the Rockets are winning tonight.

    I would pull a spurs and rest Howard, the beard and Bev.

    According to the Root Sports postgame show last night....errrr, early this morning, that's required by the NBA because of the late start time of the Denver game. I've been following the Rockets for a long time, and I've never seen this quick of a turnaround on a B2B. I hope they have something left in the tank.

    If you wanna look at recent history for reassurance, the Rockets had that OT win in Minnesota and less than 24 hours later had to follow up at home against Phoenix(who are about as good recordwise as the Pelicans) and dominated them until late in the 4th when they ran out of steam and had to hold on. And that game was played without Dwight, Canaan, and Papa.

    No way in hell? C'mon, if Dwight can go tonight, they've got a decent shot even though they'll be dog ass tired. If they get Terry back(and maybe even Papa), I'd give them an even better shot. Look at New Orleans' road record. It's pretty bad.

    Howard going to play? There was talk back to backs might be tough for him. He was 10-15 on FTs last night. Excellent game from him. Post up Dmo and have Howard clean up the weak side

    Season scheduling is weird especially when you're involved in National games.

    It would have made more sense to have this game on Monday or Tuesday with the days off we had in between.

    Hope these guys have something left in the tank for the home crowd.

    The bench definitely needs to give some major production because they were pitiful last night.(I'm looking at YOU Nick Johnson, tho you had a nice 3 tho)
