    gonna be tough.
    - they are deeper than us
    - and the depth is more talented.
    - in terms of matchups... lowry gonna have a hard time staying in front of lawson (btw, i think lowry should become or start using the post in his offensive game to take on smallerpoint guards (like miller, billups, williams)
    - gallo gonna be tough but at least he's not quick off the dribble
    - im not scared about nene vs. scola
    - both teams centres are mainly defensive
    - hopefully afflalo cant keep up with martin (anyone know if and how he defended martin last time?)
    - we needa good game by lee, dragic, and bud in order to keep up with the other teams bench scoring
    - hoepfully we get a win.. i see the blazers as a more realistic chance imo

    More scola at center for a better draft positioning.

    Denver is what the Rockets should be.

    They are a very deep team but people that say they have no superstar should really wake up...the guy isn't a superstar yet but he's only 23 and will probably become one.

    We aren't TOUGH enough defensively to compete with the Nuggets. Denver will dominate.

    Our Rockets need a check up from the neck up!

    We're their "get well" game. Nuggets by 10.

    Until we get tougher on defense we can't compete with strong teams.

    Sad but true.

    It's a road game for us, and we are 3-8 on the road. We have a shot, but I wouldnt bank on it. If we play on the road like we do at home, then I would like our chances.

    I think if there is any team out there that you could compare the Rockets to as far as talent goes, I think its the Nuggets. For some reason though their fan support and media attention is much greater for only having a slightly better record.

    I will admit that they do play very well together and do have a better chance at making noise in the playoffs just for their sheer cohesiveness on the court. They just play very well together and are extremely well coached. This is the team the Rockets could be if they get their act together.

    Despite having similar talent and records, Its a shame that the Rockets and their fans couldnt rise to the level that the Nuggets are sure to achieve this season. Hopefully they both prove me wrong.
