    Bad game for Yao if he doesn't score 40pts or more. :(

    I forgot it is back to back. Hopefully we can FINALLY win on the road but I wouldn't be suprised if we lost...

    Can this game be our 1994 WCSF's game 3 where we turn Choke City into Clutch City ? Let's hope so because we cannot afford these 4th quarter choke jobs any longer.... :(

    I expect Yao to be tired from playing last night and since RA does not use Deke, Al Jefferson will murder Yao and we will lose 108-99

    Al Jeff is out. He tore his ACL (or was it MCL?) and hes out for the season. More reason for Yao to dominate.

    Yeh hopefully Yao can dominate since Al isn't round to carry the wolves.

    Ow right, totally forgot about that. Still the spirit of Al is in the building and will keep Yao from dominating.

    Yao doesnt have any excuse not to have a big game tonite. Al Jeff is out. T-Pups are too small.

    Nothing shakes off the bitterness of defeat like a win!

    Come on Rockets, you've been playing outstanding as of late (aside from last night). T-Wolves shouldn't pose too much of a problem


    Adelman really needs to figure out a strategy for when defenders front Yao... We have yet to figure anything out and that lies solely on the coach

    If the Rockets can't win this one we've got some serious problems. The T-Wolves are in tank mode right now.

    Kinda funny, when we lose the game behind a scheduled game, we are all like. OMG please dont lose this, dont choke. But when we win behind a scheduled game, we are like yeah, omg lets extend our winning streak.
