    Triple team Davis, mark Eric Gordan to make sure he doesn't make an open 3, another player to watch the rest of the team. Easy win.

    Their size gives us fits, and EGo has been fairly decent against us. Certainly not an easy win, and in fact could be very difficult if Dwight doesn't play.

    Can't see us winning it against AD. If we do win, it will be a big boost for us for our morale, and it will push the Pelicans closer to the lottery too.

    Must win?

    I think I'd like to play the Thunder sans Durant so a second seed would be the greatest spot to face either them or Dallas.

    If Howard's not playing then Anthony Davis is going for a career high in rebounds.

    Pretty good game to come back in. We won't need much offense out of him. Just defense and rebounding. I would give him 20-30 minutes in this game to help him catch his wind. Is Asik playing?

    I'll be there! As a Rockets fan at LSU in Baton Rouge I bought tickets to this game a while ago and the Dwight news has me even more pumped.

    McHale better handcuff these guys to their hotel beds when they're not at shootaround. The last thing we need is a repeat of the game at New Orleans right after New Year's. Still by far the lowpoint of the season.
