    That doesn't mean anything. It doesn't matter if they were lottery pics or anything. You can be a 2nd round pick and be better than a 1st round pick.

    Darko Milic (1st round 2nd pick) or Carlos Boozer ( 2nd round pick ) who would you rather have??

    well forget Boozer since he is a Jazz and I know how people feel about him.. So replace him with David Lee, Jason Maxiell, or even Leon Powe

    I'm gonna say we win this one, but it won't be pretty.
    I predict that both teams will play a sloppy game til the fourth, and then the Rockets will execute down the stretch for the win. (at home)
    98-93

    Should be an easy win because we are no longer mentally soft now that T-Mac is gone. I hope we can win, can't say we will and I don't want to jinx our chances.

    i have a question if anyone knows the answer??

    T-Mac said he was out for the season but didn't address it to the team. He said he is going with the surgery but hasn't had it yet because he is receiving 2nd and 3rd options. Can McGrady come back and play this season or if he does is there a fine and punishment for false information??

    yeah it means something. while there definitely have been second rounders who are better than first rounders, the majority of talented players right now were first rounders, in particular lottery picks. so if you collect up lottery picks like the bobcats do, their young players are more likely going to be better than ours (although i think there's something to be said for morey's capability to acquire talented youth despite our low draft picks).

    Good point, we are scared of sub 500 team. No, we actually freaking fear sub 400 team. I think we have a sub 500 record against sub 400 teams so far this year. I am dead serious here. LOSS. :eek:

    This is a loss for Rockets 105-91. We will all proceed to deem the Lowry trade a mistake and then complain how horrible Lowry is.

    we're certainly capable of sucking in games we're suppose to win, but we've been playing well and here's hoping we've finally turned a corner

    I say we win this

    I think we'll finally break the streak of winning one or two, then losing one. It'll be nice to win three in a row and remain in good standing in the West.

    With TSlack, we lose especially to the non-playoff teams. Without him, we're got a great chance of winning.
