    What new crazy defense is JVG going to start off with tonight?

    JHo at PG?

    In all seriousness, I think tonight will be a much better indication of where we're at than last night - last night just seemed like JVG told his starters to take the night off so the kids could play and get some floor time.

    Top 10 !!! Yeah :D

    Ofcourse we win,they are playing without Bogut and Simmons.
    Spanoulis and Snyder will have strong games,I expect Snyder to block at least 2 shots :D

    At the game tonight! Hoping to see Bonzi! And see how the starters play together.

    Wondering if Jacobsen and Lucas get any time tonight?

    Last night his straters were slackin it. They got more minutes than they have had before and couldnt get ahead. That zone that they were playing might have been the reason why they werent able to score alot (they were running around alot on defense). Yao did his usual grabbing of the knees. They were probally saving theirselves for tonight. Once again, bonzi will not play.

    First half = projected starting lineup - so that people can get use to YAO

    second half = test all the bench

    Our bench was much improved against the Mavs, which is a good sign. I still can't wait to see Bonzi added to the mix, he must be close to ready to play in a preseason game because I'd like to see what he brings to this Rockets side.

    Good to see Yao back on the court and finally a chance for the rookies to get use to Yao once again in tonight's game.

    Interested in seeing some more of Billy tonight. Was impressed with his improvement from the last 2 games. HarryAzz didn't look to bad either! :cool:

    Will the game again be played on the shanghai channel, which means we can watch it on TVants or sopcast?

    Who's gonna guard Redd? Hopefully not Tmac. I'd hate to see our guy chase around Ray Allen#2. Let's put Snyder on him.
