    Unlike this time last year, I'm genuinely excited to see them play. 3 days seems like a really long time but I'm glad they got the rest.

    The Bulls smashed the thunder by 20 and lead by 20 plus in Sac Town. Looks like we beat a good team and the result was not to bad.

    I am very confident that this will be a blowout win by the Rox.

    Rox by 20+.

    As a life long fan of the Houston Oilers, I can definitely feel his pain. Just watching that game gave me goose bumps and brought back some unsavory memories.

    Harrell will get over it, though. He needs to focus his anger on the Warriors/Cavs/Spurs and pretend that they are all Tom Brady, sort of like the trick used on Adam Sandler in the Waterboy movie.

    It is not possible the Magic wins this game. If they lose, refs did it.

    You never get over it. Pittsburgh still hurts, as does Buffalo.

    The players got plenty of rest. I hope they found inspiration in the Patriots historic comeback win -- overcome whatever obstacles, stay together and fight to the last minute. Sounds corny, but that's how New England got their 5th championship trophy.

    Well, the Rockets did come back from 8 down with just over 2 minutes left to get their last win.

    Good news is they don't have Oladipo who always kills us on both sides.

    Yes, don't get trapped by tarp games, Rockets.

    @omgTHEpotential could do a photochop of this for our new game meme for Tarp Game. Beard or maybe Brewer getting trapped by the tarp.

    I will not be accepting any excuses of the team being "rusty" in this game. Can't complain about the tough schedule, finally get some rest and then complain about being rusty.

    That said, I expect the Rockets to win by double digits.

    Expecting Gordon to get back to form. We need him to be on his game off the bench. Lets blow these guys out.
