    As much as preseason doesn't matter it would be nice for the rockets to win. Too many Dallas friends who will get in my face if they win. :).

    GO ROCKETS!

    Yeah, but surprisingly, it's better than Clyde and the commercials are great.

    I think we should pick matchups for Yao. Only let him use his energy against like Diop and sit him when Erika Dampier is in the game.

    Gonna be at the game tomorrow. I can't wait! Haven't been to a Rockets game since last New Year Eve game.

    For those of you who have been to a Mavs game in Dallas, do they allow DSLR camera inside the AA Center?

    Apparently Nowitizki isn't playing, so I'm expecting another huge first half for our starters. Can anyone confirm that Shanghai Sports will be streaming the game? Man I can't wait for this game.

    i dont think the result of the game as is important as the contributions given by the individuals at this time of the year.

    lets find out who can do what in there minutes.

    can novak build on his forst 2 solid games and etch himself a spot in the regular rotation?

    can Yao come back with some force?

    can McGrady keep it up?

    so many questions...

    Yao better be wearing feet armor

    scrubs usually tend to play hard to earn a roster spot and the last thing I want is some no name jumping up and down on Yao's feet

    I dont think the outcome of this match matters especially if Dirk is not playing

    it would merely be a game to warm-up the players and try a few plays here and there

    still I want us to come out with a win

    Hey R2K,

    Could you add somewhere in the first post that the game will supposedly be on HDNet (channel 1692 on TWC) in Austin?

    I'd be surprised if it didn't get blacked out, but perhaps with preseason, and it being on HDNet, maybe they'll actually show it! Austinites, have hope!!

    Thanks,

    thephatp

    FYI, it does NOT show up on the ONLINE programming guide for TWC. However, I found it on the DVR programming guide. So if you're looking online today, you won't see it. But when you get home...HOH YEAH! :D

    Hehe. There's something amusing about a "groin/tooth" injury. Sounds a little like "hoof and mouth diseaase."
