    D Rose destroys us............

    There front court > Rockets

    We need to hit 50% of our 3's to win.

    The good guys are playing with a lot of confidence. Team chemistry is greatly improved. We should win. Otherwise, " can't win them all".

    Last game:

    Miller had 21, hopefully he can put up 15+

    Kmart had a bad shooting night

    Bud didnt play

    Lee was a non-factor

    Hill had 5 rebs in only 5 mins

    And scola had 27, but only 5 rebs.

    I'd hope Kmart can have a better shooting game, so Scola can sit more and hill can see more mins for def and rebounding. Our starters played too many minutes last game and that shouldnt be the case this time around.

    Gotta put Drose on his ass more this game. He shot 13 of 20.

    I think JVG is right, the Bulls not having a scoring two really hurts them.
    Noah and Boozer inside is a good combo, does what the other doesn't do as well. Rose, well obvious, but need another guard who can score.

    Anyway, four point game (either way) going into the fourth quarter.
    Rockets pull it out, somehow, by seven.

    Let's not make back 2 back excuses as the bulls just lost against the celtics last night, that being said, I expect another big game from lowry sinse rose won the first matchup meeting vs each other.Rockets wins as the dude from very above described that we don't lose to teams we lost to in our 1st matchups, Rockets win easily!

    Can we call up PPat already, I'm tired of watching Hill on offense.

    "Afterthought from the West!!!!!" Now, they have ticked us off. They are going down. :mad:

    We can talk down the team, but nobody else can!

    I agree, but this team is atrocious on the 2nd game of back to backs.

    youre right 4 solid quarters of b-ball is the goal, but it's alot better to make sure that the 1st quarter is taken care of in this type of game..most nba games have 2-2 splits when it comes to who wins each quarter, so we can't expect to outscore them every quarter.

    We need this Win badly.

    If we win tonight, we are targeting a 18-14 record by the end of December, that will keep us in contention for playoffs, making our players more valuable then they are right now (easier for Morey to work his magic)...

    Some will say that tanking is better, I think that making the playoffs should be the target.

    I always had the opinion that we would strougle at the beginning, and start balling after the mid-season, the question was can we keep ourselvs close in the beginning???

    Until today we played horribly bad or scary good (offensively), but I think we have a chance of making the playoffs, and our big opponents will be Pho, and NO (will start to losing), but one thing is certain, the West is weaker, and I am specially talking about Pho and Portland....

    But as opposed to yesterdays game, we need to play D, because Chicago will

    Let´s GO ROX

    I think it is more about the 4th quarter. The losses illustrated that decisively and without a shred of doubt.

    Every big smart point guard is assasin for Rockets. Rose, Deron, Chauncey, J-wall, even freak without a brain and control of the game (also known as russell westbrook) gave OKC a lot of fire.

    This is time for Courtney Lee

    It's all about D and 2 chance points. we'll struggle from 3 point range cause we gave up everything we have last night, so if we can handle Rose (Courtney) - we can win. No? Loss number....

    Martin had a hard time against their defense in Houston. Let's see how he responds today. Very tough game. Expecting better colective D against Rose.

    Rebounding is the big key to this game. Rockets squeak by in a close one, 97-95. (Ish Smith has a HUGE game.)
