    I would be happy if we lose within 10 points.

    I think that would have us beating the spread. I think we are an 11 pt underdog.

    With KG, there is no way the Celtics are hitting cruise control. Now if only we could say that about TMac....

    Yao and Garnett cancel each other out. As for Ray Allen and Paul Pierce...umm we got nobody right now that can match numbers with them.

    Loss by over 20 pts.

    The Rockets could've use an assistant coach like Tom Thibodeau instead of Adelman's son...

    Looking at Celtics record makes me even more angry... GOD DAMN IT :mad:

    Not nice to say screw you guys, grow up a bit, thanks.

    don't confuse pessimism with realism. I hope I'm wrong. I hope the rox come out like the giants did agains the pats--except hold on to win the game. :eek:

    I want the roxs to win like the next guy, but it is going to have to be a near perfect game from the roxs...regarding ft shooting, t/o s, 3 pt shooting, fast break points, rebounding...etc.

    Would it be wrong to watch this game and root for the other team, and just appreciate the great basketball they play?

    I never thought I say this, but I think we are going to get destroyed.

    I want a W so badly, but don't really see it coming.

    Either way.....Go Rockets.

    I predict a loss,sorry guys be real,we can't beat Sixers and we're talking about Celtics?!
    I'm not pesimistic but unless miracles occur there's no win for us,consider that Boston has only won loss on home court.

    The team that beat them at home was the Pistons.

    And the Rockets are only about 4 or 5 good players away from being Piston-esque.

    more like 1-2.

    once we get t-mac back, we're about on par.

    we did beat them the first time we played.

    I predict the loss that will turn this season around.

    Rockets lose by 8 points.

    Rick Adelman declares moral victory.

    Rafer and Bonzi says the team has turned around.

    Yao now lays claim to the team - it is his officially.

    T-Mac demands to be traded because he realises that if he played, the team would have lost by double digits because it is on him.

    GARM starts a 'let's get our Big 3 minus T-Mac thread'.

    (damn, I knew I needed to stop drinking and smoking those stuff :D)

    (for kids, I am kidding, I don't drink and smoke at all... I know... sad life... :D)

    The only thing I see happening is Glen Davis showing us why we should've picked him instead of the midget duck and going off on us..

    the game is decided when Boston takes a 40 point lead at halftime, they rest their starters in the 2nd half and Scalabrine finishes the entire 2nd half at center and has an elbow shootout with Deke..

    stats:
    Luther Head-3 points, 4 stitches (as a result of a Scalabrine elbow to the Head)
    Alston-12 points on 3-20 from teardrop range, 6 stitches over the eye (same reason)
    Bonzi-15 points, leaves the game from Beer-belly disturbance after collision with Scalabrine
    Shane faints

    :D
