    Rockets will get rolling early (for once) and won't ever trail this game.

    Jason Collier is going to destroy Yao, scoring 56 points and hauling down every rebound from a shot that Lue/Ward miss, totalling 94 boards.

    Then Yao will lose his mind and challenge Shawn Bradley to a one-on-one match of badminton. If Yao loses, he promises to join the Mormon church. (This is an elaborate ruse by Yao though - with his fame and wealth, he sees no reason why he shouldn't be able to marry 29 women, and believes the Mormon church will allow him to do so. He will, therefore, purposely lose the game of badminton).

    Jason Collier will then go on to be the starting center in the All-Star game, beating Shaq by a mere three votes. Floridians will demand a recount, but Shaq will mysteriously disappear before the case can be brought to court.

    50 years later, it will be discovered that Shaq was busy recording a rap album with the ghost of ODB during the All-Star break. A dusty CD master will be found in the stomach of an alligator in south Florida, containing 5 dope tracks and a last will and testament. There will be a suggestion that Shaq, ODB, and Makavelli (a.k.a. 2pac) all survived their "deaths" and disappearances and became underground members of the Tri-Lateral commission, dedicating themselves to covertly influencing the course of world events in order to further the power of the Techno-Capitalist regime.

    Yao's 589 children will be happily living with prairie dogs in Nebraska while all this occurs.

    Rockets win, 89-56.

    Rockets 83
    Hawks 72

    They'll start off slow and open it up inthe second half.

    Yao: 17
    T-Mac: 25
    JJ: 7
    Mo: 8
    Padgett: 6
    Boki: goose egg
    Lue: 3
    Ward: 7
    Howard: 6
    Deke: 2
    Bowen: 2

    We'll have 17 Turnovers

    Of course I'll probably be wrong and well win by 20.

    Yao will never live in Nebraska and badminton match requires more energy than 48 min basketball.

    If the rockets do not win, something is wrong with this team.

    Yao and McGrady need to dominate together, with JJ, Deke, Boki, Lue, Ward and friends plugging in the holes. Everybody has their role.

    I'd like to see Boki get more opportunities at defending (whether he's guarding a swingman, power forward at center) to help relieve JJ. I think benching Boki undermines his confidence and hinders his ability to fluorish as a basketball player.

    JVG's tactic of using Bowen instead of Boki worked but I also think keep him on the bench will decrease his confidence level.

    Rockets tear them up. Yao and Tmac will BOTH have a break out game.

    111- 89
