    This is going to be a tough game. The Rockets play well against the Eastern teams but the Pacers are a great team this season. Winning at Conseco won't be easy. I am hoping for the best, a Rockets Win.

    They played well last night in Houston beating the Knicks. I hope they can play well on Friday and begin a new Winning Streak.

    The Rockets have been playing great ball as of lately.

    logic would dictate that Indiana's strong defense will shut down the rockets streaky(as of late) offense. I think jermaine oneal's quickness will give yao fits, along with ron artest's tough defense on jj and cat, i think the rockets are going to have a hell of a time scoring tomorrow, as was the case in their previous encounter with indiana's defense.
    this should be an ugly, low scoring affair,
    its a question of who's defense wins out, and seeing as though this is in indiana i'm going to go with indiana,
    82-76 indiana.

    There's a better chance of Dubuyuh being the first man to walk on Mars than there is for the Rockets winning the game tomorrow.

    This will be an all-time low.

    After a five point first quarter, Houston will finish the game in high scoring fashion, but it will be in vain.


    Rockets: 62
    Pacers: 83

    Yao: 2 points on 1-15 shooting, 9 turnovers.
    Francis: 8 points (to lead the team) on 4-25 shooting, one assist, 11 turnovers.

    I'll be amazed if the Rockets win this one. The only way is if Yao and Steve have great games. Let's just hope Yao doesn't have a repeat of his NBA debut in Indiana last season.

    This will be a close one. Lot of physical play. A few technicals will be given out. But the Houston Rockets have arrived and they will pull away in the fourth. Jim Jackson will go off for 30.

    Houston 88
    Indiana 79

    That translate to:
    Rockets: 83
    Pacers: 62

    Yao: 14-15 shooting, 0 turnovers, and have a career high 32 points

    I'm looking forward to seeing Dubuyah's pictures from the Red Planet. I hope he takes a video camera.

    I hope for the best...

    this is going to be a fun game to watch low scoring or not. I haven't really seen the Pacers much this year so I'm looking forward to it. I'll be listening to the game. I wish I could see it.


    If the Rockets can pull this one out then it could be the start of a nice ride.

    I love all the National TV coverage we have this month. It makes the games so exciting.
