This will be tough...I expect us to win...

Rox: 98

TWolves: 95

 

Finally somebody starts making shots.

We win...

92-83

 

It is about time they put up a good effort and dominate the puppies.

 

No doubt about it we have a better team this year. But over the last 3 seasons the Rockets are 1-5 @ Minnesota. I don't know if it's the rims being too tight, the Rockets hating the cold weather, or if they've just been outmatched, but the T-Wolves have dominated us at the Target Center. So do I think the Rockets will win? Yes by 8 points, they have too much talent for the T-wolves to handle, but man, it seems no one give them a chance at all. Huge rockets fan here, but I think too little credit is being given to the t-wolves for the way they've handled the rockets in their own arena.

I've got a good feeling about this one... Yao steps up... TMac jumps up...

TMac - 26 pts, 5 rebs, 5 assists
Yao - 19 pts, 10 rebs, 2 blocks

Rox 98
TWolves 89

(W/L prediction record: 3-3)

 

Tmac - 34points 10rb 8assists 2stls 1block 11/23 fg 2/4 3pt fg 6/7 FT
Yao - 31points 15rb 4blocks 2assists 13/19 fg 5/6FT

WE WIN!




k time to go to class that was a good waste of 5 minutes.

 

And the rest of the team shoots 5-35 from the floor. Minny 99 Rockets 78. Yao is questioned after the game why he cannot make his teammates shoot better from outside.

 

A team that has Mcgrady and Yao will not often go on losing streaks. When they're both healthy, the worst that happens, is a lose one, win one, type deal that causes fans to jump on then jump off just enough times before they're all aboard again for good. It may take awhile, but the wins will start to outweigh the losses and we will be looking at a 50 plus win season again when the season has passed.

Tonight they should win.

 

we need this win, otherwise might be in 2-7 hole again

 

Finally a team who's guards blow as much as ours, Rockets carve out a win and finally play some good perimeter D on a team with Hassel and Jaric starting. Tmac blows up on Sczerbiak and Garnett is forced to waste his energy trying to match up with him.

Rox: 90
Minny: 87

 

It is on CCTV-5.

 

Oh yeah, and Swift will have a monster tea bag dunk on Eddie Griffin.

 

I WISH MoST UNHAPPINESS TO RAIN DOWN UPON THE COLD SOULS OF MINNESOTA TIMBERWOLVES FANS. MAY THE GODS OF BASKETBALL PREVAIL.

P.S. I actually yelled that while I was typing it. My neighbors ****ing love me.

 

Rockets 92
Twolves 87
