    What is it with the Sixers being turning points for the Rockets this season? After the Knicks loss it looks like it's heading that way again regardless of outcome...

    The Rockets have struggled against the Sixers lately. Hopefully, they will win this game and start a long winning streak.

    Artest is likely out 'til after the All Star game, not such a bad thing really.

    go through yao as usual.

    tracy will play better. i actually thought he played pretty good v. the knicks until the last 5 shots. he can only get better with more games under his belt. HE TRIED TO DUNK IN TRAFFIC in that game.

    Because he kinda has to force some jumpers in the 4th. Maybe not had to, but we all know T-Mac

    But he showed ion the 3rd, how good he can be.

    I think, if Yao plays, we'll come out with a win. Hopefully. The game will be close, and I predict a near choke at the end, only to have Von Wafer pull us out of the ground with a clutch three-pointer. One that could've been made Monday.


    Rockets: 101
    76ers: 97

    Love your attitude....If the team starts developing a "here we go again", point the finger, negative attitude like alot of the fans on the board are, we're in big trouble. They just need to come out and play with alot of energy, play great defense, and get the ball to Yao where he can score it.

    Just win baby.

    Yao dunks it 100 times, snares at T-Mac and Artest,
    T-Mac drives,
    Artest steals,
    We win.

    Most likely, yes. I wonder what line-up it will be. Adelman is going nuts. I wouldn't blame him for the bad decisions, he's frustrated already. T-Mac, last chance to prove yourself.

    man, when von wafer was starting, i was genuinely excited to watch rockets games because he always played well.

    but now, i'm reverting back to the "i dont care" mode. i can't get excited with watching this team unless von wafer plays 30+ minutes.


    this game will be decided on how well t-mac and artest shoot.
