    Both teams are at full strength. I think we're the favorites to win this. Should be a close match.

    You think we are favorites to win it? I have confidence that we can win but I don't think we are favorites at all.

    Spurs are looking good tonight. Their commentators made a point of bringing up the fact that the Spurs' average age is 27, which dispels the "Spurs are old" mantra that a lot of people believe. Granted, Duncan, Manu, and Parker are the core and they are older, but the Spurs have scored 96 points in just 3 qtrs. against the Clippers right now.

    Manu was single-handedly dismantling the Clips in the first half, too. He's still really dangerous.

    Also, Rockets win 99-92. K-Mart removes his thumb from his ass and scores 27 on ten field goal attempts.

    This one is going to be ugly. The Spurs are in mid-season form.

    Hoping for our first W and hoping Twill puts on another dunk show against the Spurs, but this time here at home in the Toyota Center.

    The Spurs do look good but this will be their third game in four nights.

    This place will be unreadable if we lose. That's one thing that never changes after a loss in the GARM.

    Rockets will win albeit closely. KMart to light up and score 30 points

    Sorry, spurs win easily. I feel sorry for my rockets this year. They can't play any defense. Lotto balls here we come. Folks we're in trouble.

    We don't have an answer for Manu...I see a Spurs win because of it.
