    Interesting but random fact.. The Rockets have only won by 10+ in 9 of their 31 wins. 3 of those were against the Lakers and 2 of those 3 were by 20+. Also, those 2 20+ point wins against the Lakers are the only 20+ point wins all year.

    Long story short, last year I would expect the Rockets to beat a team like the 76ers by at least 20.. This year, I'm scared that they might lose by 10+ and I will be very ticked off to say the least.. I hope the Rockets win this game handedly.. :mad:

    are we really going to act like the Rockets aren't going to get down by at least double digits again? They do it every game. Get down double digits, then make a comeback. Sometimes it's good enough to win, other times it's not.

    We really should rest JH in games like these. Our bench should have zero problems closing out games like these.

    Last thing we knew on Goudelock is that FIBA hadn't cleared him yet.

    This will be an unnecessarily close game, the Rockets are very capable of losing this one.

    I'm not sure the NBA allows smokin' weed on the bench.

    If the Blazers lose the 6th seed gets even closer

    A rematch with the Clippers or against the OKC is much better than SAS/GSW in the 1st
