    Again, a must win. Home opener, who wants to lose on their home opening night?

    LET'S GO ROCKETS.... 2-1!

    No Brewer and no Ennis and we win by 15+. Some Brewer or Ennis and we have another nail biter.

    What's MDA gonna do?

    Was going to say this. He has earned his keep at this point. He provides everything we have been missing with our other role players.

    Also, kicking a dead horse.. We either really could use a PG or could really use Beasley at this point..

    If Bev is unable to get healthy, we are not equipped to defend any of the elite PGs in the NBA. D'Angello Russell and Deron Williams looked like they could really give us trouble. We will be a train wreck when we face any number of team with explosive scoring PGs.

    Another Rockets win. If Dirk plays, Ryan Anderson will go off.

    Ariza, a 1st round pick and maybe Patrick Beverley.

    Why? The Kings have no leverage. Rudy is leaving Sacramento either way. They're not going to get two starters on friendly contracts and a first round draft pick. That's bad GMing.

    That would be a fantastic trade for the Rockets. Gay can help us immediately and we removed Ariza and Beverley's contract from our book which allows us to go after a max player next summer.

    just get the win. Home wins are vital early on due to the away schedule

    It was reported as an "illness". He already returned to practice and is expected to play.

    Mavs will adjust. Unlike our previous coaches, will we adjust to their adjustments....

    I predict a blowout!!!

    We will shoot better this game and I don't expect that ISO ball to work all game long.

    Our defense is so much improved this year. Even against the Lakers they were just hitting shots in ISO ball after we took their initial play away.
