    Howard usually gets punked by his ex teammates. It will be interesting to see which one of our players really hates his guts and will try to irritate him.

    Rockets 118
    Hawks 104

    Howard blocks Harden's game winner.

    Rockets will win . All they have to do is foul Howard and he will miss free throws that will cost the Hawks the game.

    The way Harden is balling right now I can see him beserk with the added focus on this game. By beserk I mean 45-15-7 type game.Having said that I don't think there was real animosity between the two but it was more so on court clash or clash of styles which compounded the issues. Off the court they probably had no issues.

    Capela will make Dwight obsolete

    Clint Capela is the one who'll have the displeasure of guarding Dwight Howard. I love CC, but I worry about his ability to guard and rebound over someone that strong.

    Let's go with Wiltjer and Anderson at center, trade 12 fouls for 30 wide open 3's.

    This is going to be a tough game. Atlanta can play some good defense. Harden will need to push the pace while on the court.

    PnR Dwight all day. We know he won't switch out.

    A lot of that will also depend on how they call the game. Capela seems to get a lot of bad calls that stars wouldn't get. So many times he has his arms straight up, or is all ball on a block and gets the bad end of the deal. Howard loves to grab and shove around a lot, so it will be interesting to see how this works out. I do love having Capela, Nene, and Harrell though. They all bring different strengths which I like. My only wish is that someone could just teach Capela how to make a free throw. Whatever they are teaching him isn't working, so it's time for granny shots...LOL

    Hopefully it will be Capela, Ryan (former Orlando mates), Trez against Howard
