    Optimistic and hopeful that we'll all be cheerful AFTER the game.

    Need this game to wash out the bad after-taste of the last one.

    Wall is averaging 22/10/5 and we don't have a PG to stop him. I expect him to have a Kyrie type performance at least since his usage will be much higher. Here are the numbers put up by the PGs from the teams who've beat us:

    Russell - 20/3
    Irving - 32/4
    Schroeder - 17/12

    While the Rockets didn't have much trouble against Deron Williams or Derrick Rose.

    I think we'll lose this one. Otto Porter alert (scrub that will go off)

    Revenge game for NeNe. He might go off for 7 points.

    I haven't seen the Wiz but they seem to suck so far. Let's win this one.

    We will beat down teams like Wash this season but lose to all the top teams.

    Nene was a good insurance signing, as a 4th big off the bench but asking him to play anything more than 20 minutes a game at this point in his career is bad for a team's winning percentage.

    I swear I heard Charles say Bradley Beal is better than Harden once last season...

    I'm calling Nene having a good game. He turns up a few times a year.

    The Rockets have struggled against every PG with any type of speed (Russell, Irving, and Schroeder). Wall is definitely in that category.
