    Grizz frontcourt is intimidating and I'm glad we're getting Pat back. Hope he picks up where he left off from last season.

    2 crucial aspects we have to control, ZBo and Gay, if we can limit these 2 guys into having normal games, we win, thing is, I think one of the two (if not both) will explode because we have no defensive weapons like a Hayes or Battier.

    And after that, we have to rebound the ball, we can´t go small in this game, we will get burned on the boards

    A very different competition......They have their offense going with Randolph and partly Gasol clogging up the paint and rebounding en masse and Gay dealing and wheeling ...very good front court with high offensive rebounding numbers...... Gay 10 rbs Randolph 12rbs and Gasol 12 rbs

    Weaknesses: Shooting beyond the arc...........transition defense due to foot speed of the bigs........and nobody could stop Kevin Martin so far.....I added
    They had to replace Conley with Pargo...
    so I would say attack the rook Jeremy Pargo......and that I think KyleLow7 will do :)

    Play decent D on Randolph and Gasol, and Kyle Lowry and Kevin Martin will take care of the rest.

    League pass for the two 4:00 PST games are down due to "technical difficulties". I will be a mad Rockets fan if they don't fix it in 1 hour.

    For me the Rockets roster officially kicks off tonight as Patterson enters the rotation. Dare I say budding star? I think he's going to be very big this year.

    Wish they would inactivate Flynn instead of Thabeet.
