    They played their top ten guys, we played our top ten guys. Our starters outplayed their starters, our bench unit outplayed their bench unit. Not much room for debate here.

    Pacers will be much more focused into treating this like more than a preseason game. Should be fun if we can secure two wins in a row with our alternating awesome line up of point guards. Also, I wish someone had footage of the dunk Beverley made when he won the slam dunk contest in Russia. That may be a weird note to add in but I'm happy we get to watch the Rockets play again! Woo

    Dying to see Asik back on the floor! I believe we have a real ten-man rotation this year.

    Defeating a bad preseason team doesn't make the Rockets a good team. As good as the Pacers had been, they were a bad preseason team. They weren't playing their signature smash mouth defense because their bench lack chemistry. The Rockets bench sealed the victory by pushing the tempo, annihilating the Pacers' putrid bench defense. You bet these Pacers would look a lot different when the Rockets meet them again in regular season. If the Rockets defeated them again, then we have a very good team.

    We have 4Q, and I would like to see McHale trying out different combination (5in5out) each quater. That would be interesting.

    Comeon this is preseason, if not now, when then?

    Is Greg Smith ok to play? It would be good to see him in action off the bench.
