    Thankfully the Rockets only have 3 games over the next 8 days and they're all at home. So they should hopefully be able to win all 3 and get these banged-up players back into the rotation by the time they hit Portland next Thursday.

    Except Lin is the only one willing and able to pass DMo the ball. The same can't be said of the other 3 guards.

    If Rockets start off fast in the first quarter this will be a easy win.

    where did Lin come into the picture again? trolling much? And i disagree, Lin can play in this league as a starter. Beverley hasn't shown that he is a legitimate Starting PG

    DMo's hardly had enough burn for anything to be said of who's giving him the ball and whos' not. I agree he's a monster in the post, and a challenge for any big forward to stay infront of. But he's a foul machine and a weak overall defender of big men.

    Honestly he'd probably fair better defending Lebron than he would Zach Randolph, Dwight Howard, etc.

    I think our attitude is key here. Being at home helps that. But don't anyone forget these guys took 3 out of 4 from us last year. Not a squad to overlook.

    Agreed. Kindly requestion Jermaine O'Feel's reaction face after that 1 out of 4 we took from them.

    I don't know what you mean by able... Do you mean they can't...??? Because Brooks is probably the best player on the team at passing the ball down in the post (or at least he has the most experience in it). Guess you never seen him and Yao...

    You can't blame Howard's inability to consistently get position to make himself available for the ball on the guards... And if he's not right up under the basket _ it's kinda useless to pass it to him anyway...

    Plus Fry has been looking pretty good... And Goran will probably hit his old arena with fire in his eyes and don't sleep on Gerald Green getting a chance to play at home in front of his family...

    I agree but also last year's squad has Luis Scola making the Rockets his b**** in all those games.

    Planning to hold Dragic to 10 points and 5 assists is like planning to hold Phoenix to 75 points. It can be done, but it isn't likely no matter how well you play defense.

    The Suns shoot the 3s fairly well, we better not get caught on ball-watching too much tonight. At least I know Haren will!

    It reads willing and able.
    Harden can pass but I am quite sure he won't trust DMo's efficiency.
    Beverley may be willing to pass to DMo but passing is simply not his strength.
    Brooks can pass but he was willing to pass only because it was Yao, the better option over himself.

    Didn't Dudley last year just tear us apart?
