    We matchup well with them in the reg season because they don't really give a flying **** , but even then I think this is a loss.

    Team's play is fool's gold, no way they can perform in the playoffs.

    Brutal, honest truth. Getting exited out of the first again probably.

    Spurs missing three starters! THREE!

    Would be a shame if we don't win.

    I'm no apologist, but I do want to see McHale do well :)

    Go Rockets, let's get this one!

    Spurs just lost to the Heat on national tv so they'll be extra motivated for this one. Meanwhile our team loses by 1 at home then plays with absolutely no effort the next night against the same team.

    I think this is a loss.

    TP has pencilled this game in as a revenge game since he was shutdown last time they played

    We always come out with energy against the Spurs.

    We really need to see it tonight.

    Huge test for us in this back to back. One, can we beat the Spurs...again. Two, can we sustain a margin over the Mavs over the course of the game. Usually, the Mavs go back into the halftime, re-assess and beat us. Carlisle coaches circles around McFail.

    Rockets are going to play physical. Bigs will dominate in the paint, Harden and Lin penetrating at will, and Bev getting at least 3 steals.

    At least, if all the practice pays off.

    Lin shutdown TP last time. Since he's no longer a starter things could be different.

    Rockets are no better now than they were in the first game of the season, unfortunately.

    We can win this, but I'm worried about the lack of development and growth this season as a team.
