    I agree about the Blazers, but I would never want to be that guy who doubts the Spurs. Happens every freakin year.

    Excited to see a healthier team tonight, but this time against a better opponent.

    Not sure if Love is going to play but if he doesn't the Rockets better take care of business early and not keep the Wolves around like they did with the Bucks.

    If Pek and Love are out then Dwight should have his way with Turiaf and Cunningham inside. I am guessing Brewer is going to guard Harden so Parsons should have a good game with Chase guarding him.

    This is awesome. And with Asik back and hopefully buying in, Rockets can only get better. By the end of the regular season, I think Rockets can overtake the Clippers. Rockets have had plenty of injuries, and maybe now with everyone healthy, they can hit their stride.

    a win tonight would get us to 20-14 against the west. That's a respectable number for now and I expect us to build upon that.

    the way his head hit the ground it's surprising the tailbone hurts more

    It would have been alot worse if his head was the first thing making contact with the ground. Since he land butt first, it absorb alot of the initial damage a fall like that could have caused.

    I believe about half of the T-Wolves losses have come by 5 points or less so this is not a team we wanna leave hanging around. We need to shut the door by the end of the 3rd if possible.

    If there is a team that is having the most difficult time winning close games, it would be the Twolves. If you have a choice in which team you want to go wire2wire with, it would be them. They are polar opposites of Portland.

    lol wut... Your logic is backwards... The thing is the Twolves aren't winning close games...so if things are close at the end we should feel confident because they can't close.
