    If Texans don't know where Mexico is, then the phrase "Remember the Alamo" has not done what it was suppose to do.

    Instead of Mexico City, why not a friendlier place like New Mexico? They're both Mexico.

    I may be biased as a T-Wolves fan, but I think this has the making of a trap-game for the Rockets. Minny is really deep this year, and pretty solid all around on offense. But not having Rubio really hurts also. I think the Rockets will win, but it will be unnecessarily close.

    I really hate these type of posts. I know it's a joke, but to people like me it's just plain offensive and annoying. Just cause I'm latino it does not mean I'm from Mexico or have anything to do with Mexico. It's just annoying.

    Anyways, I hope Dwight plays or else Pekovic is going to go off for 25+ on us. He'll have his way wit Black and Motiejunas.

    So which is the home team?

    Thread title says Rockets @ Timberwolves which would suggest Minny being the home team but Houston is way closer to Mexico that Minnesota according to my world renowned geography.

    i think we will beat the team so badly that it should consider a change of name.

    how about Minnesota Kitten?:grin:

    Maybe. But I've watched a lot of Rocket basketball and they tend to underperform in match-ups like this. Maybe it is different this year, they have done a good job of blowing out inferior competition so far.

    Minny has a population of 5,000 immigrant workers. While Houston has a population of 2.5 million mexicans. -Bill Walton

    If TJones has dead foot, or nerve issues in the knee that can linger a LONG time.

    I think Minnesota had one of their home games taken away, Jaguars-style. They'll be wearing white in Mexico.
