    Ok it might be a little early for a must win but this game is really needed. We are playing the Suns at America West ( TOUGH PLACE) Yes Penny and Gugs are out but the suns still got alot of talent. Shawn Marion is the leading scorer with 21. Kidd could easily have triple doubles everynight.

    Bad News is that Mr. MARIO ELIE is now on the suns and he has kicked the rockets ass everytime.


    The Key to winning tonight is BALL MOVEMENT and getting an early lead.

    Rockets got lakers and portland next week. And only way to win against them is by having a one night miracle.


    GO ROCKETS , LETS TANK IT BABY!! Argg.. Thats too early in the year to say. [​IMG]

    F3,
    Totally agree - early intensity and ball movement are an absolute necessity. Otherwise, it's no contest or end game iso's on the road. Neither is a good scenario.

    I think it's a little early for Lottery visions. A confidence building win vs. the Suns and a split with the Faker$ & FailBlazers gets the Rocks to 3-3. Otherwise, it could be a depressing 1-5.

    It's odd that the Rocks could be a WC Lottery team but a top 4 or 5 PO team in the East.
