    Am I the only one worried about the outcome of the next two games. This current team seems to always do horrible against the garbage teams. With Chicago and Memphis being at or near the bottom, should we expect to be blown out?

    I hope not.

    BTW Sorry about more negativity in the bbs, but we seriously do play like garbage against teams with bad records. :(

    Unlike everyone, am not all that disappointed about the last three loses, since they came to very good teams, which is always better than losing games that we "MUST" win.

    Now the next two games ARE "MUST" wins. and i expect the Rockets to finally wake up.....it's about time we beat time we beat up those crappy teams!!!! :mad:

    when was the last time the Rox had a blow-out game??

    We shall beat them! I am absolutely positive that we are going to win the next 2 games. :)

    Who ever said we were going to be able to beat SAN ANTONIO AT THEIR HOME...Who said we had a chance against the MAVERICKS AT THEIR HOME? They both have one of the best home records in the NBA. We could have won though...disappointing. And that Pistons game...the Pistons are one of the top 5 teams in the NBA.

    The disappointing thing isn't that they lost, it's HOW they lost. The Rockets have looked terrible in their losses. If the Rocket's played well but the other team played better, than there would be a lot less complaints.

    Hopefully we look better against the Mavs on ESPN this Wednesday. Everyone watch the Super Bowl!

    Well, if you are serious...the Tampa Bay Buccaneers vs. Oakland Raiders.

    AND IT'S NOT JUST THE GAME. IT'S THE COMMERCIALS!!! Yao is going to debut another commercial!!! And Michael Jordan has a commercial too!

    I would rather watch the Super Bowl than the Rockets vs. Bulls. But the Rockets game is at 12 anyway.

    Exactly. We have to beat Memphis and Chicago on the road. They are actually decent home teams Chicago is 14-7 and Memphis is 10-11. If they don't then a long losing streak is coming, especially with Dallas Wednesday night that could be 5 in a row.

    I think the last blowout was against Milwaukee 105-80 Dec 31st and the other was against Philly 97-72 on Dec 7th.

    We were beaten by Detroit yesterday with a point differetial of 24.

    Detroit was beaten by San Antonio today by a point differential of 34.

    San Antonio was beaten by Memphis on Wednesday by a point differential of 5.

    Could someone do the math, how much we shall lose to Memphis?

    Loss.

    Loss.

    The Rockets have been known for "playing down to the competition."

    The Bull and Grizz are hungry! They have a lot to prove. The Rockets think they can just show up and the other teams will kiss their asses.

    Get ready for two more loses.


    P.S. The Grizz are well disciplined. Are the Rockets?
