    Usually, I would be up for this if Ming was playing or if it was Hakeem vs. The Admiral. But I'm guessing it's going to be a fight to the end, even if it is a preseason game...:D

    Who is going to this game? I've got tickets in section 115 for this game! I hope I don't get spoiled since my season tickets are in section 223.

    is the game televised? and why does CC.net have the Pacers game listed as the next game and not the Spurs?

    Any ideas on the starting lineup for tonights game? Steve and Kelvin will be out. I'd hate to go to the game and watch Collier start, but it will be fun no matter what. I guess the starting lineup for tonight doesn't matter much, but I'm curious as to what Rudy will put together.

    Moochie/Tito
    Cat
    Glen/KT
    Kenny/MoT
    Collier/Griffin/MoT

    Kevin Willis might have a good laugh or two at our expense tonight.

    Sounds like a great chance to get a good look at the players that are competing for a roster spot!;)

    I’m thinking that Rudy will try to start Griffin in some way. Probably by either putting him at center or moving either KT or Rice out.

    Oh well, I won't be able to watch the game because I have too much home work/studying to do :mad:

    moT will probobly come off the bench tonight. if steve and cato sit this one out i think we are looking at:

    griffin-collier
    kt-Tmo
    rice-boki
    cat-tito-oz
    mooch-tierre

    with most of the PT going to:

    griff
    Tmo
    boki
    os
    tierre

    Damnit, what is more important to you? Watching the Rockets game, or working/studying?

    I think it will be a good game. Some of the key points I am looking for in the game are:
    - Can TMo continue to shine?
    - How will MoT do
    - How Tito plays both guard positons since he will most likely get more time due to Steve's absence
    - AND Can Rice still drain the 3

    I'm still not sure if I will be able to get this game. Probably not since its not coming up on my guide. :( Oh well, as long as the people in the chatroom do their thing, which I appreciate, I'll be ok. Hmm...I wonder if tonight will beat last weeks chatting in weirdness...meow.

    Is Menge Bateer gonna play? Is Manu still hurt? I have picked Sna Antonio to have the best record in the West this year...
    I guess Cato is down with Duncanitis for this game.

    We need to beat the Spurs tonight. If we can, it will prove to them that we are just as good as they are.

    GO ROCKETS! WIN THIS ONE!

    I think we could get away with:

    Mooch v Parker
    Cat v Smith
    Taylor v Duncan
    Rice v Bowen
    KT v Rose

    then:

    Tito/Brown
    Torres/Mickeal
    Collier/EG
    EG/KT/TMo
    Boki/KT/Tmo

    Can't wait... :D

    Ducan will drop 40 on Mo before they even take their warmups off.

    Nice list, that's everything I'm looking for. One thing to add to that list is will Pete Mickeal play and how will he do, and does this mean Collier will get more minutes and how will HE do! Playing Nachbar in this game would also be a nice bonus. The nice thing about having a bench is that it's not like we're throwing together a bunch of scrubs and a patchwork team, there's some talented players out there and they should get some minutes.

    Nope, sadly it is not. I just checked nba.com and they're no listings for it. :(
