    A game we should and will win. A bad team like Portland will get frustrated and press just like the Bulls did the other night. Unless NVE or Stoud get unbelievably hot, Rox should cruise the whole way.

    We actually need this win to keep pace with the Grizzlies.

    The key of the game is to stop the penetration and outside shooting of Damon Stoudamire and Van Excel

    They have been hot for a while since Nick insertion to the starting lineup

    Our guards have to do a better job closing out on the shooters.

    Look for Van Gundy to play Andre Barret more minutes to neutralize the quickness of the Blazers guards

    Another matchup will be Howard and Randolph. Zach is a beast in the post and excellent offensive rebounder.....We need to keep him out of the paint

    Meanwhile, Patterson should get the assignment of shutting down TMac. Also, Blazers have a lot of big bodies to throw at Yao Ming.

    Should be an interesting game

    I hope Nick the quick doesnt try to light us up like PJ did so he will look better as a guy that CD would want to trade for... I think if we can keep a lid on Nick we will win.. I wanna see Tracy get over 40 to make the Toybox happy and get more asses in the seats...

    LET GO ROCKETS!!!

    All 7 and we'll watch them fall
    They stand in the way of love
    And we will smoke them all
    With an intellect and a savoir-faire
    No one in the whole universe
    Will ever compare

    Blazers are teetering on the edge of freefall, a hodge-podge collection of malcontents, nutjobs and craddle-robbers.

    Rockets 106
    Blazers 82.

    you know the Rox win 100% when someone buys me a flight to Houston and provides me a few seats in the luxury box for myself and friends.

    works everytime!

    maybe we should take up a collection to make sure I can afford all the games. =P

    anyways back onto the topic.

    Bad day for Western Conference teams as SA loses to Miami.
    Lakers lose to Cleveland
    Minnesota drops one with the Bulls
    Denver/Memphis are on their to losing to Eastern Teams.

    He's on the bench. B. Worrell said he'd be starting if he were coach, but apparently not w/ Cheeks.

    The passing, the unselfishness, the thinking out on the floor ... they are just such a better team than last year. Who would have thought they'd be playing like this after the first 10 games or so? They win with offense on some nights, defense other nights... they're really growing.

    And if Howard keeps on rebounding like this, we have a team to be reckoned with.
