    It's not going to be easy. Brand has been unstoppable this season. He's taken his game to a whole other level. Sam has been tricky for all PG's trying to defend him this year. Kaman is looking more aggressive on both sides of the floor and actually stays out of foul trouble now.

    If Maggette plays, I'm going to consider this a loss due to all our injuries. :(

    Gotta win this game to show we are for real. This will be the real test. It should be a close game, closed out in the final minutes.

    Rockets by 6.

    Triple OT thriller and Rockets prevails on a TMac desperate 3 that goes in as the time expires.

    On Sunday the Rockets are so tired that they are blown out of the gym by the Lakers.

    Rockets finish the road trip with a remarkable 5-1 record and everyone is happy.

    No way, I am not happy unless they win 10 in a row at least. :mad:

    We always play well against the Clippers so this should be another win for us. They're not as good as what their record indicate, plus they just lost 3 in a row.

    wesley will do a good job on cassell who isn't fast and doesn't look to penetrate.

    brand is unstoppable but so is tmac. hopefully they don't front yao so he can have nother great game. if they do it will be a very close game, much like the last two.

    ROX: 96
    clippers: 94

    my prediction record this season: 18-3

    we'll see how unstoppable brand is when we break his kneecaps.
