    We need a win in a bad way...I think the close losses brought the team closer and will start to put on a run...

    Rox: 95

    Hornets: 91

    The Hornets are a salty, much-improved team, with the likely Rookie of the Year, Chris Paul, and a roster that actually pays attention to what Byron Scott has to say. Hence, they've gone from 18 wins <b>total</b> for last season, to a 15-19 season barely halfway into January.

    Meanwhile, the Rockets are about as snakebit as <a href="http://www.blackbearheaven.com/snake/pig3.jpg">this pig</a>. Their injured list is a pretty damn good team in its own right (TMac, Yao, Swift, Barry, Sura & Anderson). Wesley and Juwan are stepping up big time, however, and Luther just might be turning the corner on the so-called "rookie wall".

    Hornets win, 93-88.

    JVG please put in JL3 in more tonight. He is the only rocket whose speed is somewhat close to Paul and Claxton.

    Yeah he's playing. He returned last night at home against Sacremento who they handled pretty easily. It's going to be tough for the Rockets to win without Anderson, Barry, Yao, and Swift out but we're looking at must wins at home against subpar teams. Rockets have to start winning and it HAS to start tonight.

    Disheartening that when the signing was made, I actually thought a question like this would have some bearing on the result of the game.

    We need to have Stromile in the game in times like this to either give him more confidence or possibly boost his trade value.

    T-mac should not play till Yao is back. It's not wise to rush T-amc back and hurt him again when Yao is back. 1-2 more win in next 2 weeks is not worth to risk that.

    Rockets :115
    Hornets :85

    Does anybody have any updates on whether or not T-Mac is playing tonight, or is it still a game-time decision?
