    Well they are coming off a win against the Kings so they cant be as bad as last time. I just dont know if we can win without TMac. We need him cuz he handles the ball so much and well.

    With Mac being out....it puts some of our players in positions which they arent so good at. i.e. Shane trying to create, shoot off the dribble, etc. Rafer and Shane better show up or we will be down by 20+ again.

    we should win this game..we have to...if we can't beat GS without Jrich, we haven't gotten any better since last year or learned anything from last year...Battier was supposed to help out if Yao or Tmac went down so this is his chance..thats why we brought in Bonzi..if we can't beat these scrubs, I would be very disappointed...
    Rockets win
    98-86

    I don't know why people are wildly optimistic about this game.

    GSW is a fast running and shooting team, when they are on home court, they are very decent.

    Rockets lose by 4.

    Yao explodes with 38 pts and 15 rbs along with 4 block shots. Luther takes TMac's scoring duty and drops in 20 again.

    While the absence of T-Mac will have an impact on the team's morale, rockets are mentally tough enough to cope with his absent. I am looking for players like Head, V-Span and Lucas to step up and fill the void left by t-mac. Yao MUST dominate tonight in order for the rockets to win. Final Score: Rockets 82 - 78 Warriors. Yao Ming - 33 pts, 8 rebs and 2 blks.

    Yao always has his way with the Warriors. Good game for Yao. Close one. But the Rockets win.

    98-92

    Go Rockets.

    This is going to be an intereting game because of the match-up options.

    The Warriors can go small & fast with Biedrins at 5, which will make their interior vulnerable since Yao is too strong for Biedrins to handle, this was evident in the early part of the previous match, where Yao was dominating on offense.

    The Warriors can also go big with Foyle at 5, which will reduce Yao's effectiness, this was evident in the later part of the last game, where Yao couldn't get inside to score over Foyle. Of course, this is not what Warriors really like because Foyle is not a Nellie kind of player, he has little or none offense at all, it's tough for a run & gun team, such as the Warriors, to play with a player like Foyle on the court

    Both teams have injuried starters in TMac & Richardson, so neither can use that as an excuse. It's defensive team vs offensive team, and the defense won the first round.

    Ha, Not going to win.
    GSW beat Spur, Mav, Nok, Jazz, Det in their home court this year. So besides Rockets play exceptionally well, a definite loss by 10+ pts.

    Last time, just a week ago, we blowed out them badly at home. This time would be more close scores at their home, but we must have a win to prove Rox is a good team.

    100:95 for Rox.

    I'D LIKE TO SEE THAT SECOND SQUAD COME IN BEFORE WE'RE DOWN BY TWENTY TO SEE WHAT THEY CAN DO. IT SEEMED LIKE THE STARTERS WERE LOST WITHOUT T-MAC HANDLING THE BALL IN THE THIRD QUARTER. THE SHOCK TROOPS DIDN'T HAVE ANY HESITATION, THEY JUST CAME DOWN RAN THE PLAY AND LET THE THREE POINTERS FLY IT WAS BEAUTIFUL TO WATCH EVEN THOUGH IT WAS A LOSS. I ACTUALLY THINK THIS SHOULD BE A PRETTY EASY WIN FOR US THE WARRIORS DON'T HAVE ANY OF THE THINGS THAT GIVE US PROBLEMS (ATHLETIC BIGS, TALL GUARDS, ECT) AND THEIR DEFENSE SUCKS DIZZLE.

    ROX: 102
    WAR: 88
