    I am pretty sure we're going to kick their butts. We're going to play like mad dogs and refuse to lose.

    The Rockets HAVE to win this game.

    We have to try to start a winning streak, this month will be the turning point. Otherwise, it's going to be VERY difficult to even make the Playoffs.

    I smell a win. Yeah, we lost against the much ballyhooed Celtics but only by a few points. The team is starting to gel with more players scoring in double digits. So it's on! It's time! Go Rox!

    I agree, MUST WIN GAME!

    Let's hope that Rick Adelman goes back to starting Bonzi and plays him for 40 plus minutes.

    Let's pray that Rick Adelman STARTS Scola and plays him for over 32 minutes.

    Let's beg that Rick Adelman plays Brooks for at least 24 minutes.

    If we hit the lottery and he does all of this...we should come out with a win! :D

    Gotta get this one. Yao needs to play better after that miserable performance last night.

    After two tough loss, can Rockets hold on? This game will show real color of Rockects. Can they beat a good team? Don't be cheated by the illusion of moral victory. There is no moral victory. A good team not only blows out other teams, more importantly, they win close games. Good teams win the last couple possessions. That the current rockets can't do.

    If Rockets win, I believe that this game will be a turnaround point. The sky is the limit. Otherwise, struggle to make playoff and at best 1st round exit again.

    Yao need to practise more on his shots, preferably with someone holding a protective cushion pushing him hard. I hope he can have a high %FG and grab more rebounds than DH

    This is a winnable game. The team has been making real progress, and Orlando doesn't present the horrific match up problems that GS does and it doesn't have Paul Pierce, Ray Allen and KG. If the Rockets play hard they have a very good chance I think.
