    There is a line between being a realistic fan, and being a faithless, pessimistic troll... OK, I wouldn't go so far as to call you a troll I guess, but come on: "no chance"? "far inferior"? Get real. Not only are we playing at home, but the Suns really are just not THAT good. We are 17-5 since the Yao injury. We didn't get lucky for 22 games.

    So, Shane and T-Mac are both questionable for the Suns game....

    ... and usually, when the Rockets list someone as questionable... they don't play.

    Whether he plays or not this game against Phoenix is going to be enough to kick us all in the nuts and make us cough. If he doesn't play that kick will just feel harder.

    Sit him and start Harris. The whole team needs to be healthy. That is priority one.

    Also, I think this could be one of those "who is that? who cares." type games for Harris where the Suns are not prepared for his game and he could go off in the first half before they adjust.

    I'm in the 'be careful for what you wish for' camp, myself. Now, if there were a 1 - 16 seeding then I'd perk up plenty.

    Will we win? Maybe not.

    But I wouldn't say we are a "vastly inferior" team to the Suns. We have a better freakin record with one week to go in the season. How are we inferior?

    They have an unstoppable post force and a top 3 PG. Right now those are our biggest weaknesses.

    Chron.com has him out as a starter........don't know if he suits up though.

    I think Scola/Landry/Hayes can pick up his absence
