    If Brooks does well here, then we're in serious consideration of placing Brooks as a starter.

    I support the "rafer is better at running the offense" arguement, but right now Brooks is showing why he is already a starter in some nba teams.

    I'll be more concerned about the next game against Cavs. I mean that's a back-to-back game for us, but not for the Cavs.

    I dont care if we win this one or not. I hope we can beat the Cavs though the back-to-back is a disadvantage.

    Go Rockets.

    Right, if we can only win one game of this back to back games, I would hope Rockets win the game at Cleveland. But I mostly hope we can win both, that may be great :D

    Let's start this tough week off in style with a blowout! Rest the starters late and get ready for Cleveland

    We shouldn't have problems with scoring. Tracy needs to make VC play defense, and Yao is too big and too good for Nets.

    Hopefully we will be able to stop Harris. Battier and Ron on VC, would be interesting

    That's what I hope for,because if we couldn't put 'em away earlier in the game and lead by large margin,we wouldn't be comfy to rest our starters and put our reserves into the game.

    That being said Brooks is a blur,so is Harris I guess.AB has lots of work to do before the game.Hope we could land onto the safe ground and get away with win facing the LeBron,Cleveland.

    Vince will not even guard T-Mac Bobby Simmons will, and hopefully Ron Ron makes Vince Tired cause Ron Ron in the fourth Quarter is not a joke, if youre a superstar would you wanna guard a big ass bull like Artest when Battier has already made you work for everything you got for 3 quarters, now you have to guard a 255 pound Mean man,

    Rockets 105
    Nets 91


    by the way Brooks will hold Harris in check

    My son and I are going to be at the game tonight. Right now he's deciding whether to wear his TMac jersey or his Yao jersey.

    I think the Nets are a dangerous team if they get it going. The key to stopping them is to make them a jumpshooting team. If they can drive and finish or drive and dish, it could be a long night for us.

    This will be a fun game. Two quick guards going at each other. But... we may not want to play a fast pace tempo because tomorrow we have another game.

    Give it to Yao early. See if you can get a blowout...

    Haha, im excited as well, I really doubt Tmac or Vince will guard each other but Harris and Brooks should be a good matchup

    Go Rockets!
