    Underestimating is in our blood. However, this game does not seem much of an obstacle. Defense is the key.

    Win or lose?

    Of course I prefer a win; but a loss due to playing with no heart and intensity would be disguesting.

    If you fought hard and still lost, you lost with dignity and walk out of the court with pride and your mental would grow stronger for the next game. That's the right path for Rox players, especially young players.

    Go Rox.

    if butler is out, then the Rox should sit Ron, TMac, and Shane. they're all unhealthy. and if we have the game in hand, limit Yao's minutes too

    We will need everyone that is healthy in order to win. They might not be needed for very long minutes unlike the Jazz but we saw how difficult it was to win against them even though we are without Okur,Boozer and Milsap.
    We can't underestimate anyone.

    Now a day, it seem there is no an easy game any more. Even Wizards coming with worst records, anything can happen. Especialy to Rockets which always play up and down.. Rockets just need to be consistents and win...

    I will be at this game in the worst seats in the house, throwing stuff at the Red Rowdies. I'm gonna call it:

    Rockets- 106
    Wizards- 86

    should be a win, but not exactly sure -- we assumed that before, but the real game was hard.

    Will McGrady and Artest ever play together in a long time? Im gonna be real frustrated if Artest plays a certain game, and McGrady plays the other one. We need to build some chemistry.

    This is exactly my point of view: even if the Rocket's record was not as good as it is, but they played EVERY game with heart and intensity, I would be more excited about this team than I am. Nothing is more demotivating to sports fans than players who look disinterested, like they are going through the motions.

    If TMac is out, we have a chance. If he plays and dominates the ball and is lazy, we'll get embarassed.
