    Game at home. We win.

    We get that much closer to securing the 3rd seed and our first division title in forever.

    Go Rockets!

    We usually win at home. With a win, we are one-step closer to securing 3rd place and the division title. Hopefully, yao will be back for this one. This potential first round matchup should be a dandy. Final score rox 99 - 94 hornets.

    This is actually a good chance for the Rockets to see what it would be like to play against a decent Playoffs team, without the biggest part of their offense.

    Not that I don't want Yao to come back, but we will actually see what the Rockets are made of in this game.

    Even if Yao is out, we will win this game. The Hornets have looked awful the past few weeks, and the Rockets play with so much poise and confidence at home. There will be no Rasual Butler heroics to bail the Hornets out. Rockets win 95-86.

    Not so sure about this one....need a good game from Artest and Scola. 20 points is hard to make up for.

    If the Rockets play excellent defence, they'll win.



    And CP3 will go off for 30/15/7 on a field day against AB...

    The last time we played the Hornets, we didn't have Yao and still won.

    That was with Shane and Ron combining for 1/15 from downtown. I'm positive we can win again.

    easy win because the hornets are gonna be **** full of themselves and think they deserve every single call while Chris Paul is doing everything and ends up logging 45+ minutes in a losing effort

    If Deke plays as well as he did yesterday, we should win.

    Did you know we were 2-0 with both Yao and t-mac out of the this season?So we have no problem winning this game. :p ;)

    I hope Yao at least play one of the final 2 games though.

    Go Rockets!
