    Right on! Imagine if T-Mac shoots 100% beyond the arc in his contract season.

    Rockets will lose this one because of watching too much of TMAC drama.

    I'm feeling a bit uneasy about this one...Hopefully the Rockets pull it out and give everyone a good Friday.

    Rockets will be ready for this one. Since the Hawks are flavor of the month with the media TNT ESPN the Rockets will shock them tonight.

    Solid solid. I too think C-Bud would have a good game tonight, considering our rotation of "whos going home with the game ball". Anybody at anytime can have a stellar night and it's time for Chase to get back into the groove.

    how would this look in your sig:

    I'm a die hard rockets fan but tonight I think the Hawks have too much fire power with joe, mike, josh, j. crawford (off bench) and m. williams (can drop 20 on any given night). Looking at the Hawks roster and record scares me and I finally think the front office in Atlanta got it right.

    Going to game tonight! Woohoo. hopefully we can keep it competitive. I'm hoping we'll have some luck going small and running with them, cuz I don't believe in mike bibby, but I don't think this ones going to be pretty.

    I think it's going to be a Hawks blowout. If the Rox do pull this one out they just made me a believer they're a playoff team and not a .500 ball club.

    i am worried about this game. according to our l-w-l-w-l-w-l pattern this year, we'd lose tonight.

    This game will be unequivocally tough...for us to pull out a win in Atlanta, our outside shots have to fall. Look for big games from Brooks and C-Bud or Atlanta wins.

    I think one advantage we still have is the element of being underestimated. I feel that teams are still uncertain of this Rockets group and will be more prone to slacking off due to our "stat sheet" and what it says about the individual players on paper. I think it will take the league one go-around with the Rockets before we are taken seriously as a legitimate contender (i.e. mid-playoff team: one that can beat anyone on any given night) despite our quick and somewhat surprising start.

    Also, I'm hoping C-Bud gets more of Battier's minutes; but again, our winning will all depend on that outside shot and the 3's falling. We can count on a good rebounding effort and some paint points just from sheer will exerted by Scola, Landry, Lowry and maybe even DA (With something to prove).

    Looking forward to a good game!

    I really don't see a chance for the Rockets to win, but if they even want a shot at it, everyone will have to crash the boards. Hawks are very tall and athletic. We have to rebound every ball and limit them to one attempt per shot. If the Rockets can do this, then they might just have a chance.

    The Rockets will play hard but I think this is a horrible matchup for us...
