    the pg combo of payton/anderson kills us, and brent barry goes off

    and still no taylor or rice and kenny t just getting back we will see to much of the 3 guard lineup

    If you guess this:

    Rockets 100
    Sonics 70

    And the actual result is this

    Rockets 95
    Sonics 75

    Your score would be (100-95) + (75-70) = 10

    And if 10 was the lowest number for the game you would have the best guess and win.

    Need anymore clarification?

    Hey fellas, thought Id check out how good Rocket fans are feeling about the new season. Id say Houston should win being at home and Seattle hasnt lost yet, so theyre kinda due. I'll say Houston 105 Seattle 99, Seattle will allow you to shoot jump shots so Im guessing off the assumption that Franchise and Mobley get 20 shots each, in which case you guys should win. But if you guys cant hit your jumpers Seattle will be out in transition, and incase you havent noticed, that not a good thing for the opposition, could be something like Seattle 110 Rockets 90. Official Prediction, Houston 105-99. Hey, do you guys get to watch the game locally down there? Anyways, have fun!

    Damn, i dont wanna lose my position in the top 3, this will be a tough game to predict.

    Rockets 94
    Sonics 90


    Payton vs. Francis matchup has always been in favor of Payton because of his relentless D. And if Stevie doesnt go, the Rockets dont go. However, Rox are at home and some momentum from their last game. If Francis can outplay Payton, then this is a victory. I think finally he'll take the next step in being a mature player as well as being one ofthe best PGs, plus he's looking like an MVP. This will be his night to prove it.
