    First for the first time!!!

    WOOOAH

    I hope the rockets can turn up the heat and keep it going.
    Francis better look to pass more and keep the TO's down. I really liked his play in the ASG, too bad it wasnt a Season game. He handed out 9 asists which is more than any other rocket has ever done in an ASG.


    GO ROCKETS>...

    ROcks: 94
    Jazz: 91

    This will probably be a frustrating game where it seems that there is no chance for the rockets to win this one, when all of a sudden a few missed shots by the Jazz, and made shots for the rockets...including a miracle 3, they are back in it. ...Man. Which I could see this one. Well. 5 more days and then the Laker game. That one I can see.

    following two lackluster performances, the back and forth rockets once again show us how talented a team they can be when called out in front of a nation. The question is how long can it hold up? What's more, can they do it on two consecutive nights to this cagey veteran team?

    tune in

    Stop John Stockton. And we shall win.

    Steve Francis is probably more athletic than John Stockton currently. But John Stockton may outsmart him.

    Cuttino Mobley just shouldn't fall off of Calbert Cheaney or whoever. He needs to stay on him and not allow him to get open because he can shoot. That's all he can do. But he does it well like his entire team.

    Matt Harping...just don't let him get open either. Posey will hopefully help on defense but do not let him get to wide open. He is another good shooter and strong too. I hope Posey can do a good job and make him tired. Probably won't be...good luck Posey!

    Eddie Griffin...please do not let the old guy abuse you again. Karl Malone will score more than 4 points. Just don't let him score above 30 points. We shall be fine.

    Greg Ostertag. Please Yao. Do good.

    Get Yao Ming involved in the game and we should win this game! We better win this one at home because we don't have a chance the next day. Utah will beat us the 2nd time. Their coach is too smart. He'll come up with some special strategy. WE MUST WIN TOMORROW.

    Pedro huh..:p


    I really hope the rockets can stay in this one. It is the home game, I hope for a win at home, and then...well. Ofcourse a win on the road, but that would be hard. THe rocks better win this oen at home.

    THird, next time though.


    I have a feeling the rocks will win one of these. (no brainer)...I hope.

    I would rather have the rocks lose this home game than the one in Jazzland. THe rocks lose the home game close but blow out the jazz the next night. This would hopefully make the rockets feel moer confident with the away games.....

    THOUGH...If I had my way, the Rockets would win both!


    Crap...sorry. I was trying to type this post over my other one. I didnt mean to start a new one...

    Yes....worse thing possible could be US LOSING BOTH OF THE GAMES. WE BETTER AS HECK NOT. It'll be like our last game with the old guys. We have to beat them one more time at least.

    AND ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE.

    Yes.

    That is a true quote.

    Plenty of proof...like Rockets losing to Cavaliers. How was that possible?

    Well anything is possible.

    I just hope we don't get outcoached...:( Or outsmarted or veteran whooped or tricked. Or all that sneaky sly stuff. We need to CONTROL THE GAME. Not the old guys.

    WHAT HAPPENED TO GLEN RICE?

    If the electricity and lighting in Compaq Centre work fine, then Rox will win this one. :)

    Sadly, I'm not too optimistic about this game. After the Cavs game I think the Rox will get whipped by the fossils.

    As I said earlier, if the Rockets lose both games to Utah, I am packing my bags and moving back to Australia.

    The Rockets will win tomorrow, but I won't feel truly happy unless they find a way to win in Utah as well. Since there is no chance in bloody buggering hell of that happening, it is going to be a miserable two days.

    I say Rockets fall, Jazz knows how to disrupt the offense. Sooner or later, Francis and Mobley will lose composure and start going AND1 iso mode again.

    Rockets 81
    Jazz 89

    Everyone would love to see the Rockets beat the Jazz twice but even if they win at home it will better than not winning any.
    I don't know what to expect from our guys. Things aren't looking good right now unfortunately. They have to work very hard on both ends and play smart to have any chance against them.

    Expect to lose the next two games and see a lot of bashing threads floating around in the next couple of days. Will be overtaken by Lakers by the end of the week.

    I am sure they know how to disrupt the rockets only offense, which is through Yao. The Twolves should how to stop it. Double and triple team yao so he cant dish any pass to the cutting guards and so he cant shoot. that will beat the rockets.
