    Team work

    Play like a team is the only way the rockets can beat any elite teams.

    With the awful loss to the Mavs, this game takes on added significance. You don't want to lose two games in a row against your division rivals.

    Agreed. This game is gonna need another monster game by D12 while Lin can keep his TO's down and hopefully hold TP to at least his season average.

    Need to push the tempo on these old ass Spurs. No more walking the ball up and letting San Antonio set up a half court defense on us.

    Lin showcases his skills for possible trade in feb. asik is a no show. Dh is going to be monster, 25 PTs 18 boards. Jh gets his forearms hacked too many time causing more damage to it, but he'll score another 8 PTs from the foul line. Greg pop too good of a coach, we lose.

    99.9% sure Harden is good to go. There's no way he's gonna miss this game. Thank God.

    The Spurs will activate Lin's and Harden's predator mode tonight.

    It's really nice as Rockets fan to be able to watch them on Christmas. Last year vs the Bulls we really played well. Rockets vs Spurs is arguably the best game on today. Harden usually plays very well vs San Antonio. I think Dwight will dominate once again, especially because it's on national TV.

    Rockets: 107
    Spurs: 99

    Lin needs to attack Parker because you will never stop him on offense, but if you get him into foul trouble, that might slow him and take him out of the game.parker thrives off of getting aggressive and attacking his opponents, but if you return the same treatment, that might slow him on offense.

    Duncan will be Duncan he'll get his 15 and 10 but the problem for us is not allowing Rambo and Green to get hot from the three point line.Belleneli killed us in the last game up there but we kept Green in check.

    If Parker lit up Lin like he did against Bev, the Rockets have a good chance. Take out all the Spurs and make Parker beat us.

    Parker took 28 shots for 28 points. That's hardly lighting Bev up.

    If the Rockets can keep SA 3-point shooting under control (Belinelli and Green), it will be an easy win. In other words, if Belinelli and Green make together less than 20 points, the Rockets win.

    Parsons is the real key. When we established that mammoth lead in San Antonio Parsons was on fire and he got cold in the second half and they cameback .

    The Spurs is more balanced Team but we have a good chance:

    Jeremy Lin vs Tony Parker:

    [​IMG]

    An aggressive Lin will challenge Parker!

    Tim Duncan vs Dwight Howard:

    My man Harden at work:

    Naturally with CP25:

    TJones is stepping up big time:

    We win 112-105!
    Merry Christmas, Everyone!

    Parsons moves without the ball so he will be harder to guard than a iso player
