    DMO is going to dominate and give the doubters something to think about

    We've already garnered surprised attention from the sport's talking heads. If we beat SA tonight, and I think we will, the attention is going to explode.

    I'm going with "DMo will get 3 fouls in the 1st and not have an impact in this game" as my prediction.

    The win tonight won't mean much to the media since the Spurs aren't taking the game serious.

    What is up with Bev..... Why play last game and sit tonight? Did he have a setback?

    This game should be another walk in the park for Houston. Has there ever been a team that went 6-0 to start the season, winning every game by double digits?

    Are people really getting upset because he's resting the starters? Lol grow up. Who cares what he does with his team. Can't knock it. Its clearly helping because they one last year

    I really think that this is just extra rest for Bevs since we aren't facing the Spurs at full power. I'm sure they want Bevs at his best to be able to lock down Curry on saturday.

    Expect a big game from Harden.

    Oh, yes they are. The Spurs will still execute and play with the same passion and discipline. If the Rockets for one moment think this game is won, they will have a shot at losing.

    Hamstrings are a touchy injury. Very day to day. One day he can feel good, others it's a no go. Right now, I think it's precautionary. If it was April, no doubt Beverley will play.

    Kenny: Rockets Surprising start. You lose 3 guys who are starters on other teams. 3 starters but Ariza better than advertised. There is an inside presence and Harden off the charts. ... They've had an easier schedule. We'll see tonight how good this team is.

    Chuck: They should beat this Spurs team tonight.

    Shaq: This is part of Pop's system. Someone will have to step up tonight and they will.
