    cause I dont have the capability to do that...

    besides...there aint no quicker way to have the NBA down your back than if you do a streaming broadcast of their property.

    I agree, I can't watch the games if I know the outcome. It just ain't right.

    I dont know.....call me crazy...but if I lived out of Houston....I would want to see them all...irregardless of whether or not I knew the score.

    I would especially like it if half the people(that dont see the games) here who run their mouths b****ing about the team would actually watch the game before b****ing....

    I see it happen all the time where people will complain about something based on box scores when if you had watched the game..you could see how it actually went down.

    just apet peeve of mine.

    Are you asking for an Audio Link? If so then try the game threads, there is usually one in there. No Hornets link though.

    I did watch one full game that was being replayed. When I was in FW I only got to see a couple of games the entire season. So when some one posted a link to one of the Laker Rox games online I clicked and watched it. It was about an hour old, which was pretty recent. The only thing about it was that it was in Chinese (a chinese tv station). Oh well, I am just babbling now.

    Guess you are right R2K, when you have no chance of watching the Rockets, replays are better than nothing, but when it's a loss....I can't ever watch the replay.

    We need to take the next 3 without difficulty.

    Mashburn is out again for the Hornets.

    Memphis have eaten us alive, we MUST show them who's boss. They are without Lorenzen Wright, and have Swift/Tsakilidis playing C for them.

    Phoenix are Phoenix. JJ will do a decent job on Marion, and if Mobley can take care of Joe Johnson, then let Amare do whatever the hell he wants.

    Those 3 should be easily winnable for a team trying to make the playoffs for the first time in 4 years. If they really want it, those 3 are a must.


    The next one is on the road against Golden State, but also very winnable. The closest thing they have to a PG right now is Mike Dunleavy, followed by Calbert Cheaney. We SHOULD win assuming Mobley can control J-Rich.


    My prediction: 4-0 in these games, Francis breaks out of slump, Yao draws enough attention so that the entire team sees space they've never seen before. Mobley will be the x-factor, specifically his defense.


    As for the Kings game, as usual, I don't expect a win, just expect to look respecteable. That's all I'd ask for.


    4-1 is easy to achieve, and we NEED it if we're going to lock up 7th before March.

    Correction: Not before March, but before the last 16 games.

    I was just kidding when I asked for live video feeds. I know it is not possible
    I even wonder how long the NBA will take before cracking down on BT links
    I agree with your point about people complaining without seeing the game, so that's why I rarely post on this forum about game action, haha....
    good thing that the Rockets are being nationally televised so much this season tho, all the out of town Rockets fans are Lovin' It
