    does anyone knows why do we have a 4-day rest before facing the Lakers?..ha ha ha..not that i'm complaining..it's good..Yao should get enough rest...i was just curious..did they do this on purpose?..but in my opinion they should let the rockets have a 4-day rest AFTER facing the lakers..cuz yall know how tired yao is after facing Shaq last time..it took him a couple of games to redeem himself

    a 4-day rest is too long yao and the team. they get anxious and so pump for the game that when playing in the actual game, they might show up the first quarter and disappear the rest of the game. i know yao will be more tired because of the long rest because his body is not used to having a 4-day rest. guess he has to pace himself in the game.

    Naw a 4 day rest is to compensate for the fact that the Rockets will be doing back to back games on Tuesday and Wednesday. All the off days are just bunched together.

    Wow...It's true, we actually have 4 days off before the Lakers. That's amazing for Yao especially.

    Hopefully, we can beat the Heat early and rest our players even more.

    Actually, it's three days.

    Saturday, Sunday, Monday.

    That's not unusual.
