    We will win. We must win.

    We can't afford 5 losing streaks. :mad:

    Four streak wins and we believe Rockets can beat anybody.

    Then comes four streak loss and we believe Rockets can not beat anybody.

    Here's my prediction. If Rockets lose this one, Rockets will lose three straight, which will give us a season high 7 streak losses.

    If Rockets can somehow miraculously win this one, Rockets will have a 2-1 record in the next three games.

    we're gonna win 435 to 8 probably.

    i'm sick of predicting losses.

    i probably won't even be in chat (oh i know how y'all will miss me in there) just cuz i wanna watch the game only. of course i said i wasn't gonna look at this board for a while after today's game and i have like 3 posts in 10 minutes so i'll probably be in chat (what the hell else am i gonna do?). these 4 games have been so damn frustrating after the previous 10 (where we won 8). ahhhhhhhhhhh. do anything on offense differently please. give it to ming more, but only if he'll be aggressive like today in the 4th. just like people wanna bench steve and cat for not passing, tell ming he doesn't get the ball (actually tell him only steve and cat are allowed to pass it to him, it'll be the same thing) if he doesn't take it in aggressively like he was doing to marshall in the 4th. for the love of all that is holy just please win.

    Wait a minute. What did you just say? our dumb ass guards??
    WOW!!! :eek: :eek:

    I thought you are one of the most supportive guards fans, especially Mobley.

    If a 5-game losing streak can wake up Rudy T and Rockets management to change the current stupid ISO offense, then by all means lose to Memphis, even a blow out. I don't really give a damn.

    The worst scenaro is: Memphis's poor O and Rockets decent D bails out Rockets's stupid O; Francis hits a 3-pointer buzzer-beater to bring the game to OT; Mobley another buzzer-beater to win in OT; Rockets backcourt will think they are god again; Rockets follow a "one-win" streak with a 5-game losing streak...

    I think Memphis has a lot of potential Rocket "killers". Gasol,Person,Gooden,Giricek,Williams,Swift,Wright.
    I don't expect us to win tomorrow.

    :rolleyes: damnit....back a week ago, when i was pestimistic and said oh no...a winning streak....means a losing streak is coming.

    i wish i never said it. That is one thing the rockets are really good at being CONSISTANT at.

    Winning a winning streak against good teams....and then....having a losing streak of equal or great value to horrible teams.


    rocks......PLEASE....for all that is good and sweet......WIN thi GAME!!!....please....


    bulls.....grizz...... :confused:
    please no....:( ....
    then how will we win against dallas in houston?! no payback?! after all the trash talking?! :eek:


    GO ROCKS!!!! PLEASE!!! LET YAOzaa Kick some Griz a$$!!!

    Memphis should come out really motivated. After all, they get our first round draft pick. :)

    I am trying really hard to be supportive of the whole team, but its getting harder and harder. I would not complain one bit if our team actually tried its hardest and lost. If we played our asses off against Pistons and Bulls and still lost I would not complain one iota.

    On the other hand I always boo at home games if the Rockets are showing no effort. And last couple of years I have been booing quite a bit. :(

    Pau Gasol has been a monster lately and I think that he presents a real matchup problem for both Yao and Cato because of his quickness. We may need to start Eddy and put him on Pau.

    Memphis has been playing very well lately. We really need to come out ready in this game or our skid will hit five.

    Let's hope for a Rockets win: Houston 100 -- 95 Memphis
