    The Timberwolves are on a back-to- back. The Rockets should win this one!

    I especially like that quote from Steve that I heard on 610 yesterday. Something like "I don't need to change my game at all to help the team start winning again...I'm just going to keep playing the same why I have always played. I don't need to change."

    Yeah steve...everything is cool with your game. :rolleyes:

    I think the Rockets have a great shot at winning this game. Here's a couple of reasons of why I think so ...

    1st - It's time for the Rockets to win. They have suffered a couple of losses and they SHOULD be very hungry for a win. They can't keep losing forever.

    2nd - This will be the second game of a back to back for the Wolves. In the game against Dallas, KG played about 45 minutes and the entire team spent a ton of energy just to come up short against the Mavs.

    All I can say to Francis and Mobly is... WILL YOU PLEASE PASS THE BALL TO YAO! There is no way Rox going to win this game if Mobley shoots more than Yao. Case closed.

    I agree with you, it was a tough loss for the T'Wolves last night, hopefully they'll come out flat. I just hope the Rockets can take advantage and not play down to that level.

    Maybe Cuttino, Mo, Moochie, and TMo will all have huge games, KG will suck it up, and the Wolves will ask for a 4-for-1 trade right after the game.

    Like it is everytime.

    You wake up in the morning, eagerly awaiting the evening and a great Rockets win.

    The evening comes - but with a disappointment. The Rockets lose again.

    The Rockets will get better but that's not going to happen so soon - esp only 2 days after being demolished by the Mavs.

    I can't imagine losing this one. Losing this one would send us into a funk for the entire season.


    Rockets 99
    Wolves 81


    Francis and Garnett with identical stats:

    34pts, 12reb, 8asst

    Hopefully, Mobley will take advantage of their poor defense at the 2 also, while Francis should destroy a VERY tired troy Hudson.

    It will be another loss but I think we will definitely gel a bit better than our last couple showings.

    Minn 98
    Rox 93

    Garnett will KILL Eddie G. 31 pts, 17 rebs, 8 assist and Eddie G will get 7 pts 3/9, 4 rebs, 1 block and shoot 4 shots over 20 ft.

    Yao will get 11 pts 4/8, 7 rebs, 2 blks but set ALOT of AMAZING SCREENS and BE a GREAT DECOY. :(
