    i see no point in trying to predict actual scores of the games, but i think van gundy and the rox team will make necessary adjustments and pull out the win. only one loss at home, lets maintain that. fans need to cheer harder!! or at least turn up!!:mad: damn corporate people. too rich to care

    HEHEHE...I think I need to make that last sentence my sig....I guess marginally better than "ass" is somewhat less painful than full ON "ass":D

    Rox can do it, no more Bonzi, and he used to eat us up--Please pray that they trap mighty-mouse like we did to Baron Davis...that would give us a 6-9 point win while avoiding "ASS-LOSING-SYNDROME"...hehehe

    Francis was required to score when he came to the Rockets and that just changed last year. Can you wait at least until the game to start posting negative comments.

    heh....Damon is the guy who tore us up last time...Bonzi was suspended last game. Based on the improved guard defense in the last couple of games, I have faith that the Rockets will at least slow him down a little.


    Game preview from NBA.com

    Rockets should win. We havent lost on at home since the beginning of the season...I dont see it happening now with improved team play.

    Go Rockets! :D

    Let see the possiblities:

    Wallace for two Ts, out in the third q. Damon shoots 1/9 due to the overdosed drug and Randdph is in foul troubles when guarding Yao.

    SF:15 STs , 0 TO (career high and low).
    YM:32 points, 1 rebound(career high and low).
    Pike: 10 three points (career high).
    Boki: 15 rebounds (career high).

    Rox will win.:eek: :rolleyes: :confused:

    that's what i was thinking.

    with francis focusing less on shooting the ball lately it should make it a tad bit easier when trying to get back and guard mighty mouse.

    You mean to tell us that Steve Francis learned nothing from his last Game?

    You mean to tell me you would complain if Steve put those numbers up in a win.

    Will be very disappointing if Rox can't pull off this one, Rox has been consistent at least at home so far, so go Rox!

    Let us have our revenge against Qyntel Woods


    but seriously I hope our players don't do the same thing as Qyntel did during the game in the Rose Garden. That would be dissapointing.

    According to Sean Deveney, Sporting News, Yahoo Sports, 12-9-03 (today), the Blazers are having a fire sale. We all may want to take a hard look tonight to see if anyone looks interesting. Of course the Rockets could probably pick up similiar players at our local jails or state prisons. They don't call them the JailBlazers for nothing.

    If JJ misses the game it's going to be a big loss. Nachbar can't replace him. Pike would probably have to get minutes at the 3 and Mobley would have to get extended minutes as a result.

    I think Ming gained a ton of confidence last game, maybe it was his break out game!

    Ming: 28 points, 14 rebounds, 3 blocks.

    Rocktes win 96 : 86

    I think the last time we played the blazers we were in the midst of a terrible shooting streak, we were also not passing the ball well, or running the break AT ALL. These are all things that we seem to have corrected over the last few games. I think if we play like we have been playing the last three games, especially the last two, we will win. :)
