    Tmac goes for 43.

    If Yao is really out and doesnt play at all then T-Mac scores 37, David Wesley scores 22...

    Rockets 96
    Bucks 91

    Things to consider are:

    *Dike played better than Yao against the Bucks.

    *Gaines played 33 mins but got a DNP against Cavs

    *No JJ or Wesley both were replaced by Gaines

    So all up there is home game advantage and Rox are stronger in two positions for this game.

    Dikembe should come to the game with some ketchup smeared on his elbow. He should tell Redd and Mason that he bloodied some teammates in practice and didn't want to wipe off the blood.

    The Rockets can play small ball in this game since the Bucks don't have a low post scorer. It looks like a 40 field goal attempt game for TMac. I'd certainly run some plays for Wesley. I'd also post up Juwan quite often since he was successful in the Cavs game.

    This will be the third game I go to this season. The first one, Yao didn't play and in the second, Tracy didn't play. Hopefully they'll win this time.

    With Yao out, everyone else has to step up big. Especially Mutombo and Juwan Howard. Howard has to drop at least 20 points. Mutombo has to lock down the paint, block like 6, 7 shots and change whole lot other shots.

    New prediction:
    Howard 24 pts, 9 rb
    Mutombo 15 pts, 13 rbs, 7 blks
    T-Mac 29 pts, 10 rbs, 14 assts, 3 steals, 3 blocks. 5 for 5 from downtown

    Sura 18 pts, 11 asst, 2 steals
    Wesley 6 for 9 from downtown. 22 pts, 5 asst, 4 steals

    Rox 112
    Bucks 99

    With or without Yao, No excuse losing to Bucks again, if we do, Van Gundy is gone.

    rvpals...i bet that you won't even get 2 of those players putting up the stats you predict. i still think the rox can win...but you are dreaming if you think all those guys can do all that.
