    If only that were true, they would have made more shots than Rafer.

    T-Mac, inspired by Kobe's 52, and the fact that when at his best he can show up any of these 'kids' from the Class of 2003, dominates LeBron and shows us his greatness.

    Rockets win 94-87

    Get Hayes in the starting line-up.
    And we're going to win this game.

    Things I would like for Xmas:

    1.) Rafer putting up less bricks
    2.) More passes to Yao
    3.) McGrady driving and dishing.
    4.) Bonzi to hurry up and get in shape
    5.) No more injuries
    6.) Yao Ming to play like he did in the start of November
    7.) The Rowdies to expand on both sides of the goals
    8.) More free Big Macs for the month of December
    9.) Clutch Mini to return
    10.) A personal autographed ball signed by Hakeem

    i don't think vpsan should be used in this game at least not when varejao is in for the cavs. after that incident at the WC last summer varejao is the most hated player in Greece and i wouldn't be surprised if vspan "unintentionally" put his fist through varajao's face... at least i hope he will...

    I'm gonna be there - Section 416. It should be another sellout, to see LeBron.

    All of these guys who went overboard when we lost to the Suns are gonna feel better when we beat Cleveland tommorow. You can't win em all, and if ever there was a game we expect to lose it was that one. A home/away back to back, after playing a very physical game the night before, where Yao and TMac both were banged up. Not to mention the fact that we match up terrible with the Suns. We also showed a lot of heart, coming back from 22 down to take the lead, I was impressed. I though we would get run out of the gym by 30+.

    I think Cleveland is a good matchup for the Rockets. Yao does weel against bigger guys that don't front him, which is what Ilgauskas will do, Yao has played well vs. Zydrunas before. I also think we can contain LeBron James as well. Battier can match up well defensively vs LBJ, and we can double team with T-Mac.

    Rockets rebound from that night in the Valley of the Sun ... Rockets win, Rockets win, Rockets win.

    Formula: Yao at least 25 shots, T-Mac 15 shots, Alston 8-10 shots, more distribution. Much better shot selection is needed.

    Yao 16-25 for 40 pts, 20 reb, 7 BS. Time to establish YOUR dominance, Yao. Illgauskas should be abused early and often in this game.

    T-Mac 9-15, 2-3 3 pt range for 25 pts, 15 assists, 10 boards, 5 stls. T-Mac starts finding his groove.

    Alston and V-Span, distribute, distribute, distribute ... space out the floor!

    Lebron-harassed all night with our D, but still gets 30 ... fortunately the rest of the team lays an egg.

    T-Mac needs to do more with less shots, Yao needs to do more overall plus, shoot more.

    With a monster game from Yao, we should win handily.

    Final: Rockets 104, Cavs 79.

    MY predictions are notably meaningless as they are seldom on the money...but then again aren't pretty much everyones??

    with that in mind

    Rocks 91 Cavs 87

    Lebron triple double in a loss.

    McGrady and Yao carry the scoring load AGAIN.

    TMac 22. Yao 32.

    I'll be at the game (2nd game of the season)...
    T-Mac has shined in the previous matchups vs Lebron, he will rise to the occasion again and shut all these haters up (all this jumping onto Kobe's jock is sickening already...ugh).

    Rox win 90-81!

    Roxs win and no 4 q collapse. Bonzi plays 3 min and finishes with 1pt,1 reb,1 stl, 1blk and 1 assist. :eek: Not bad for 3 mins play...admit it. Plus he takes a charge

    your not serious about Bonzi are you?

    Dont you go getting all excited about him.

    the guys not gonna play in a Rocket uni again.

    He's trade bait - and pretty useless trade bait at that.

    I say 42/15/4 is not within Yao's ability either. Yao is good, but not "that" good yet. That's my whole point.
