    As much as I like the Rockets right now, I wouldn't be suprised if we lost this game. We just haven't played together much and our offence has been really stagnant. Defensively we're right there with Boston, but I look I think this is going to be a 75-85 point game.

    The difference maker for the Rockets will be Yao Ming and our evil will be Ron Artest if he goes trigger-happy and tries too much to be a hero. T-mac? I predict another usual game for him: 7-19 FG 6-8 FT.

    I will enjoy this one and I pray for us.

    This will be tough, Celts got beat in Indy Saturday, they are not going to want to lose 2 in a row. Brooks deserves to play most of the minutes at PG, Brooks has it all over Rafer offensively. We'll need to play our best players to win this game and playing Rafer over AB gives the Celts an advantage.

    If we had Battier in this game I think we win no doubt. But without him, seems like a tossup.

    First Post...here goes nothing:

    I'm ready to get revenge for ending our streak last year. Yao needs to have a big game vs. kendrick perkins (who's from Beaumont could have a big homecoming game). After that, I assume they put Pierce on Artest so McGrady needs to go off on Ray Allen (unless for some reason they stick KG on Crazy Pills but then who guards Scola?)

    I hope Tracy's knee feels a lot better for this game. We need to win this game so we can let the rest of the leauge know we're not playing around.

    I went from rooting for the Celtics at the beginning of last season (love KG and Ray Allen).

    To being pissed when they ended the win streak.

    To outright hating them after that nonsense during the preseason game.

    Now I really want the Rockets to stomp them in this game.

    Never liked the Celtics, especially disliked them after they aquired KG and RA...i have nothing against those 2 players....i like teams like NO hornets who have grown and developed their players into contenders....

    Will be a tough, physical game for sure. Celtics will want to prove they aren't the new Detroit Pistons and simply cruise to the playoffs. Rockets will want to prove they are legit this year. Our offense hasn't clicked yet and the defense is a little suspect (and missing Battier), so I doubt we're favorites here. But I still see a close game going down the wire. And love to see Artest vs Pierce.

    Just remind you that we did not really draft Tmac or Artest.

    I do hate the Celtics.
