    Rox win this one. Enjoy this one though, because the road gets bumpy after this.

    If the clips pick up Eddie before the game that would be wierd :confused:

    MY predictions is that Brand does to Cato what every other Legit PF does...

    Don't they have a guy named Chris Wilcox that many, many, many posters on the board wanted over Yao Ming. I wonder if he will play?

    He played in the last meeting. He is a PF on that team, isnt he? Brand will play Yao for most of the game I think.

    I predict that halfway through the third quarter I'll spill half my beer as I jump up and yell, "that's it dammit... they need me... I'm going in...".

    The Rockets, after almost causing me a fatal heart attack (or at the least some embarrassment as my bar stool falls back and hits the biggest dude in the bar in the nuts...) will pull within a few by the end of the third quarter. They finish strong in the 4th and win the game 98 to 86...

    Damn..we are looking good. I hope this isn't a one time thing. I really hope we can continue to play like this. It's just beautiful. I still think we need a big guy who can shoot from the outside like Scot Williams. But just look at Cato on defense..he's just great...blocking shots getting rebounds. He sets great picks too..no more offensive fouls...but still looks bad when he's left wide open. If he can somehow learn how to shoot..man I think we can be very good. Seriously!! Please keep it up! But Yao..make them free throws!

    This Rox team can surprise you sometimes. Clippers have been playing really good ball lately and Rox really dominated them in the 1st quarter.

    I wish Yao would play like this every game. :D

    It depends on the teams he faces. If a team has no real physical center and short PF, Yao does very well. If a team has a physical center and a long, athletic PF, Yao could not do anything against them.

    Yao will be a monster, if opponent's C can't stop him.

    This the the reason why Yao's playing well. Not about opponent's C/PF. I hope that they finally found some way to play well Together .
