    Not feeling good about this game...

    Who is going to come off the bench and play defense on CP3? Headless?

    Rockets will win this game. This should be a good game and I expect the Rockets to play solid defense. Chris Paul will go off but if we limit it to just him we'll be fine. We will have a double digit win at some point in the game and we just have to maintain that.

    Ouch, so far (which is so sad to say) watching this team has been a PAINFUL expirence. Yao, Ron, Mac are not playing well. Aaron Brooks is showing his potential but he still needs time. Scola has been awful, team has had its ups and downs, btw too bad we've had more 'downs'.

    It is sad to say, we have played 9 games (only) into the season and one game, when I really was having fun watching Houston was game in Phoenix. Guys at least showed heart, effort, etc.

    It is a tough one, but what is the good news Hornets haven't been playing really well either. Defensivly we have to stop CP3, we need to make him shoot over the top and limit his penetration which usually causes asists or points for himself. Real test for AB, but at least he is quick enough.

    Man, I really hope to see Tracy, Yao playing WELL. Really well. What I hate about this team is our lack of agressivness. I mean, at the beggining of the season we were getting to the line a lot. Everybody was making their free throws, even Tracy was/is over 80%.

    And since that time we have fallen with love with jumpers. Ron only takes 3s, jong jumpers which I hate, because with his strength he can take anobody in this leauge to the basket and will have to do it tonight especially when Peja or Peterson will guard him. He has to explode.

    The same situation with Tracy. T-Mac, remember that you are 80% free throw shooter. Don't jack up jumpers, DRIVE, please do that becayse with you doing that this team is much better. Stay agressive offensivly for the whole 48 minutes. They have peterson and Stojakovic and we have Ron&Tracy. Man there is a BIG adventage on offense for us. We got to go to that mismatch tonight. Just make them pay, and once again, ATTACK THE BASKET.

    I hope we can finally score at least 100 points. I hope we can play good offense and defense. I hope yao, Ron, Tracy can play well. I really DO.

    so, GO ROCKETS !

    Ten! In honor of Walt Frazier, who the Rox should bring out of retirement to run the point.

    This could get embarrassing with no one to stop CP3.
