    man the preview considers Yao and Magloire a wash?!? what the hell are they thinking? anyways Yao needs to have a strong game and let his teammates feed off him. Strong game doesnt mean high scoring it just means touches and getting everyone involved.

    Im really looking forward to this game because its on TNT and they usually play well on national TV.

    SF3 came off a good game and good win and hopefully can carry that over to this game.

    That was then. This is NOW. Yao is is playing with a great deal of CONFIDENCE these days. Yao will shoot over Magloire with ease.

    I expect an EASY win tonight. Rockets win easily 99-90

    Speaking of dirty players, Magloire is easily one of the biggest cheap shot artists in the game. Yao has had problems with guys like this (Magloire, Potapenko, etc.) because they've been able to get away with playing overly aggressive.

    Hopefully Yao's arrival as one the NBA Elite will give the Hornets a heavy dose of Yao's FT skills and Magloire warming the bench.

    Rox Win ... 93-82

    I think it will be a easy win due to sluggish outcome from Yao last game. Yao always adjusts well after a bad game. :D

    Rocket's must give away "L's" grudgingly, too few games left. Got to get this one, too many super tough ones ahead. I expect an all out effort tonight and a playoff atmosphere with Memphis. The Rockets have to get that "take no prisoners" attitude. Ming and Francis have had their quota of "off games." Championship level play is mandatory every game from here on.

    After the Clippers game, Yao said he learned his lesson on not preparing for the game. He may intend on punishing the Hornets from the gitgo like he did against Dallas.

    I'm still waiting for the refs to make playoff type calls since playoffs are moments away, unless the playoff-standard refs are not doing Rockets games.

    Totally agree, ROXS need to show what they are made of and losing a game like this would not be something a playoff team would do, need to win this one go strong into the game with the GRIZS.

    ROXS win this one!

    This is what I meant. I fully expect to spend tonight screaming at the TV about the officiating.

    I don't think that JVG had any answers, if YAO was doublly-teamed. If Hornets use the defense strategy the same as Clippers, ROX would cry tonight.

    Also Davis would kill MJ, if JVG lets MJ play much time tonight.
