    The Rockets cannot at any point be more than 10 games under .500. This is the last loss the Rockets can afford. If they lose this game, they better win a few in a row. I'm not feeling good about our chances tonight because of the heavy minutes dished out to our players yesterday evening. But they have to go at it again and we'll see. Go Rockets!

    oh, and this is easier said than done but if the Rockets can contain Brad Miller, we'll be in it. Bibby has been playing poorly lately but he always has good games here. Brad Miller must be contained. Howard vs Miller is where the game will be won or lost.

    I am afraid that the game is a set up for the revenge of Ke Thomas...

    That trade was over 2 years ago...KT may still not like the Rockets, but he's had his chances at "revenge".

    After last night, I don't know how they'll find their legs, but grab a win, guys!

    Rockets by one.

    JHo and Wes combine for 40 points.

    Rafer and Stro have big games and the Rox pull out a win.

    85-82

    Stro has a game as crazy as the glazed over look he has on his face when on defence, but goes for 25 and 10..

    Rockets with the W

    75

    72

    Newsflash: Rockets down to seven active players!

    Wesley is out with "booger nose" and Juwon Howard is suffering from "Mudbutt".

    I hope they can win tonight. But a loss is waiting. We are handicapped.

    This is brutal, who makes these NBA schedules, not only a back to back but they have to fly 6 hours to Sacramento to play. They should be playing against another East team tonight and not a west team in a back to back.

    This season is getting away but the dilemma is that this season looks like one of those seasons where a sub .500 team might qualify for the 8th seed in the playoffs so tanking this season is not clear cut.

    Rockets 88, Kings 85, Bibby having heard of the trade speculation on a certain fan site, tanks the game (obviously for the benefit of his "future" team) and gives the Rockets a W!

    A team devastated by injuries is just what the doctor ordered for the ailing (not as badly as us though)Kings. We shouldn't be in this game :/ . Yet I believe it will be close and if it is, we have a chance.

    Rox win 86-84.
