    Yao and T-Mac should take over this game completely. There's nobody, I mean nobody that can shut the Rox down. Starbury might score a few points here and there, but that's about it.

    Do we have to worry about the NY commentators making snide remarks about Charlie Ward still secretly being on the Knicks' payroll? :(

    If the Rockets will win this game, especially if Yao has a monstrous performance, then a great number of fans will compliment Yao, say keep JVG and the guards are doing great.

    If they lose, many fans will scream trade Yao, fire JVG, hire Phil Jackson, etc. etc.

    Why are many fans so fickle and impatient? It takes time to build championship-caliber teams and not all championshio-caliber teams win championships. I however, believe the Rockets will win many rings, maybe 5 or 6 championships.

    Well, I just don't like the ugly, grind it out JVG ball!

    I think that most people, including the Rockets players will thow it away, unless you are JVG's wife!;)

    Rockets will win 89-83.

    TMac 8/21, 24 pts.
    Yao 5/15, 12 pts.

    Kurt Thomas will front Yao for the entire game.

    We will win a triple OT thriller. The score will be 44.5-44.

    Yao 5-18, 4-5 for 14 points.

    TMac 4-21, good for 13 points.

    Ward and Lue will combine for 1-15 from the 3s including a dozen air balls. However, since Ward makes the trey that gives the Rockets lead in the 3rd OT, JVG will praise Ward for his outstanding outside shooting touch and his ability to make big shots in big time.:p

    van gundy won't be able to pay much attention because he will be spending the whole game scouting potential new additions to the rockets team.


    however, he'll snap to just in time to shut down the heretofore exploding rockets offense in the 4th and throw the game for his beloved knicks (well the knicks on new york).

    Stephon Marbury is the only player in the NBA that I hate to see beat the Rockets, please don't let him win, not in Houston.

    Prediction-

    Marbury shoots the ball 25 times and then the rest of Knicks brick all the crunch time shots he gives them because they're cold as ice.

    Rockets 92 Knicks 85

    I hope he gets the chance to have that great game. The Gundy will probably keep Bowen in instead.

    Rockets: 78
    Knicks: 99


    Rockets Lose... However, Yao gets 25 points and Tmac gets 20. But the rest of the team is once again out of sync. JVG makes bad decisions throughout the game, constantly benching Yao when he is hot and any other player who is on a shooting streak. Our guards don't pass to Yao in the 4th quarter and when they try to, it results into a turnover. As a result of this loss, there will be more bashing of JVG and chaos.
