    Rockets must win this to end this slide.. I hope Steve will play and practise
    his shots so that he will avenge our last defeat by their bench player, Terry.

    I'm hoping for:

    T-Mac to play as usual

    Stevie to give us something positive to say about the PG spot

    Bonzi to make layups ;)

    Scola to continue coming into his own

    And Yao to make it to the FT line a lot more.

    Go Rox!

    He got about 5-6 lbs to go and then he'll be a stud. He's just needs to keep eating right and working out hard. 2 more weeks.

    Now that Tmac is back, Im hoping that Scola would still get more touches in this game. Make some one on one plays for this guy.

    It would be very demoralizing, if we don't win this next game. It will be a tough game, but we must win this game if we want to get any momentum. It is a must-win game for Rockets!

    To date, Coach A has only shown me that he substitutes players better than Coach Gundy. Defense has taken a step or two back. He is just as stubborn as Gundy when it comes to who should be in the rotation. With the extra weapons we have (Scola, Mike and Steve), we should split the series with Dallas. If we can't win the next game, I don't know how much trust I will have for him to take the Rockets to the next level.

    Let's hope that we will win this game.

    Francis looks like a real tub of lard. :rolleyes: Totally out of shape, barely able to move. It is a wonder he is still breathing as huge as he is.

    This game is going to be a dog fight from when the ball is thrown up to the closing bell sounding! Rockets might come through this one if the fouls are called fairly. Yao Ming keeps changing his position and it loosens up the defence. Tracy gets 12 assists and scores 22 points while everyone shoots on all four cylinders.Coach 'A' loosens up and plays 11 players. We do a Dallas on Dallas and win with a strong last 5 mins of the game:p

    If Yao don't rebound, he will be equal to ... Kwame? If rockets dont win this one, more people will change to bashing mode.
    80:100 lose.

    Yet midway thru the 4th quarter at stoppages of play, he was really sucking wind. So he wasnt fat(which is a dumb overplay of being out of shape), but you could tell his conditioning wasnt where it needs to be. A big improvment over the preseason though, which is encouraging. It wont be long before Rafer will have to improve his play to get some time at the point.

    Actually most of the bashers have already given this one as a loss even though T-Mac will be back.

    Another set of photos from sina.com about TMAC's shootout practice on Monday.

    According to the reports, after participating in 20 minutes of team scrimmage with physical body contact, there was no ill effect from his shooting arm; so it is currently optimistic that he will start and play again in the game with Dallas Mavericks.

    We really need a win, and I think we can get it becasue Tracy will be back.
