    I dont know about this one. Last time the rockets played a back to back they got hammered. Pistons are rested and gonna be ready to take care of business.

    The game goes into double overtime and Luther Head and John Barry rain 3's in the second overtime and we win with a commanding dunk by Yao Ming!

    McGrady coasts thru with 36 points and 18 asssists.

    Rockets win 135 to 133

    Rasheed, Big Ben, and Tayshaun comment they never want to face the Rockets again!

    This will be a tough game, especially with Yao having played 42 minutes last night and spending a lot of energy guarding Duncan. Detroit's frontline is certainly not shabby, and TMac will face another good defender as well. Should be a ugly low-scoring game, but I still have faith. We win, 75:72.

    Maybe they could get him the ball in the second half. Yao had ONE FRIGGIN' FIELD GOAL ATTEMPT in the second half last night. What a travashamockery that was...

    We didn't beat the Pistons last year and I don't think we did the year before that...when was the last time we did? Seems like they've crushed us everytime, especially year before last.

    The refs give free passes to the Pistons on defense. Hard to beat that deal.

    Partying with "hot chicks" is not an option that I think my wife would approve of anyway. Oh I probably will watch, you never know with TMac and Ming, if they both go off at the same time anything can happen. It does seem like it is them against the world, though. Luther H. is the only other bright spot right now. I still thing Swift might work out, but hope is fading fast for everyone else but Mutombo. Even Barry looks spent.

    You mean pentance, I think that better describes pain, suffering, and the absence of exciting, well played basketball. ;)

    Probably not. I'm a die hard rockets fan but i'm not going to lie and say they'll beat the Pistons tonight (esp. this early in the season)


    It'll be a DANG'OL blowout.

    I'm so conflicted about this game.

    One thing for sure tho, JVG should def. Tivo this and take some serious notes.

    and our role players miss wide open shots as usual. This loss will herald another revamp.

    Ok, I seriously hope the Rockets organization isn't reduced to Tivo. I would hope they would have tapes of each of their games, and tapes of games of opposing teams as well. :p
