    The Sacramento game was a perfect example of what wins ball games on a consistent basis-DEFENSE, DEFENSE, DEFENSE.

    The X-factor on that side of the ball?

    Shane Battier

    Last two games, he didn't show up on defense like he normally does.

    Its time Tmac takes the reins again, just like last year when he carried the team without Yao for that 20-10 stretch.

    COME ON TMAC BABY!!

    OH....AND PLAY SOME DEFENSE!

    It will be another Rafer-TMAC show, another loss.

    90:97 Blazers.

    I like our chance. Blazers do not have the forceful post presence to exploit our weakness, and I look for a big game from Tmac and Rafer.

    Looks like a good game for the Rockets to focus on getting their D back, bit I wouldn't be surprised if the game is a scrap where the Rockets do enough to win.

    We should have this game. We're up 3-0 in the season series, and they don't even have Roy this game. Rockets create separation in the 3rd and widen it a bit in the 4th. Rockets win by 17.

    (Unfortunately the Ralph Sampson mojo failed, time to move to another #50.)

    And there are FIVE teams ahead of the Rockets in the West, and the Rockets are only FOUR losses from being out of the playoffs (ninth place) as of today. And your point is?

    Bottom line, they are all urgent now.

    barkley already doggin us:

    talking about the 2nd game:

    "we have to watch this too? oh my god"

    then the main dude said, "the rockets are 49-25"
    barkley "so?"
    kenny - "so you don't believe in the rockets?"
    barkley - "no, and you don't either"

    just a heads up
