    It's a win with or without Dwight.

    Should be a Rockets win even without Dwight as long as they respect the opponent.

    First game of the year wasn't Al Jefferson out?

    The Rockets better take this game seriously.

    Walker is going to cause problems and Henderson/Jefferson are going to TCB.
    Charlotte is getting better and playing well down the stretch.(even though it's the East)

    Without Dwight, this is where Asik needs to play big....

    Again, they should be, seeing as this is the home stretch, but if the Rockets aren't up for this, well...it's going to be close...
    I'd love to see us handle them like we should, but wonder about matchup issues/ effort early.

    We'll win, though it might be closer than people expect.

    He played.

    The cats are finally force feeding the Toronto Raptors version of Hakeem.

    Wow this was when we were starting Dwight and Asik... it's remarkable that Dwight got 26 rebounds. If he doesn't play I hope Asik can grab about 15 and the team overall can crash the boards.

    Twin tower lineup would be good against the Cats. They can't shoot.

    Tough game tonight. The Bobcats have been great at home lately. Rockets need to come out focus early on and not get down by double digits.

    Hope Dwight can come off the bench in this game. I think he will be needed.
    Bobcats can pull off an upset.

    Bobcats are a good defensive team. Rockets this year have had a bit of the Jekyll and Hyde syndrome. Don't take this game lightly.

    They're gonna keep feeding Al Jefferson in the post most of the night.

    The hang with us until either late second or mid third and then we say goodbye.

    Personally hoping Howard sits. They should let James sit alongside of him for Philly. Let the other guys get those shots to tuneup for next month.

    I still would try to get Harden/Howard/Parsons an additional couple games off down the stretch. Chandler still seems to be moving uncomfortably at times.

    We don't need luck in the playoffs... We need health (and a little luck).
