    I would like to see T-Mac take the ball to the hole strongly when his shot isn't falling like he did against the Grizzlies. He can penetrate and dish the ball to Yao and continue to make the entry pass as well but he needs to dunk when he gets the opportunity instead of only taking jumpers.
    I don't expect us to win tonight but if we put up a strong effort we can beat the Clippers.

    LOL, let Lue take it.

    Seriously, I think this is going to be a tough game for the Rockets. The Clippers do have talent and Dunleavy really has them playing cohesively on both ends of the floor. I dont think we can stop both Wilcox and Brand and I dont think we can stop Maggette. I look for the Clippers to give us a serious run for this game. I would not bet on this Rockets team to win this game thats for sure.

    well rockets better come out firing this road trip and at least split if not they are in deep sh**. also, im a huge rockets fan and i stand by them through whatever, but JVG is trully the worst offensive head coach in the nba. it is impossible to have two superstar offensive talents like we do and be a terrible offensive team like we are right now. most coaches would die to have two players of yao and tmac's caliber. dont get me wrong he is possibly the best defensive coach in the league but wins are measured by outscoring teams and right now with the simple and easy to defend offense we run, it will be difficult to win games no matter if we have an all star team out on the floor

    I just checked both links and the pre game is on now. I edited my first post to take out the wrong link. 1540 is the right one.

    I was pumped to watch the game this afternoon since its so crappy outside until I realized its on channel 2....the NBA should not allow the Rockets to televise games on a station in which the reception comes in like I have the old rabbit ear antennae on my tv. This is a joke.

    Foul on Yao in first 9 seconds. Suck.

    2 fouls. Yao with another one of those crappy hands straight up fouls. Bye Yao.

    I've already seen much more effort and hustle in this 1st quarter than this Rockets team has shown the entire year.

    If they keep the energy level up... and play each possesion like there's no tommorow... they'll always be in a good position to win.

    Problem is... most teams cannot sustain that sort of play throughout one game, let alone an entire season. (but, it is fundamental for success w/ JVG's schemes.... esp. on defense... you must put forth a tremendous effort, energy wise).

    The Rockets just need to keep up this effort and cerebral gameplay for 48 minutes.
