    Second!

    Also I'd rather they beat Fakers any time.

    Agreed, this is a big game against a good team, but I can't help to think our momentum is going to carry us through.

    The Clips have lost 3 in a row, 2 losses were against the Pistons and Spurs but the last loss they got killed by NO. They miss Maggette and I think he will still be out Saturday. NO beat them with Paul's penetration and kickouts to his perimeter shooters. So not unlike a lot of games this year, if we can hit our outside shots we win.

    im worried that sam will take advantage of our rookie guards.
    hopefully, cuttino would take cuttino shots, so we can grab some defense boards!!!! :D

    The Rockets by 2 in a nail-biter.

    Rockets 107
    Clippers 105

    Sam, Cat, and Elton give us absolute hell. Yao has a huge game, with Tracy pulling it out at the last minute.

    did you watch them play piston? It wasnt even close the whole game.

    We were not scared of Minny when Sam played there. That Minny team is comparable to this clipper team if not stronger. Let our D dictate the game. Those guys will play out of their minds if we can frustrate them.

    The wife got me tickets to this game 10 rows up from the court - dead center court. That'll be the closest I've ever sat to a game before by far (well at least without having to watch for an usher that might kick me out). I'm really pumped for this game and I hope the Rockets don't dissapoint. 4-0 on this road trip is now not good enough. We need more!

    This is the one game on the road trip that I'm worried about, but I predict that we rise to the occasion. Rox win.
