tough game. they have hawes a perimeter center with range all the way to three point line. they play up-tempo. hopefully they don't front and double yao.
Yao-23 points Landry & Wafer- Combine 24 points Ron-......14 points if he has 40 attempts lol or 12 points if he passes and let his team work with him AB- 15 points The biggest concern for the road trip is stay on the grind. Honestly we should be ahead of the Spurs if we had the finished games that we were winning. And the Kings & Warriors have nothing to lose, so man its going to be hard. And yet I'm still ready already got my A & B games for the playoffs. Like Matt and Bill said, "The Rockets control their own destiny"

I think K.martin is injuierd. keys to a win: . keep a slow pace and not get into sacramento's high pace and offinsive game . Artest controling his shot selection . Yoa having more than 5 assists takin advantage of the double team.
Ron Ron goes for 17-43 for 41 points 0 assist 2 rebs 3 steals and 5 missed freethrows due to loud booing Plus a technical and a few taunts
Remember earlier in the season when we were dropping games like this left and right. I remember hearing at one point that we had lost to every last place team in the league (division-wise). While those do sting now, because they surely cost us the 2 seed, if is so nice to see a Rockets team disposing of the ugly teams. It is absolutely invaluble to be able to sit Yao's giant butt down for an entire quarter...not to mention Ron's ankle and Shane's leg...oh, and Carl's GUNSHOT wound. (Seriously? What the heck was Carl doing out at that time of night?) Biggest way we have improved since TMac fell terminally ill? We kill the crappy teams now. (One exception was our 4th quarter collapse against the Bulls...but one could argue that they are in fact a playoff team...technically speaking). I see us winning by 17 after the 3rd quarter, pulling the starters with 6 mins left in the 4th. Rockets win 99-87. Carl Landry has an "I'm back" game.
win! ron will go nuts yao will get everyone in foul trouble. wafer with another nasty dunk landry will posterize k martin scola will be 1 away from a triple double
Go take care of business, Rockets! This kings teams have been in some close games Their record may be poor, but they don't have as many players with attitude problems as the Clippers do (and Clippers pulled one from us ) I hope Yao and everyone can get some rest, but they will be in a heck of fight
