    4th in 5 nights. Knicks desperately need a win. Bad vibes, very bad vibes.

    I don't feel good about this one either, but I think we'll pull it out.

    Knicks - 90

    they stole one from us at home! we owe them one, and don't think the players forgot.

    this old team is tired and the knicks have been losing but we still have the star power to pull it out.

    the knicks are a good offensive team but can't play any D. when tmac and yao get going we win every time.

    after an emotional win last night, i'm a bit worried about our intensity level tonight. the good thing is that the knicks are terrible. suck it up rox, please don't play down to the level of the competition.

    The Knicks symbolize the worse managed team of all sports. We should NEVER lose to this team. They have 5 guards who are all ball hogs on the court at the same time.

    Marbury makes Tmac look like John Stockton.

    Just Hope our rosters can hit.

    Look at recently games: from Mvrk to Magc, I just feel when we can hit we are unstoppable.

    go rockets, go yao, go tmac, specially go Howard.

    We have to be 24-19 when we host the Kings again a week from today. Knicks, Magic, Hornets, in our next 3...

    Yao SHOULD dominate all 3, averaging at least 20/10, especially against the undersized Knicks and Hornets (road games though, be wary)! Tonights game is the 2nd of a road back2back in which we (and most teams) are usually terrible. Look for Barry, Barrett, Bowen, to get significant minutes...

    Expect it to be closer than it should be with Knicks getting an early lead, the Rockets playing defense in the 2nd half, and slugging out a 6 point win. Similiar to last week's home Nets game, but higher scoring and no OT.

    Then again, I hope I'm wrong, Rocket's on cruise control winning by 23...:D

    We will be down 85-87 with 2.9 seconds left. Howard inbounds the ball to a running Sura near midcourt. Sura throws up a 3 pointer that banks in. We win 88-87.

    What goes around comes around...

    Hoping the Rockets keep up their intensity and bring their A game.

    I think T-mac will drop his usual 28pt and Yao will continue to get back on track with a 27pt nite. I'll also go out on a limb and say Wesley break out of his recent slump and adds 20pt.

    Roxs 101
    Knicks 87

    Yao should score 100pts against the Knicks. If they even pass him the ball.
