    Rockets win, 78-72.

    The Nets centers are both looking eye to adams apple with Yao so he should have his best game so far.

    (For all you guys having a post-up game, a seven inch height advantage on someone in the post is pretty fun, don't you think? It's all over.)

    Rockets win. Yao goes off because of JVG's wise decision to not ride him during the easy win the night before...to the ire of the Yao-Only fans on cf.net. :D

    Looking at those stats, the Nets are a pretty damn good defensive team. I don't hear enough about their defense, but when you look at it, they're just as cohesive on the other side of the ball as they are when they're under their own basket.

    I'd anticipate the Rockets having problems on offense due to forced inconsistency, i.e. players having to resort to those "Home Run" plays. Defense will be the key. Whoever gets hottest on offense in the 4th will be the winner.

    All-in-all, I'm gonna love to watch this game. Thank God for NBATV.

    dang, all of these threads start out the same exact way, perdictions of the score, rox win, and not one person is gonna make a mistake!!!and as soon as the game starts , you take every chance you can to bash moochie, stevie, Mo, cat, cato, and the list goes on!!!we have to set realistic expectations for our team!yes i know moochie turns the ball over, but hey, that's why he's the BACKUP!All teams make mistakes, let's try to remember that tonight!please!!!!!

    If it wasn't for Kmart being out, Rockets would of loss this one. Now it's 50/50. Kidd and company are still one of the deepest team in the NBA, and you might see mourning line up with collins during the 4th quarter.

    Rockets 90-85

    Key # for the game

    1. Bench scoring by Nets vs Rockets, MO T and Boki have to contribute and allow starters to be fresh in the 4th
    2. Points in the paint by Rockets
    3. Pts off turnovers by Nets

    Well, last time we played them Kmart was out. Kidd and Jefferson both had 30 points and we lost. I hope our Van Gundy defence can hold these guys.


    Rockets: 89
    Nets: 86

    Ming: 25pts10Rebs
    Francis: 15pts6Ast

    Our interior defense SHOULD be able to shut this team down. Kidd cant shoot, and jefferson cant shoot, so interior defense will be key. Transition defense as well. Overall, this game is gonna be real ugly, reminisent of last years finals.

    We will win if we play good team offense. 74-73 rockets.

    Kenyon Martin and Alonzo Mourning is out. Hopefully that will be enough for Yao Ming to have a great game. By the way how much did he play last night.

    im just hoping Richard J. doesnt have a big game.
