    That's what Rockets used to do (lost to crappy team but beat good team) when JVG was still here. Not anymore! This season as far as I remember Rockets haven't lost a game they're supposed to win.

    ^ and the raptors.

    anyway, the few games ive seen of the nets, they are beyond horrible. ive seen more coordinate bball from a high school team. just watch out for lopez, double team him and the nets are easily beatable.

    The Kings are playing very well though. The Raptors, on the other hand....

    I think Bosh just wanted to impress our management.

    Is anyone else a little excited about perhaps seeing Jermaine Taylor get some serious burn tonight?

    I hope he can knock down some jumpers. He has shown that he is better getting close to the basket.

    Is CDR still out for them?

    If so, I see this being a blowout.

    CDR is their go-to guy this season.

    Folks this is real. I am on a NJ Transit train to the game right now. Guy just came by to check my ticket. His name, as sewn on his jacket, is ... McGrady.

    It must be a sign.

    I always get nervous about these games. Should be able to pull it through, but can't underestimate them, though it's hard hah.

    CDR is playing well as is Lopez, but fortunately our two best defenders are at those positions in Battier, and Hayes. We need both of them to bring their A game on that end of the floor tonight. Also don't let Harris go off, and NJ really doesn't have much aside from that.

    Rockets -117
    Nets -93

    Blow them out in the 1st quarter, and make sure Ariza doesn't play the rest of the game, and we should be able to win. :)

    yea, you almost hope ariza doesnt have a good game today..because thats guaranteed he has a poor game against the Cavs (or in other words, a typical Ariza game).
