    what we are really missing is battier, a Tmac who decides to will and somebody who can replace our starting PG for good.

    Man, the Rockets tried to set the offensive tone by going to Scola at the start of game. Scola couldnt hit anything. That spelled the doom of the game.

    I do wonder if they're tanking this one. It's a risky strategy since it means we're all but counting on the Spurs to beat the Jazz on Wednesday(unless by some miracle we win in Utah tomorrow night). But it wouldn't shock me if the Rockets are intentionally throwing this one to avoid the 3rd seed.

    How else do you explain them playing THIS awful?

    The Wells trade still amazes me. No backup for mcgrady and battier. Traded for green who was waived to bring another 6'6 pf. I mean at least sign patterson or demarr johnson.

    You sure are outraged... Do you practice this same kind of commitment to excellence in your own life?

    Rafer is hampered by his hamstring, and there's no BJax to pick up the slack. Add Battier being out of the mix and it's gonna be hard to beat any team. Oh yeah, and Yao's out, too. Crazy injury riddled season.

    I just calm down. I know we will lose it. But it is NBA, Nuggets are fighting, we are not.

    BTW, I really wanna be 5th more and face Jazz in the playoffs than be 3rd and face Suns :)

    I just hope the Rockets aren't taking this game seriously and are focusing on Utah. Just win any game you can!

    I expect them to try. Rafer suck but letting Luther play point means they don't care

    Why though ? I honestly would much rather play the Suns than the Jazz ! The Jazz have a better hm record and we just cant beat them in the playoffs. Every freakin year the JAZZ END OUR SEASON !!!!!!! So why would we tank and have to face the Jazz ?

    if we lose tonight, we'd have to win tomorrow against UTAH on the ROAD to have home court advantage. i dont think any of the rocket players or staff realizes this

    Well lets see. T-Mac prolly still has a bad shoulder, Rafer and his hamstring, Bobby isnt 100%, Battier is out, as well as Yao.

    Were gonna win this game by 10 points. Genius Adelman is brewing up something special as we speak. No worries guys.
