    The 100% McGrady will be noticable in this one.

    140-94..

    McGrady scores 40 in his debut.
    Artest 40 steals
    Yao 40 rebounds, 40 blocks.

    :)

    This one's going to be a tough one to win. With the possible return of McGrady and/or Artest, and the sore knee of Yao, I expect there to be some confusion and miscommunication out there.

    Still, it will be good to see some of those players back in the lineup.

    The possible return of T-Mac prolly will ignite the Rockets to another road victory despite minor miscommunication out on the floor.And it's really glad to see a 'need to be confirmed' 100% T-Mac out there.If it's really like what he claimed in the interview,I'd like to give him heaps of props for his rehab in the past 2 weeks despite his lack of systematic rehabilitation in the offseason.

    Rockets rout the Piston 110-89,MoTown team continue the slump since they acquired AI3 from Denver. :D

    This is it. This is THE game to see if McGrady is what he says he is, or if all these rumors are true. I'll be pulling for him, but I honestly have no idea what to expect from this game. With the way both teams have been playing it could literally be a blowout on either end.

    Piston is not that strong after CB was traded. If Yao could play, Win is the sure thing... Go Rockets

    Rocket did well in the previous years against the nuggets mostly because of

    ALLEN IVERSON.

    Iverson can sometimes be good, sometimes be bad. If I recall correctly, whenever the nuggets beat us it is usually when A.I goes off. A.I does not have Billups ability to make his teammates better, so it should be easier to contain the other players. The one thing we need to make sure is contain A.I, or hope he has a bad night. If that is done, the Rockets are targeted for victory.

    Is Yao injured? I am watching the Celts/Mavs on ABC and they just said Yao might not play because of a knee injury from Friday's game?!? :confused:

    yao said he felt fine and x-rays were negative. i think if he were to sit out, it would be for precautionary reasons.

    i just want the team to take all the necessary tests to full confirm he's healthy. i don't want another knee bruise to happen.
