    yes deke is active tonight, any reason why francis is still on our scoreboards? and also head is starting at SG why no wafer, guess a trade of head is in the works as a showcase of what he can do. The scoreboard as of 6:30 pm they might update it to change some people.

    here is what I expect tonight......

    The Rockets will come out of gates swingin, open up an 8-10 point lead early, struggle in the 2nd quarter, blow a big lead in the 3rd, and hold on in the 4th to squeak out another ugly win.

    We're not at home, so I see a nice offensive game with a 15pt win.

    Is McGrady playing? it would be helpful because I have him on so many fantasy teams.

    That's actually why he's playing. He knew you needed fantasy points.

    McGrady loves fantasies.

    I think it is smart for T-Mac to play tonight and not to play against Boston. Right now, it is hard for this team to beat Boston no matter T-Mac play or not.

    Yeh. I was thinking about this the other day... I would rather Rockets at full strength in the games they SHOULD win so we don't drop them. Then if we beat the better teams its great for confidence and if not then we can think 'well t-mac didn't play'. Just get to the playoffs first... then there is no back to backs!

    It's been decided, Rick Ad is the dumbest coach of all time for starting Head.

    Head hasn't done anything wrong yet.

    In fact we've actually been getting good shots so far. Raptors have been simply shooting over us. We are getting Yao very deep in the post.

    This is the game where Yao should get as many touches as possible. Raptors' interior defense is very weak.

    well, lucky for us, the Tronto Raptors are playing lousy basketball. If they keep playing like this, we'll win easily.
