    cant wait to see Stro...I think we pull away in a tight one, 89-86, because I do think TD, Parker, and Ginobili will play very few minutes, and I'll go as far and say that the Spurs bench is not as deep as ours...

    man im so anxious with this game... hopefully the spurs will play ginobli/parker/duncan for at least 20minutes so if the rockets beat the spurs... there's no excuse.

    88-83 rockets

    1. without yao we will get an idea of how good stro is.

    2. i'd like to see how well rafer runs the O without yao, and how well his defense on parker is.

    3. i'm interested to see how well head does on O against the likes of bowen and finley, manu, and maybe parker. i'm also interested to see how he guards them.


    prediction:

    1. i expect about 13-7 for the season so tonight i would guess 15-9.

    2. rafer keeps up his play with 7 ast. and 2 stl.

    3. guarding manu is tough for anyone, finley is a little big for him, he might matchup well against parker. i'm still undecided.

    Well, considering he'll get preseason minutes, wouldn't it be more realistic to expect 13-7 tonight? I just don't want you to get your hopes up :)

    i appreciate your concern but i think i'll be correct. the difference is only one extra basket and 2 rebounds. anywhere from 13-7 to 17-9 would be great IMO.

    below that number (if given enough minutes to do more) will be dissapointing. anything above will be awesome.

    I expect Yao to play, its going to take weeks to grow back his toenail so tape that toenail up with some duck tape and get on the court big fella. :)

    Definitely am looking forward to seeing the Yao/Swift combo on the floor.

    My guess is experimentation...Skip has played well, so no controversy.

    is it just me, or does Duncan look kinda skinny?

    looks like he may have lost some weight/bulk
