    Without Tracy, we have no chance to close this game out with a win. I want to see SF or AB get some playing time just to see what happens.

    Don't be so down...we will pull this win out and hopefully we see Stevie get some minutes...*ducks and covers* ...to finish the thought. Alston and james play decent and stevie comes in to give them a breather and prove he's worth giving chance.

    I want this win so bad and I hope dallas gets murdered tonite so we can dish Spurs their second loss and w/o tmaculous.

    I think if we are to win a game against the big 3 without McGrady, it is this one. The Spurs play a slowdown style, which suits Yao, and their offense can bog down at times especially if we dial up our defense like when we allowed 32 points against the Lakers in the second half. Plus the Spurs don't really contort their defense to stop Yao. They seem content to put Duncan on him 1v1 but last time Yao defeated that defense. They also have no answer for Bonzi, who is also helped by the slowdown style.

    I can't see us beating Phoenix though, and Dallas will be extremely hard.

    Just a little reminder. The Rockets beated the Spurs in SA last season without Tracy.

    Time to bounce back for a win after 2 tough losses.

    Yao 32/12/4/3

    Bonzi 18/8

    Rafer lighting up the Spurs 14/7

    Mike James b**** shows up 16/4

    92-87 Rockets win!

    Go Rockets!!!

    last year was weird,they beat us twice here,we beat them twice there,the weird thing is the first game we won there we didnt have tmac (yao broke his leg the next day) then in the second game there we won without yao. yet they beat us both times at home with yao and tmac.

    that being said,we can win with bonzi!! its time for a steve cameo too!
