    I realize that preseason doesnt really count...but you cant say they havent won inyears when they won just this past preseason in SA.

    just jabbing ya on a technicality..;)

    btw...Im unsure if they can pull this one out.
    my gut says no, my heart says yes.

    time for the rockets to show us if they are mice or men.
    they should be thoroughly embarrassed by that performance Thur.

    If they have any cajones whatsoever...they will come out pumped and ready to win.

    If they dont....

    well,,,, ZRb may be more right than he knows. :(

    It will take an act of God for the Rockets to win this game.

    Rockets lose.

    Yao, you owe the team and the fans a monster night for that dismal peformance Thursday. Bring out the mean Yao. 30-20. No excuses.

    I think tonight boki is going to have a good game.. double double

    Didn't finish last game after the first half... it was so pathetic.. everyone shot air balls.

    I don't understand why some people are so jealous of yao
    yao is on your team! what's wrong with having people like someone so much on your team.
    I think yao have been very consistent so far.. nothing spectacular, but steady and consistent.

    He is going to bounce back tonight and destroy rasho.
    Yao is a little bit like lennox in a way I think. They are just so talent and so much bigger, they think they can just take it easy sometimes and lay back. But I think Yao will rise to the occassion, esp. if rox makes it to the playoff.. yao would start to show his dominance more consistently.

    This should be a rockets win, and I am sure the offense won't be as bad as last game. I'll definitely record this game and watch it later.

    I really think that JVG will come up with a better strategy for the rematch. Neither team will shoot as poorly as the last game. I see a high scoring game and the Rox should win 97 - 92.

    If the refs allow another wrestling match in the paint, Van Gundy should keep Yao out of the paint on offense. Set picks for Steve and Cuttino with Yao shooting the occassional jumper. If the refs actually call touch fouls, try Yao in the post if Nestorovic defends him. If Duncan is on Yao, I wouldn't do it. Yao and Cato should just try to not have Duncan and Nestorovic be too overwhelming. Yao and Cato's main focus should be to clean house in the paint. Make sure noone comes in for easy basket including Duncan. If the Spurs guards outplay the Rocket guards, it'll be a guaranteed loss. Steve and Cuttino are playing against youngsters in Tony and Manu. If they don't get it done, it'll be a long night for the Rockets. Also, Cato shouldn't be shooting any jumpers for any reason. The odds of one of his jumpers falling in is 5%.

    It's the ***wait and see*** attitude...The fans are exhausted....It's about "which team will show up on the court tonight." One never knows....

    Sloppy Francis :confused: or efficient Francis? :cool:

    Pansy Yao :( , or Pissed-off Yao? :mad:
