    But they also got barbosa, who is a better score whos not named mcgrady or ming in this team. then there is amareand marion. those guys are rely on nash to get them the ball. you get nash into foul trouble and they'll stuggle to creat shots for themselves. only diaw is the other playmaker.

    No he didn't. AB got run ragged in the 3 minutes he played at the end of the game. The one real weakness in AB's game right now is his defense.

    Wow, playing the Suns and Warriors back to back. Why not just make Yao run a half marathon instead... if the Suns game is at all in doubt, we should save Yao for the Warriors..

    no hope for rox to win... but please prove i am wrong.
    scola can be the key, making AS look like idiot. Steve plays great great defense against steve, tmac focus on scoring. :)

    barbosa does NOT need nash to give him the ball. he has had 30+ scoring games w/o nash MANY times. he scores the most when nash is on the bench. grant hill or diaw don't really need nash b/c they're capable ball handlers and creators.

    amare, marion, and bell do need nash b/c they can't create for themselves.

    but when nash sits, they give the ball to barbosa and they don't miss a beat. unlike nash, barbosa is a blur so he rarely uses the pick and roll like nash does and just goes off.

    This will be a tough game, but I hope their 3 ball is off while ours is on....we need great contributions from all players not named Yao and Tmac.
    rox win.

    The key for a win: Yao comes off bench. Believe or not.

    ahahaha, you put the part in about steve to make your prediction sound aunthentic, because you realised it was a little farfetched...you know he probally will get on the court...

    I mean anyway, why would we even consider a prediction from a guy who cant even spell it correctly?

    Alston should NOT guard Nash in this game. Mike James used to be and still is a strong defender. I don't know why Adelman isn't using that strength for situations such as these.

    THis game should be a big indicator on how good a coach Coach'A' really is!
    WE will be able to see if he is flexible or not, we will be able to see how he matches up with them with good substititions or not! :p

    The Rockets should be able to kick the Suns' ass this season. Key factors: offensive boards and transition defense.

    A Rocket win!

    Go Rockets!

    I hope Yao doesnt become a liability in this Suns game again. They keep on pounding him the ball even if it doesnt work. At Tracy will be playing this time and hopefully Yao will get less attention.

    If Rafer shoots below 40% in this game, we lose!

    Bonzi, james, Scola and steve (if he plays) better step their game up and T-MAC be who T-mac is.
