    I forget the numbers, but I remember Amare having terrible games against Yao, sometimes he gets off a few dunks, but in the end, his numbers look really bad. he had a decent game last year in the SF elbow game, but he shot something like 25% for the game

    I expect to see Spoon get some time in guarding Marion, especially in the 4th quarter when our offense will be the yao/T-Mac show. I recall the Matrix really messed us up bad late in the game the last time we played Phoenix. Offensive rebounding is really going to be a key to this game for us, so I home Juwon airs up his Pumps real good.

    You are reading my thoughts, aren't you? ;)

    Let Nash get 30+ or even 40+ points, and we will beat them .

    I wish he wore Reeboks because Juwan hurts the Jump Man brand by wearing Jordans.

    I think Yao will be up for this game (22pts, 11 rebs, 2 blocks, 1 assist). Phoenix is so fast it will be hard to put a leash on them, but Rockets will manage to keep it tight during this game. Expect 25+ from TMac and a decent Sura resurrection. I think other players will step up and contribute heavily to the point total - Wesley 18 - 20 points, James 22-25 points). The end result will be:

    Rockets: 109
    Suns: 104

    this game is in Phoenix, right? if not forget what I say.

    Refs are gonna screw Yao and the Rox for that matter.

    Fowls on Ming as fast as the peking duck they serve in his restaurant. Maybe a league record of someone fowling out in any game.

    Yao is gonna get a mental breakdown again playing in Phoenix.

    Big loss i'm afraid. :(

    I think the game is on one of those FSN alternate channels
    If you have dish network it says channel 445

    They'll start Hunter at the C. put Joe Johonson to the 3 spot and move richardson to the 2 spot.

    Yao is an intimtading figure right now. he is changing alot of the suns shots. Amare looks scared going up against yao.
