    Edit: #2! We must win this game and in order to do so, we absolutely must match KG's intensity and effort. Tis a must win for the Wolves and KG is gonna come to play like there's no tomorrow. I hope Tracy plays or we have no chance. Rockets win 100-96.

    We need Tmac/Yao to avg. 50pts per game and we'll be OK

    Rockets win: 91- 85

    I would be disappointed if TMac doesn't play tonight, we will have to treat every game as if it's our last from now on.

    Our guards have been doing a lot of extra shooting practices and they broke out of their slump in our last game. This game, they will be on fire and we win big. Yao will have his usual 20+/10+ but with more assists. TMac will play and he'll play well too. Game will be over by the 3rd quarter.

    The ONLY concern I have is the way D Wes was treated by Ricky Davis and McCants- I hope we don't see a repeat.

    Rafer should contribute on the offense. And Tmac should be healthy- Please!

    We will win if Mac plays. Otherwise, a long night and swarming defense on Yao, the guards brick and we lose by 8.

    Hmmm....

    In this game, you will see two fierce competitors go after it: KG and YM.

    KG will start hitting majority of his shots but then Yao Ming will start guarding him and he will be forced to take outside shots and miss.

    We will then see KG in major foul trouble and Madsen will sub in, but Yao will run him over...

    Box Score Prediction:
    1 2 3 4
    Houston 22 31 33 23
    Minnesota 26 29 28 18

    Summary: Pretty much, I see this as a very close game... T-Wolves 55, Rockets 53 at halftime... 2nd half - 56 - 46...

    Final Score Prediction:

    Houston Rockets - 109
    Minnesota Timberwolves - 101

    Yao Ming -- 24 points, 12 rebounds, 4 assists, 3 blocks
    Tracy McGrady -- 18 points, 7 rebounds, 6 assists, 2 steals (Yes,he will play)
    Juwan Howard -- 13 points, 9 rebounds, 2 assists, 1 steal, 1 block
    Rafer Alston -- 12 points, 7 rebounds, 9 assists, 2 steals

    Kevin Garnett -- 28 points, 17 rebounds, 5 assists, 3 blocks, 2 steals (WILL NOT BE ENOUGH! HAHA!)
