    Yao vs. Howard
    Scola vs. Lewis
    Battier vs. Richardson
    Martin vs. Carter
    Brooks vs. Nelson

    I like how we match up against them. Both teams have a deep bench (Pietrus, Anderson, Bass, Duhon, and Gortat)

    I will say the Rockets win this one by around 5 pts. Expect both teams to play their starters in the 1st quarter and about halfway through the third quarter, before the second string gets a run along with the JV of both teams. Neither Adelman or Van Gundy want to show much offense and defense in terms of techniques before the regular season for other teams to scout hard on. I expect heavy minutes out of Mike Harris, Ish Smith, Alexander Johnson, Jordan Eglseder and Antonio Anderson, possibly 3 out of the 5 closing out the game down the stretch. As a fan, we can expect to see maybe one or two offensive and defensive plays shown and that is it. For Orlando expect heavy doses of Malik Allen, Ryan Anderson, Brandon Bass, Daniel Orton and Stanley Robinson. While it is nice to have basketball back, the preseason is how the teams around the league view it "A chance or an opportunity to go against different competition" and it is also used as an audition process for players who don't make the Rockets or Magic squad to be looked at and scouted in terms of possibly helping another team, or being sent to the NBDL come season opener.
