    LOL! My prediction, Yao ought to eat Rasho alive. Let's see if Rox can get the ball inside and execute. Our offense has been steadily improving so it should stay competitive.

    Rox lose after Yao missed 10 4th quarter free throws in a row.

    It’s going to be a defensive struggling, but Duncan will torture our front line with 25/15, Park & Manu will be driving into the paint like craze; but in the end, their inconsistent outside shooting will cost them the game.

    Rockets : 82
    Spurs : 77

    I don't care about results, but game procedure.

    If ROX can consistently play 4 QTS (instead of 3 QTS) game, and CATO&& JJ could contribute 20pts at the offense end, the final results would be preferable to ROX.

    If only he is not lethargic tonight, YAO would contain Spurs' center. To some extent, CATO also could neutralize TIM's offense. ROX can ignore Bowen's presence at the defense end. JJ can help CAT take care of MANU.

    So, how about ROX' performance tonight? It is much dependent on how SF3 handle ball.

    Do you think JVG will use Yao to guard TD one-on-one tonight? He used Yao to guard Randolph during final minutes of the game.

    still predicting a boki's double double, because he has to get lucky one time

    Taylor would have a big game, he has been playing well lately, and I have just picked him up in my fantansy league. if he wants to stay on my roster, he needs to have a big game.

    Yao should guard duncan, I think yao style is very good for defending duncan. Yao's hook shot also have been lookin sweeter, less awkward, expect him to use it more. I have to say though, he reminds me of georghe muresan with that unstoppable hook.

    Tony Parker is going to kill francis.
    Ginoblili will frustrate mobley.

    It'll be up to motay, boki, and yao to save the day.

    a rocekt win in the end.

    the offense will be ugly for both team.... the best defensive team in terms of Opponenets FG%

    i think we will win due to the fatigue of the spurs and being at home hopefully yao and cato do a good job on TD and yao breaks 20 points
    (you all remember one of the games last year when yao had 27 and 18 against the spurs in a win)

    Its not on TNT (detroit-cleveland and NO-phoenix are). I'm pretty sure this game is on Fox Sports rather than KNWS...somebody correct me if I'm wrong.

    Rox 86
    Spurs 81

    need to keep Ginobili from going off...if we can do that, and hold Duncan under 30, we win.

    Rox are going to lose. Duncan will have an average game, Ginobili's and Mobley's game cancel each other out, but Parker goes off for 30 while Francis gets 15. Yao will get somewhere around 15/8 but Nesterovic cancels him out.
