    Let's win this one, we won't have a lot of chances to beat Spurs in regular season anyway

    Maybe when Dary Murray see how bad defensively our team will be having Jordon Hill play center is, esp next to Scola, he'll sign Sammy soon... or maybe not

    All I know is I'm ready for some Rockets basketball... FINALLY!!!

    With no Duncan and Parker this should be a win, especially since McHale will keep a tight rotation similar to what he expect to use in reg season!

    Guess we'll find out tonight if Williams, Flynn, Dragic, Thabeet, Lin, Blakey and Morris get some minutes if at all.

    They better pretend this is the start of the season and come out blazing. Lowry, Scola & Martin need to set the tone from the get go on both sides of the court.

    I expect a loss, I have low expectations and hope to be proven wrong:

    87-98

    I think the youngsters should get the bulk of the minutes tonight. Especially Hill and Thabeet. They should both play 30+ minutes. Kinda wish Duncan was playing so that they would be tested fully, but Blair should be enough.

    You seem pretty calm. I would have been a lot more pissed if I was in that situation.

    Isn't this that game where they try to make the ball go through the hoop thing?

    Possibly, but its really hard to tell when watching Hill and Thabeet. It just seem like the objective is to hit the backboard....i think. I'll wiki it.

    By the way, that picture is from last night....Manu tweeted they went out for Brazilian food, and yet again, Scola found a way not to pay :grin:

    Anyone know where the picture was taken?
