    Wow, I was actually first. I expect Aaron Brooks to go crazy tonight, along with Trevor Ariza. No way Steve Nash can keep up with AB.

    do people seriously think frye can back down chuck hayes in the post? the chuckernaut is gonna make the suns organization regret letting go of shaq the fattest C in the game. we gonna bring out andersen AND chuck to the 3pt line so frye can't even get a 3 off!

    we'll just leave grant hill open bc he's gonna go for broke when he tries to take off for the open dunk and retears everything in his knee like tony allen 2 yrs ago.

    brooks is gonna patent his 4 foot step backs behind the 3pt line in nash's eye.

    mandry's gonna take throw down nasty dunks all day in amare's grill. amare's gonna be helpless like tmac when on that failed launch attempt when he blocked his own break away dunk.

    we got this on lock, cruise control baby.

    favored by 2 points for some raeson. got the same feeling for this game as the mavs game. although they dont have jason terry so i doubt they will blow us out.

    Not cool man! Grant Hill is too classy!

    This is going to be a fun game to watch. It will be a good test to see if the Rockets can keep the up-tempo, but still stick to their solid D. It will be tempting to just have a shoot-out w/ the Suns like the Warriors usually do, but it is important to play D still.

    Rockets win though!

    Suns are so dangerous. They can beat anyone in the league, but they can lose to anyone as well.

    I think our team is well suited for them, however. Ariza plays the passing lanes better than just about anyone and I expect him to steal several balls. Our interior defense (namely Chuck Hayes) should stifle Stoudamire a bit. I worry most about Jason Richardson and Grant Hill. Hopefully Ariza/Battier can keep them relatively in check.

    This one's gonna be a dogfight. If the Rockets are even slightly off their game shooting-wise, we could get blown out.

    There's no way to tell which Rockets team shows up. I'm tired, it's 2 am, going to bed, Rockets lose. Why not?

    We're probably going to win this one, i really believe in our team, especially after the game with the lakers, and i believe we're gonna win against the suns as well. Can't wait to see what happens.
