    Let's get a big win here and keep the Suns out of the playoff picture!

    As Yao already mentioned, I doubt we'll have to worry about Shaq flopping all over the place.

    This is almost a must win for the Rockets; otherwise, we're slipping close to being out of the playoffs.

    I love when Yao Ming plays against Shaq. It's always fun, and It's always entertaining.

    Rockets should win this game, not going to say my prediction because I don't like to jinx anything.

    Although, Amare usually does horrible against Yao and the Rockets. I hope to see Lowry in the starting lineup on Friday. :D

    amare is out for the season. you'll see a lot of shaq v. yao b/c they run a lot through shaq. it'll be fun to see how yao fares v. shaq now. shaq will go v. yao straight up so that's good.

    I know that, I'm just saying It might actually be easier if Amare is playing. Amare was awful in the game earlier this season.

    I am looking forward to this, I hope we don't double Shaq either. Shaq always makes excuses like they doubled me and we didn't double that center.

    PG won't be a problem, Nash plays no defense.

    20 pt 10 ast game for Brooks.

    PHX plays NO defense...NONE. We play defense, seems like we should handle them.

    First Page!!! I predict a 103-98 win for the Rockets. Houston's role players step up big time and Phoenix has no answer for them defensively.

    The best way for the Suns to secure a playoff spot is to injure Yao. Then the Rockets will fall out of contention and the Suns will be in. The NBA won't defend Yao because they think everything is Yao's fault (flopping, etc.).

    A little worry about Yao. Shaq will get excited to play Yao to show he still can be tough. While possibly Yao will be too kind to beat the old Shaq,not like the way he beat Howard.
