    It will be interesting to see if Hayes can hang with Garnett.

    Mcgrady is going to have to find a rhythm at home here or else it won't matter.

    Rockets should, no, they have to win this game. No room for error against a team we have to be better than.

    Rockets 102 Wolves 89

    KG is going to get his points. There's nobody on our team who can defend him effectively except maybe T-Mac. More than likely Van Gundy will want to sic some double teams on him (Bax/Hayes!) to make him less efficient, which should work since the rest of the team sucks, minus Szcerbiak [sp] who's finding his shot lately.

    I really think this is a game the Rox can take. The T-Pups are a broken team since they lost that shocker to the 76'ers and the MN media here is sounding the alarms about the course of this team. The Pups are going to look at this game as a chance to get back on course but if the Rox can come at them hard the Pups will collapse at the end like they've been known to do.

    We will need Head and Skip to make outside shots along with Wesley to make things easier for T-Mac otherwise it will be difficult to win.

    The Wolves looked like crap against the Grizzlies. KG looks like he has given up.The Rockets should smoke them. I agree with JVG on this one, it is way past time to light the home fires. The homecourt disadvantage must end!

    Eddie G and KG combine for 50 pts and 30 boards but Tmac drops 60 in the second half to pull out a victory.

    As long as we contain Garnett and limit his teamates this is a Rockets win. Go Rockets!!!

    Not even the premier big men can hang with Garnett let alone an undersized rookie like Hayes, JVG better give the rook some help.
