    Agreed. These guys are playing well and this is going to be a tough, tough game. Hopefully Yao will show he's figured out how to deal with the likes of Blount. Battier's perimeter defense may be key in keeping our backcourt from getting overwhelmed.
    Garnett will probably have a field day, but then again, who do they have to match up against McGrady?

    For sure the schedule gets more difficult in December. 5 back to backs. But I don't think the Rocks will lose tonight. T's back to back in different towns stat gets them. Sometimes the schedule helps, sometimes it hurts.

    According to a note in the Chron, Bonzi worked out with the team yesterday and may be activated tonight if Juwan is put on the inactive list. But that doesn't mean you are going to see him on the court. Here's the link

    How long will JoH be out? Just curious. Hope Bonzi gets enough time to play.

    I don't think people are giving the T-Wolves enough credit. They almost beat the Mavs last night and I'm sure they're wanting to redeem themselves and of course Mike James has something to prove. He's had good games against the Rockets last season, but for some reason, I'm really looking forward to seeing Mike James play K-Bill.

    My Prediction:
    KG- 21 pts 13 reb
    Mike James- 18 pts 4 assists
    T-Mac- 18 pts 8 reb 8 assists
    Yao- 25 points 12 rebounds

    Rockets 91
    TWolves- 86

    James will definitly be gunning tonight, hopefully his gunning will disrupt KG's game, but there is no reason that we can't win this game.

    Yao > Blount
    Hayes < KG
    Battier > Ricky Buckets
    T-mac > Hassel
    Alston = James

    Except for KG their starting five is pretty mediocre, and their bench is who? Troy Hudson, their rookie who's name I forget, Mark Madsen?

    going to be a close one, foye is a good penetrating guard. probably will see a lot of small guard lineups (combo of rafer/head/vspan) tonight. bonzi will be there but probably will not play, novak will see some court time only if kg is on the bench.

    rockets 95 wolves 91

    going to be another test for the rocks. twolves came back from 12 points deficite and won against the lakers, and erased 15 points' dallas lead yesterday and almost did it again. i hope the rocks can get a lead and hold on to it and win this one. go rockets!!!

    KG is already getting old at 28. and mike james sucks, that cancer to basketball. he woulda been great on the rockets with that instant offense. but he's a worthless point for the twolves


    yao goes for 30 and 15
    tmac goes for 20 8 and 6
    v span with 8 points.
