    Bench I think you need a new nickname! =P

    Im expecting a breakout game from Yao this time around.. I know i've been expecting one from Yao since the start of the season but he is slowly but surely rounding into form. His last few games he has been much more active but limited by foul trouble. If he stays out of fouls I expect 30pts/ 18 rebs/ 7 blks.

    SF and Yao always seem to do well against GS like how some teams just match up well like we do with the Lakers. I think we can crush them and maintain the momentum as we start our road trip..

    Rox - 98
    Warriors - 68

    SF gets a triple double.. 14 pts/ 10 rebs/ 11 assists

    Go Yao! Go Rox! Go Super Duper Backup Bench Brigade!

    Every time I venture into one of these threads and make a prediction, the Rockets lose... so, I'll say nothing.

    The Rox are so night and day...I'm still not convinced the trade of Mooch and John was the right thing, but what the hell do I know...

    Rox: 71

    GS: 76

    Keys to the game:

    1) Contain Jason Richardson --> he can go berserk and take over the game

    2) Yao must play STRONG against Dampier. He must outmuscle him and show him who's boss.

    3) Francis as playmaker.

    Man,

    Last night Dunlavey Jr came by the place with a few friends to watch the games and eat, he was the only one not drinking...too bad i could have got him drunk so he would suck tonight.

    Later on though around 1 AM Mark Bryant who frequents my place sundays came in with Clifford Robinson, who was drinking a bit and stayed out much later....not that he plays much but hopefully he will be tired....

    I love the new arena being in downtown, in that time i have met more players then i did the year before.

    Rockets by 10

    98 - 88

    only a couple weeks before i gotta go back to austin. that means no more rockets games outside of nationally televised games :(

    just hope dampier doesnt play all "good". didnt he make some comments about the big chinese guy last time we played that seemed inflamatory to alot of people here? called him out or something if i remember (and i dont)

    NVE will be really dissapointed that he's not a Knick. I think it's been on his mind, and he'll take it ou on us tonight.

    Hopefully, we'll be able to contain him and squeeze the win out.

    As long as there are no surprises (30pts for Cheaney or Popeye Jones), I think we'll pull it out safely.

    No Actually i Own a sports bar downtown, so i am a big sports fan and it's pretty cool to frequently see players in the league, and be able to talk to them casualy. That's all.

    Sorry, I forgot to ask about parking. That's usually difficult in that part of the world.

    Well it all depends on when you are coming down....after 6 all the metered parking is free, we have a parking lot directly on our lot, but they charge, if you are coming the nights we are a club like saturdays and fridays then they charge more. But usually during the week it is real easy to find parking along the streets, and on off nights they parking attendents are not there so you can usually park for free at any one of the many lots around us.
