I am not so excited, it is still early. Remember last season we climbed to third place after 9 games but still didn't make the playoff. Rox is not an elite team yet. But this season they will definitely make the playoff, I am sure about that.
i think mavs are gonna blow us out thursday rainin all their 3s, hopefully our ZONE will keep them at Bay and cat, boki, and padgett can rain back (wish pike was here already). its up to YAO to step up and dominate, he's the Xfactor, that will be their weak spot, mavs have zero D. I hope YAO drinks his gatorade for thursday, he's gotta DUNK that S***!
"Originally posted by Texas Stoke speaking of which... will there be a bit of history made that night? I don't think theres ever been two brothers as head coaches coaching against eachother in a game. I doubt theres ever been two brothers as head coaches in the league. That'll be an interesting side attraction for some to pay attention to." From what I learned, the 1st time was in 1977 when Larry Brown's Denver Nuggets played Herb Brown's Detroit Pistons. So this is the 2nd time for a brother combination, still a rare occasion. By the way, the Van Gundys call themselves 2 schmucks from California Herb Brown, I believe, coached less than 2 seasons. I hope that Stan Van Gundy's tenure will be longer than that but Miami is not looking good. Let hope that Stan can turn the Heat around AFTER facing the Rockets.
That may be the case (having not met in the NBA), but I GUARANTEE you they have a GELLAR BOWL Trophy.
The Rockets should be able to beat Miami easily. That's what scares me. This is exactly the kind of game that we drop. I just hope the tide has turned with JVG at the helm, and we actually win a game against an opponent we should beat. -- droxford
francis is a way better scorer than Nash.. Waaaaaaayyyyyy better! Mobley can score as much as Finely any given day. So they will cancel out. So the rockets should have a + on the backcourt match-ups
