    Was the Wizards game a fluke, or will the Rockets continue to demonstrate the winning formula that is defense? The Bucks will be a gigantic test.

    Defense?

    Whats that?

    I predict Glenn and Sam will have 25+ points. Ray Allen will have a decent game.

    I get the sick feeling that Tim Thomas will get 30 points.

    Somehow we seem to match up pretty well against the Bucs. Didn't we break our 415 game losing streak earlier this year against them...and without Stevie?

    If SF plays, we've got a shot at beating anyone if RT can get the team to embrace the concept of 48 minutes of hard-nosed defense, along with trusting your teammates. If there are any takeaways from the Wash. game, maybe those are a couple they can build on.

    And despite the win, I hope RT doesn't fall in love with the three guard starting lineup. It should be used only in "spot" or matchup situations.:rolleyes:

    Go defense. Go assists.

    Defense? Rockets? Bucks?

    This is a shootout. Should be fun, though. I'd love to see the Rocks take it to the hole tonight, instead of trying to match shot for shot. Bucks have that matador d, too.

    Alley oop to super cato.
    E. Griffin on the left block
    K. Thomas on the r block
    S. Francis down the middle
    C. Mobley backdoor slam
    Moochie Norris slithers in left for layup
    Oscar Torres strong from the right block
    Dan Langhi on the breakaway
    J.Collier with the pinpoint pass right under the bucket

    In my dreams...in my dreams
