    To avoid the wrath of Behad, I'm not going to make a prediction. All I will say is that the game will be close.


    I want your predictions. Are the Rockets going to improve to 3-1 when I'm in attendance? Will they improve to 8-5 overall?

    101 - 97 Rockets win in OT...

    seattle will lead most of the game, but not by much...another Rockets/sonics classic

    ditto on the Lewis interview:)

    Steve lights Payton up but Payton still comes away with 20+ points taking 20+ shots. Rashard Lewis will kill us but Cuttino/Kenny/Walt will be too much for Seattle to handle. Glen Rice will shoot decent this game as well but lack of passing only gets him 8 shots for the game.

    Rockets 98 Seattle 91.

    Francis: 34 points, 12 rebounds, 6 assists, 4 steals, 1 block, 2 turnovers, 3 dunks, 3 fouls, 1 nasty cross on Payton.

    Mobley: 23 points, 3-3 3 pointers 6 rebounds, 5 assists, 2 blocks, 2 steals, 1 alley-oop, no fouls.

    Rice: 28 points, 7 rebounds, 2 assists, 5-7 3 pointers, 7-7 FT's, huge break-out game.

    Seattle is playing thier 3rd game in 4 days on Friday and during those games Lewis hasent played too well.So look for him to come out guning specially against us!!!

    I dont think Shard and Payton are enough to beat us,we will win with ease no matter what the score is!


    Finally are bigmen have an advantage over the other team:D

    I think Francis and Mobley are going to come out blazing but those two will just cancel out Shard and Payton so we will need somone else to step up.I wished this could be Rice's breakout game of the season but if not KT and Willis are going to have to do something on offense unless Walt is still on fire that is.



    99-91 Rockets win

    So far, 10 people think the Rockets will win and 0 people think the Sonics will win.

    Hmmmmmmmmmm....I agree

    Rockets 100
    Sonics 86

    If we get off to a good start, which is rare, and we shoot the ball well it won't be close.

    Francis will score a lot, but he'll have to take too many shots.

    C'mon guys, it's Payton, not Jesus (SA Spurs). Francis won't have it easy. Come to think of it, neither will Mobley (Desmond Mason).

    We're gonna have top rely on our frontline and our bench for this game.

    In overtime:

    Rockets 100
    Sonics 95


    Kelvin Cato with a big game.

    BTW, any word on whether KT will play?

    I don't know. It will depend on Thomas getting playing time and how well we play if he is hurt.

    At least ZRB won't start a Rox suc thread during the game.

    I really hope they win we need it to keep that PLAYOFF TRAIN going.:D :D

    BTW, this Rashard guy seems to be pretty good. Where's he from? Too bad he's not from Houston so the Rocks could have seem him up close. I wish they could've had a chance to draft him...or 2...or 3 even.:rolleyes: :confused: :mad:

    like Microsoft, Seattle will be truely anti-competive tonight. Seattle will have a couple of performers in Payton (Age of Empires, a winner in many categories) and Lewis (the new, up-coming, MS Messanger with questions about if it is anti-competive or not).

    Rox win by the number of quality MS products/programs - 8 pts 93-85

    Rockets 88, Sonics 85.

    Gary Payton will be unstoppable and Rashard Lewis will hurt us but no one after that.

    Look for a big game from none other than Glen Rice. He's due to break out just like Walt did in the last game.
