5 - Howard
4 - Jones*
3 - Parsons
2 - Harden
1 - Beverley

Is Jones back tonight? We'll need solid play from Lin & the Bench crew tonight. Casspi or Garcia needs to step up tonight.

vs.

5 - Gasol
4 - Randolph
3 - Prince
2 - Lee
1 - Conley

No morning shootaround for Houston due to the weather conditions this morning. Jones remains day-to-day.

Tough set of games against Memphis the next two days.

Edit - Jones is back, Motie off of the bench.

GO ROCKETS!

Jones isn't known for his size but he is our 3rd biggest dude in the roster aside from Asik and Howard and we need some size aside from Howard tonight by going against the Grizz's physical 4th and 5th spot.
Hope he gets to suit up. If not, We need a big night from Howard.

Grizz turning it up as of late. Should be a nice test considering how physical they are as a team. The fact we are playing a home-and-home set almost assures that it will be physical.

Mr E. Not sure but I think Garcia may still be out injured. Casspi has been good lately. Is Greg Smith ever coming back? Tweets are saying TJones may play tonight.

watch out for lee, he got his shot back in memphis and he's been shooting the bell well. he said he lost his shot in houston. it could be that he lost his shot somewhere in the southwest division /bad joke couldnt resit

Man, credit to Grizz's defense.
We need to move the ball smarter.
Guys need to move without the ball more.
It all catch and shoot so far.

That was a ball but I guess it was a makeup on the Howard foul

Man, I'm gonna have my boys bring me a bottle of vodka instead of beers if the game doesn't change quickly.

Missed several open threes and that has to change
