The Spurs have been sucking lately. We can win this game with/without T-Mac.

Why is it hopefully "#2" Tracy McGrady??

Anyways, I don't expect a win here, San Antonio is struggling, so they should come out strong and play extremely well. We can hang in there likely since we do play a similar game, but in the end when it comes down to executing SA will kill us.

Yao should have a big night, Manu is overrated crap, and Scola should make the spurs pay for letting him go.

manu is not overrated....and yes i do believe scola should and will make the spurs pay for letting him go.

this should be a good game, it is expected to be a sold out crowd with both rockets and spurs fans.

one key to the game is to not force up shots we know we cant hit, and also we need to colse out games for god sakes.

t-mac said its a 75% chance he will play, and he most likely will come off the bench.

Wow what's with the uncertainties. I've got 2 roster spots, and I don't know if Hinrich, J'Oneal and T-Mac are playing. I don't know who to leave out...

its gonna be close. does anyone know if parker is playing? i read he got a black eye, but his heel is giving him problems. i expect mcgrady to play, if at all, 20-24 minutes. cant rush your way back into this. its still somewhat early in the season. this is where we hold them!!!!!

If only we were playing the Bucks. Then I could smash out one of TRs greatest lines.

75% chance... meaning there's a 25% chance that he wont play! hey! chances of me making out with a very hot chic was like 2%, but i got lucky and we made out last week! :rofl:

if tmac is also lucky tonight, he wont play

Looks like T-Mac will play off the bench. Regardless of all the negative talk about T-Mac lately on these boards, he's still T-Mac.
