Notes-T-Mac will be game time decision , they have Ginobili back , lets get a win.

Lets not choke this time

We really need T-Mac back cause I think we will struggle against the Spurs tomorrow. Alongside from Ginobli coming back, Parker is expected to come back also.

Parker already came back tonight. I don't like our chances...

Are we at home?

this is a big game for us,,,,we will be catching the spurs on a back to back so we should take it to them,,,,id like to test tony parkers legs with aaron brooks. If tmacs knee is better this would be a nice game for him over the smaller ginobli,,,,or if they guard artest with ginobli he can over power him.

I know this is off topic but didnt wade have the exact same double surgery as mcgrady a year ago,,,,did he re aggrevate it in 07 and come strong back strong the year after?? Anyone have any info on this

Yeah, we are at home. I dont think it would be fair for the Spurs to get the 1st 2 games at their court.

no t-mac tonight?

Wade's first knee surgery was on May 2007 and his second one took place sometime in 2008, just few months before the Olympics. On the other hand, McGrady claimed that his knee has been bothering since 2007 and received a knee surgery last May. So Wade had 2 surgeries, while McGrady had 1.

Prediction
Rockets 74
Spurs 90

Prediction: Rockets lead by 10 going into the 4th quarter only to lose by 1 point due to their inability to make a shot in the last 6 minutes of the game

We all miss the great preformance of T-Macs 13 points in 36 seconds.i pin my hope on their good teamwork without T-Macs.

Prediction
Rockets 96
Spurs 88

Somehow i expect a win for the rockets. Not surprise if this is the 1st blowout win too. That's just what my crystal ball tell me

I hope we can get a win , there are currently 7 teams with 6 losses in the WCF and we are one of them.
Every win is important for the playoff seeding later on.

If we can't beat the Spurs without Manu and Parker, I don't see how we can beat them now.

I'm predicting a Rockets loss.

Wafer will drop 32 in a losing effort.

T-Mac is not playing? And Spurs are full roster this time.

Good game to see if the Rockets have the toughness.

thanks for the info. This will be a tough game but we really need this one. They are coming off a back to back so theres no reason why we shouldnt be able to take this one down to the wire. Instead of making artest create his own shot maybe adelman will actually use his point guards to get a good look for someone which is basically there job

it would make my day if we can win this game.. we are certainly capable of winning but will we win?.. im not holding my breath.. Bat will come off the bench for Manu and Ron will start. hope AB gives Parker a good run and Scolandry can contain Duncan like they did STAT and West.. Please rick do not hesitate to put chuck in!

if we win all our problems will be put in the back of our minds for another game...again...

I'm still upset about last game...we need this one, but its going to be tough. Spurs are playing much better and now they're big three are back. I really hope T-Mac plays tonite

tmac out this game, and Denver....sigh, this team and this player is so frustrating.

That wuill give him a few more days , I want to see how his knee will respond to rest and what the others doctors he will see gonna say.

Even if we lose we got a ton of games left and we will be able to make up for it , Getting T-Mac in the same condition before his rest and we can just tank this season , we are not going anywhere in the playoffs.

We need him to get healthy.
