Al Jefferson is out. This means less torture for Yao. But it does not mean Yao will be able to touch the ball - - - fronting defense. Remember how the Bulls made Yao look like a complete idiot?

We'll prob blow them out. If we bring some intensity, but play within the system, we'll be fine. Yao is clearing decent space, at times, we need to trust him and lob that rock in there.

What to expect tonight?

Probably 20 point lead heading into the 4th quarter...Foye goes crazy and drops 20 on us...we lose to another 4th quarter come back.

We really missed Landry last night. Scola is a good rebounder and all but he gets his off pure hustle. We needed Landry's athleticism to grab those boards last night from a very athletic CHI team.

Hey, if I were you I'd hurry and change your sig before you get banned. Posting things like that is forbidden on the board.

In other news, Wafer goes for 40.

This is what I was afraid of - teams starting to post Brooks more and more with their bigger PGs. Rose last night in the 4 qtr and Foye this game.

Return to Houston Rockets
