Rockets need to bounce back after getting that ass waxed by Cleveland. Which forntuantly I didn't have to watch because of football.

Is it true that New Orleans is a possible destination for McGrady?

McGrady, Brooks, Landry for Paul, Okafor, & Peterson?

Hurts to lose both Landry & Brooks but Chris Paul is freaking great. I'd prefer to keep Landry but New Orleans will find him more valuable because of his contract and production.

PG: Paul, Lowry
SG: Ariza, Taylor, Peterson
C: Okafor, Andersen
SF: Battier, Budinger, Harris
PF: Scola, Hayes

IR: Yao, Cook, Dorsey

IR:

Not telling you guys what you can or can't talk about, but for my part the next few hours will be McGrady-free. Shane, Aaron, Luis, Chuck, Trevor, Carl, Kyle, David, Chase, Jermaine, Mike...even Joey & Brian have my full attention for the game!

This is another game where we cannot let the record fool us. There are no "easy" games in this league.

Well...at least not when the Rockets are playing! :lol:

Truth. I get scared whenever Houston has a big lead. They play terribly with big leads.

oh look, over there, Image

look at who's leading the hornets in scoring, David West, starting power forward of the New Orleans Hornets, who are in the Southwest Divisioin, which is the same division the Houston Rockets are in. They are also in the same conference as the houston rockets, being in the western conference, and coincidentally in the same profiessioinal league, the national basketball association. Yup, David West is on that team and he's leading his team in scoring as of now.

It's always a frightening experience being a rockets fan. You never know what lies ahead in the road. Very unpredictable, i dunno how i dont have a single heart attack, but i've long prepared for that.

Rocket having a 10Pts lead is still better than the other way around. Just need to come out with the same intensity in the 2nd half and none of those 13 pts quarter again.
