Wolves @ Rockets - 11/7/10 - 6 PM CDT - FSN 

Post#1 » by Breakdown777 » Sun Nov 7, 2010 5:21 am

WOUNDED WOLVES

VS.

RECKLESS ROCKETS

Who knows who the starters will be.
Yet another game plan against the Wolves, as Yao Ming was saved to play against US (must really be desperate for win number 1).

The battle of the injury having, no defense playing teams...should be high scoring at least!

Go Wolves!

fyi - Martin and Brooks both suffered injuries in tonights loss to the Spurs. Not sure what the extent of their injuries are, but apparently Brooks is more serious than Martins

I might miss the first part of this, but hopefully I should be back in time.

LOL. This brings back memories of when we beat the Suns with Foye and Jefferson a couple of years ago.

I honestly think we could pull a win here though. If Johnson's shot is on again, Beasley continues to get comfortable in the offence and Love doesn't shoot like he's Allen Iverson again I think we'll be fine, especially if Brooks and/or Martin are out.

Beasley vs Battier will definitely be an interesting matchup to watch....

WTF is Ish Smith by the way?

Guy went undrafted, played 35 minutes last night against the Spurs and went 4-16?

How can an undrafted rookie attempt 16 shots?

I bet he'll destroy us tonight.

I predict an uncanny defensive effort by the Rockets followed by Yao Ming's signature "He's back!" game where he rips us a new one. The victory will be the spark that inspires the Rockets to play better basketball here on out.

I can see where you're coming from.

Luke, Wes and Brewer need to light it up. Rockets backcourt is very poor defensively with Brooks and Martin.

We could need a Big Al to torch Yao.

Yao. Healthy Al constantly ripped healthy Yao apart.

I assume the title should read 6PM CST now that daylight savings has ended??

Time for Easy to have a signature game. I'm just looking for he and Snipes to play well until Fynn and Webster come back. I think Mike is the second most talented player in the history of this team, maybe third to Marbury, but it is certainly refreshing to have this kind of potential on the squad.

Mike will likely be guarded by Battier, so tonight could be tough.
