I thought Redd was returning tomorrow night? Maybe not.

What happened to Redd? I didn't even know he was out.

Nonetheless, another game we have to take care. Need to stay focused and play the whole game. They're not a great offensive team and we can't let them get hot. And please just execute on the offensive end, don't turn it over and take smart shots, and I'd like our chances.

Just like Tinsley returned tonight. Redd will probably return tomorrow night. Thats just how our luck is.

After tonight's Pacer game, I'm unsure of whether we can pull it out against the Bucks

Redd might not be ready for tomorrow's game (knee) but it looks like Desmond Mason will be able to play.

After tonight's Pacer game, I'm sure of whether we can pull it out against the Bucks.
We watched the tragedy unfold. We did as we were told, we bought and sold. It was the greatest show on Earth...but then it was over.

I'm sure this game will draw the attention of millions of viewers in China.

:lol: I flipped on the TV and went to NBA TV - there was some infomercial for "Go Up Strong". Apparently Mcgrady still has 35.5 in vertical... It was supposedly taped in '07 and it showed them measuring his vert...

WTF is this in games? If he still has that kind of athletic ability why not use it?

No way, Tracy and Yao will destroy Milwaukee.

But again, we need to play defense which was just horrible yesterday. Play with energy, move the ball, do not just stand. And do not think it's an easy win...

Of course I hope McGrady will get his fouls....

If Michael Redd doesn't play, then we have to win this game no questions asked. We handled Milwaukee pretty easily earlier this season (when our rotation was very different), and Milwaukee just typically has never matched up with us well. Also, T-mac usually goes off against Milwaukee. This is a must win, and the Rockets better treat it that way. Go Rockets.

T-Mac usually rips up the Bradley Center.

He should not play but let's face it, even with Redd we should win it should not be an excuse. But as i said, he will probably not play. Rockets.com says he won't
