We really need this win if we want home court in the playoffs. We have to start winning starting with this game. The west is really tough, we are already the 5th seed.

Yup, as of right now we have home court advantage, so we need to close these last couple of games off strong.

Yeah, I hope this game is a good and fun one. As evident, we play elite team at an elite level...But we play bad team at a bad level...So, I expect the Kings will play the Rockets good and tough....(Like the Spurs game)...I think ultimately, Rockets will win this....I wont be surprised that Kings came on top...

What makes you say that? Hawes is a good center currently...His feel of the game is VERY advance at his age (19 yrs old), has one of the best footwork as a rookie so far....Hawes has an UNLIMITED of post moves....His rebounding has been good and as well as his shotblocking (timing)... The only knock on him is that he need to gain strength to utilize his full post offense...So, ehh...

I like Hawes. If he can be anything close to what Brad Miller was, the Kings are set. KMart just needs to add a little more muscle to that frame, and they could use a Rose running the point, and their golden.

I really hope we win this one, This is a good game to see some Novak and Brooks IMO

This is a really important game.

Sacramento always give us headaches, even though (for the most part) we've been a better team than them since the T-Mac trade in 2004.

I'll take a win where Novak hits another game-winner, or T-Mac goes off for 62 and we win. As long as we win!

spencer is not a bust, not that brad miller might miss time the kings could see what they will get in the future with him

reminder: Artest always get hot against us

Texas Longhorns · Post #20 » by **Texas Longhorns** » Mon Mar 24, 2008 1:08 am

Reminder: The Kings-Rockets games are ALWAYS close. They ALWAYS turn up close no matter how much a team is up by. The fourth quarter with 2:00 left, it's always a 1 to 2 pt game.
