:D Game will be on ESPN, April 5, 2013 10:30 pm ET

Rockets (42-33) @ Blazers (33-42)

Rockets
* 15-22 on the road
* Harden the beard man & Chandler the handsome stud will need to score at least 25 points each
* Somebody needs to keep LaMarcus Aldridge on check

Blazers
* Have lost 6 straight :oops:
* 22-14 at home :o
* Solid starting 5, with a sucky bench

Will Mr. Allen be putting on one of these? :roll:

chandler and parsons dont need to drop 25 for the rockets to beat the blazers. the team just needs to bring their a game. if harden's still a bit sore he shoudl sit this one out and play against denver. we can beat the blazers w/o him.

blazers lead the season series 2-1. played two games in november though. rockets weren't at their best and the roty was torching every team he faced. now with our team more polished it will be a lot tougher for them. i still expect him to have a good game but nothing crazy. lma will be his usual rocket killer...unless tj has something to say about it

Happy that ESPN picked up this game. Now I just have to hope that it isn't blacked out by the delta bravos over at CSN Houston.

Comcast isn't even showing it on their primary channel 639 because of the Astros.
It's shuffled over to CSN2 (which isn't really a channel)
It's channel 710 for HD and 110 for SD.

Hang on - there's a CSN 2? :lol:

I was wondering what they would do on night where both teams were playing.

Wow, Rockets favored by 6 at Portland? No Parsons, yikes. No worries, Lin's got this, he's got a score to settle with Lillard.

Let's go Rockets!

Delfino is a game time decision because of flu-like symptoms.

Lin and Harden both...

Lillard/Matthews have been beating up on them this season.

I hope Tjones get to play and play well again.

His combination of length, strength, athleticism and ball skill is exactly what we need in a PF.
