Gonna be a good one!

Rockets need to come out strong from the get go!

Keep the turnovers down, shoot the 3 well, and for the love of God please rebound! Don't give the Spurs a ton of second chance opportunities!

GO ROCKETS !!

Whaddup, H-Town people? I'm just swinging by to holler at my Houston pals (Mr. E, jwise, ken, TMU). I hope we have a good game tonight, and don't take this the wrong way, Rox fans...but I hope you lose.

Good luck tonight! Feel free to swing by the Spurs board if you please!

You're always welcome here, Sammy, even if your team is the epitome of evil (and great basketball).

I hope to get home in time for this one from beginning to end!

I tried, man; I really did. I tried to take the high road and be a peacemaker, and this verbal accosting is what I get.

The gloves are off. I'M TYPING IN ALL CAPS FOR THE DURATION OF THE EVENING. BOLD ALL-CAPS. IN RED.

THIS POST SHOWS HOW BOLD AND RED WITH ANGER I AM.

Let's hope that they're just getting the cold spell out of the way now.

Rockets have enough firepower that they should be able to keep going if one guy is cold.

It's these team cold spells that are just baffling.

Mr. E's Halftime Thoughts -

Incredible first quarter followed by a mediocre second quarter. The Rockets saving grace in that second quarter was that the Spurs were not playing great, either. Kind of concerned about Anderson's back; but if given the choice of not having him tonight or not having him later then the choice is obvious.

It would be nice to see the Rockets avoid those team-wide cold spells. Granted, this is up against the Spurs, and no one adjusts quite like Pop.

Harden had one of his best quarters to start the game. Now it is time to see him come out with aggressive offense and finish the game with two solid quarters of basketball.

It is nice to see so many Rockets fans in the stands! :lol:


GO ROCKETS!!!
