    This was my home team 4 years ago, so I still follow them and this team if not kept off the glass will be deadly, Asik has to play today.

    But will be a fun game

    A loss here might mean a serious losing streak. We have to win this.

    I can't stomach myself to watch this after last night. We will probably win but I hate how the rockets latch you on and build it all up for a disappointment :(

    Pistons vs Rockets Game Preview - December 21, 2013
    Regular Season Game #29
    By NOEY KUPCHAN
    The Houston Rockets opened the weekend with an embarrassing performance against one of the NBA's best teams.

    The Detroit Pistons let one slip away against a mediocre opponent. Houston tries to bounce back from a 33-point defeat Saturday night when it visits the Pistons, losers in eight of nine in the series.

    After closing November with a five-game winning streak, the Rockets (17-10) dropped to 4-5 this month with a 114-81 rout at the hands of Indiana on Friday. Houston, averaging 106.1 points to rank second in the league, was limited to its lowest output of the season.

    Six of us are going to the game tonight, we'll be cheering for the Rockets of course :D Too bad Jeremy probably won't return this game, but we should be able to pull out a win nonetheless. Detroit has a formidable front court, but they have no outside shooting whatsoever.

    This game gonna be ugly. Piston isn't terrible, they beaten some quality teams(Heats,Pacers) and went to overtime against Portland. People underestimating them.

    Keep the losing. I'm getting some good laughs seeing clutchfans make excuses for our pathetic coaching.

    No one is underestmating them...but the Rockets have shown the ability to shake off a bad loss and respond with a solid win. The Pacers outclassed the Rockets, and the Rockets will respond...Especially James Harden.

    Tonight will be a maturity check for the Rockets. I will be very disappointed if they let the Pacers game negatively affect their play.

    Harden out tonight. We need the bench to have a really good night. Aaron Brooks needs to score at least 20.

    Well they have Jennings who is a bigger ball hog than Harden.
