    Has anyone heard or seen the preseason schedule for 02-03? I couldnt find it anywhere on the net. I assume they realeased it today, but who knows. It will be the first time we get to see Ming, even though the games are meaningless.

    The preseason schedule is usually released towards the end of the summer, not with the regular season schedule.

    The preseason schedule will come out in 2 weeks. I have no idea why they delay it like that.

    we usually play 6 preseason games, i think.

    of those, i would assume that we play the mavs twice, the spurs once, the grizz once, the jazz once, and the token eastern conference team once. :p

    I bet they throw New Orleans in the preseason mix.

    I was looking at the regular season schedule on nba.com and I noticed just in november alone the rocks are gonna be on national tv 3 times. Twice on ESPN and then on TNT. I dont think the Rockets were on national tv 3 times the entire season last year! Thank God for Yao Ming! :cool:

    The big question is whether there will be a preseason game in China. I hope they do.

    But then the national TV appearances taper off sharply to only 3 more the entire season.

    Hopefully the team will play well enough to add TV dates to the 6 already scheduled.

    I was looking at the Rockets season schedule and i noticed that their first home game is against the Raptors and ofcourse we all
    know that Dream is in that team! So i think that its gonna be a sell out that night b/c Yao Ming and Dream will be facing off!

    Same here. It has been a long time since I have anticipated a forthcoming season this much. I guess 94-95 would be the last time, after our first title.
