    Rox lost by 9 points last time without TMac (Nov 20, 2005). This time with TMac, a much-improved Yao, a better Swift I would predict Rox win by 13 points.

    Peja will drop 50 points if you leave him wide open...

    Rox wins because JVG will be fired rite before the game and then John Barry take over!

    We HAVE to win this game. The Pacers just lost at home to the Knicks. The KNICKS!!! AT HOME!!!

    With O'neal out, they have absolutely no inside presence, and Yao is rolling up Hakeem-esque numbers since the All Star Break. If we lose this game, with or without Mcgrady, it might be time to pack it in because it's just not our year.

    Even if we don't have McGrady, let's grab this win and focus on the Spurs. Let's beat San Antonio at least once out of these 2 upcoming games with them. For top seed teams we need Tracy. Let's hope he's good to go by Sunday.


    And someone please tell me, :confused: is Sura even going to be back in time for the crucial games the next 6 weeks ?

    Pacers will be angry and their pride hurt after losing to the Knicks. Even though O'Neal is out for them they can be more dangerous throwing down three bombs while still playing defense.

    It's a must win game for the Rockets.

    Anyways


    Yao- 35 pts 13rbs

    I gota feelin roxs a startin to realize that yao is the star of this team,
    Belive me I LOVE T-MAC . but yao is the goto guy, i mean comon guys how can u disagree with his play lately. Sure you want t-mac back, and believe me i hope he goes bonkers and hits 30+ points, because we'll need it for a playoof run. But honestly Yao is the most consistant player we have right now and... damn it GIVE HIM THE BALL!

    I love rox- no hate baby
    Yao- continues his 30+ performances
    T-mac- 30+
    Swift- been playing great lately lets hope he keeps it up
    Everyone else- Please PLAY WELL!

    GO ROX

    I say Yao swallows all of the Pacers and then some! Nobody on the Pacers can defend Yao.

    I never bet against the Rocks, but they must give Yao more support than they did in the T-Wolves game. If the team as a whole shoots free throws and field goals like that game, the contest with the Pacers won't be pretty -- and more importantly it won't put us the W column.

    On an upbeat note, the Conseco Arena is heated. I think the Minnesota ownership likes to save on their heating bills, which may have affected the shooting for both teams. Did anybody else see the frost on their fans' collective breath? ;)
