    I want to watch CP3 play so badly, but MDA needs to do the right thing here and rest that man.

    If we want to talk about winning 60 games, we need to win this game, no excuses. These are the types of games 60 win teams win.

    Rest CP3, Gordon showed he can handle PG. Troy can play some! Rockets better not Drop this one

    I don't think this is a trap .

    This will be a completely different style of game . Or at the least it can be .

    We can / will have to play our bigs more this game ... Unless we want to wear our smalls out .

    Chris should sit and it's a b2b , not an easy game by any stretch .

    Even scrubs can go off if you don't respect them . We will have to bring it

    I don't think the Rockets will take this one lightly this early in the season. Now if they were to reel off 7 or 8 wins in a row to start the year, then I could see them buying into their own hype and taking a crappy opponent lightly.

    I think it's going to be tough even with the rockets taking it seriously .

    This early in the season , we definitely don't have our legs fully underneath us.

    It's not like at the end of the season when you're worn down ... But it's like you haven't fully caught your stride yet . Not fully in season shape .

    I thought tonight was the Rox 1st game. Imagine my surprise this morning, when I checked bspn for the Astros' box score (yes, I'm a glutton for punishment) & found that the Rox had beaten the Warriors in Oakland. Wednesday 10/18/17 will be a great day in Houston sports history when the Astros win this afternoon & the Rox win again tonight. 3 wins in 1 day!! o_O

    About tonight, I don't want to see CP3 on the court & I want to see at least a 9 man rotation. MDA's killing me with his 8 man rotations! :( Outside of that, I like his coaching abilities.

    We got Nene saved up and ready... let's go get our 2nd win of the season.

    Gawd Dang that win last night felt good! Wait until CP actually gets comfortable and all the new pieces on the roster get familiar with each other.

    CP3 & Beard averaging a combined 20+ assists every night is the NBA's new big problem.
