it wasn't long ago (exactly a week or so) where EVERYONE was at a all time high and giddy about the rocket's run for the playoffs. now we get in a slide and everyone is talkin' about next season. i say we're still in this race and we'll get back on track tonight. with hakeem back, hopefully we can win some of you bandwagoners back (which by the way wouldn't hurt too much to be a little more positive when our team is down..and u guys know who you are). it's a long shot...but it's still a shot. let's just take one game at a time....so let me start it off: Houston : 95 Utah : 89 ------------------ "My initial response was to sue her for defamation of character, but then I realized that I had no character." - Sir Charles after hearing Tonya Harding proclaim herself "the Charles Barkley of figure skating".
Rockets 100 Jazz 94 I'm trying to stay positive too. ------------------ "Stop your grinnin' and drop your linen" -Hudson
hmm.. spazz were beaten by the rockets 133-99 at 27th march 2001 , hakeem scored 42 points and got 14 boards along with 5 assist .. but unlikely , it was on playstaion and Q8 Rocket coached for the rockets !! this should come true !! hehehehe ok let's predict ... it will be 97-92 rockets ------------------ the biggest houston Rockets fan in Q8
...if somebody would've told me, last April, that we would have been this good they'd be a damn fool liar!! ------------------ C-son --------------------- Dream on
Jazz 105-87. Hehe just kidding. Karl Malone, who is still pissed from last night, throws an elbow to Olajuwon's face except this time he gets ejected. Jazz fall apart and Rockets win 92-86. ------------------
Look at our season especially the second half. Every time something bad happens something better comes up to make us believe. These Rockets have ended losing streaks to teams and even though our losing streak to the floppers isn't that long I think it's time to show them what we got. Sure the jazzholes want to win this won and it won't be easy for our guys, but it can be done if a few things happen. Wakko's Keys To The Game (Brought to you by Trojan Condoms, America's #1 shot blocker.) 1. Come out with intensity and don't play catch-up basketball. 2. Defense - Don't allow easy baskets. 3. Play smart - Low turnovers, don't force shots and move the ball, especially to Dream. 4. Rebounds - If Dream gets quality minutes that's about 12 to 13, Steve grabs about 8 or 9, Cat gets about 7, Mo gets about 5 and Cato gets around -6. 5. Stay out of foul trouble - these are the ultimate floppers in the NBA and The Rockets will have to play the refs tonight, PERIOD. Don't get T'ed up (Steve and Cat.) 6. If possible lock Cato in the locker room or give him the wrong plane ticket. Either way the Rockets are good enough to beat these FOOS. They just have to give 150%. ------------------
LOL My prediction: Rocks 107, Jazz 95. A three pointer barrage downs Utah early in the 3rd. ------------------ The season's almost over...and I still really need that keg of Pepto-Bismol.
The sun will come out tomarrow. ------------------ Cuttino: When you have thousands of people telling you, 'You can do it, you can do it,' it helps you out an awful lot.
