OK/NO v Hou Damn that was a good game! I don't care about wins/losses in preseason, but wow I enjoyed that game. I love the enthusiasm in OK city. Everyone looked good today, Wesley is looking a lot better. One thing that reminded me of last season though. I remember Houston was up on NO (if not them then Charlotte) before the 2nd half started by 20 or so, and then the Rockets blew the lead and lost. That is what happened today, and I really don't want to see that happening this season. You know, blowing big leads (especially to lower ranked teams like the Knicks). One day the Rockets beat SA, the next day they have their as**s handed to them by the Bobcats. If the Rockets can play consistently, and cut down on these losses to lower ranked teams, then I think our team will easily win 55 games, right? Preseason: 6-2 Season starts November 2, CANT WAIT, GO ROCKETS WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO~
I agree completely, great game. Tracy Mcgrady didn't play which disapointed me because I love watching him play.
it was a good game but the Rockets still look sloppy on offense (13 TOs in the 2nd half) although it was their defense that lost it for them this game (allowing NO to shoot 47% and 39% on 3s)...they also had some silly mistakes like too many offensive fouls...oh well, I'm still excited about the season opener!
yao got no love in the fourth. everyone was just shooting around. yao is suppose to be the 2nd option (1st in this game because tmac is out)... what were they thinking...

Swift and Mutombo were also on the bench. It was Ryan Bowen replacing Juwan Howard when Howard fouled out. It is the duo of Bowen and Lonny Baxter playing out the fourth quarter. Rockets did not have a inside present so PJ Brown had a field day in the fourth.</font>

Talking about NO, wow, there was a big riot in my school, like 50 people. It was NO vs Houston. And then Houston vs Houston. Tmac missed that game and might even miss the season opener. Hopefully he wont.

NO looked like they won game 7 in the playoffs
