    Sorry guys, school got the best of me:

    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">HOUSTON -- Rockets coach Jeff Van Gundy realizes that the numbers might be a little startling to some.

    The Rockets are second in the NBA in three-point field-goal attempts and are on pace to establish new franchise records for three-pointers made and attempted in a single season.
    </div>

    Preview courtesy of Rockets.com

    Prediction: Morrison's shot has been off, Yao will look to redeem himself, resulting in a Rocket W by 10+. We did lose twice to them last season, T-Mac and Co. will keep that on their minds.

    McGrady and Yao better dominate. And supporting cast needs to step it up a bit.

    EDIT: 40-19. OWNAGE!!!!

    ^I admit, Howard is not as bad as I made him out to be. He looked like crap without T-Mac and Yao all last season, but who doesn't? I still think he needs more consistency on his jumpshot (especially the open ones.)

    I still think Hayes is better than Howard and will continue to be better barring any injuries.

    Noooooo don't admit it yet....Ur makin it too easy, Howard had ONE good game. Atleast wait till the end of the season to admit u were totally wrong.

    Rock4Life and Durvasa are both right. Both Hayes and Howard contribute to the team differently. Hayes with his dirty work and Juwan with his jump shots, Juwan is kind of incosistent, but when he plays good, he is good. Both contribute at different time and differently. But guess what? Does it matter who contributes more? All I think matters is how they both contribute to Rockets and how they both help us win. It dont matter who contributes and how they contribute, as long as they contribute good enough to make us win games, that is all that matters. But for Hayes to be that young, you have to give a slight edge to Hayes. Both contribute well, and I think thats all that matter because its about Houston Rockets. We want to have good contributors and good players. I dont really care who's better as long as both contribute well and help us win.

    (Yeah, I know I used the word contribute a lot)

    lol not really. Howard has been known to be inconsistent since he has been with the Rockets. 3 games don't prove anything...especially if one of them was a loss to a mediocre team.

    Just 62 points allowed! I didn't watch the game but it seemed like a joy to watch for Rockets fans.

    Seems like TMac has settled into a pattern. Play well for a game, then stink it up. And it happens all over again.
