    After that letter of recommendation you had me write to Denny that got you the big raise? That's gratitude.

    I went to sleep at 8pm last night so I was up early today. I'm terribly bored and so I can't wait for this game. Big big game.

    Houston is on a back to back.

    Which means we will struggle with them.

    So what? These are the best athletes in the world. Back to back is a lame excuse.

    Easy to say from your couch. Ask "the best athletes in the world" if back-to-backs impact performance.

    So Beverley is making his debut against us tonight and then Holiday will also make his debut against us tomorrow? And Chandler Parsons had made his debut against us. I'm sensing a pattern.

    Houston basically plays the same style we do and with them on the second of a back to back, we should be able to win this one. We should win tomorrow's too. New Orleans is one of the worst teams, even on a back to back, they shouldn't be an issue.

    That's why he hasn't been teaching defense... it just shot him in the foot.

    I fear Houston is going to run circles around us tonight.

    That being said, there is no team I love beating more than the Rockets.
