I hope you are right but after this stretch of games where the rockets have had little time to rest up and prepare for there next game, it is kinda tough to pick a winner in any game. I personally think the rockets are a better team and should pull off the victory, but should is a whole lot different than did. The Knicks are basically done this season, so they could see there role as Party Pooper. The Suns dont play tonight(i think atleast) so at worst the rockets will be tied for 8th, but if the Rockets win tonights game and the Lakers some how find a way to lose to the Clippers then the Rockets will be in the 7th seed looking up at the Jazz
I see this as a victory for the Rockets. NY doesnt have the inside presence at all to stop Yao Ming. The only concern for me is that they are playing at Madison Square Garden and Allan Houston and Latrell Sprewell might light it up in their own gym. I think it will be close but i project a high scoring game with the Rockets coming out on top.
Right after that post. James Posey Nailed a Three pointer, then got 2 more after a Knick turnover. Stevie Franchise gets his 2 FT's to go down. Then Yao gets his shot to go. 13-4 Rockets lead with 7:39 to go
Its early but the Rockets are really lighting up the nylon. Yao Ming has 4 points and 2 rebounds. James Posey leads the team with 5 points and 3 rebounds. Helping houston gain there 18-6 lead with 5:41 left in the 1st quarter. Timeout by the Knicks. Allen Houston leads the knicks with 4 points while Othello Harrington has 2rebs
Knicks with a mini comeback. 21-14 Houston with 3:11 left in the 1st Yao has taken the most shots for the Rockets. Its a good sign. He is getting the touches he needs
at the end of the 1st quarter. the rockets lead 32-22. Cuttino Mobley hit a 3-pointer with 18 seconds. Mobley leads the team with 12 points. while francis has 5 rebounds to lead the team. Allen Houston has upped his score to 9 points, Harrington still leads the team in rebounds with 3. Good game so far. Glad the rockets have been able to stay on a roll for so long
with 8 minutes left to go. the rockets are still relying on mobley's key shooting. mobley know has 22 points as the rockets lead 42-30. Francis is out of the game but still leads the rockets with 5 rebounds
45-37 rockets till lead the knicks with 5:33 left in the half. knicks have caught up 2 points since the quarter.Cuttino Mobley is now out of the game but leads the rockets with 22 points. since early in the game francis has lead the the team in rebounds with 5. Yao goes to the Line 1 is good. and number 2 is as well. 47-37
yao quickly get 9 points for a total of 13. 54-41. with 3:02 left in the half. Timeout Houston. Mobley came back in the game but has yet to take a shot. And Francis got 1 more rebound for a grand total of 6.
knicks made a comback to take the lead down to 6. 56-50 Cuttino mobley has 22 points still. Francis got rebound number 7. and the rockets are still winning. Allen Houston has 16 points while Harrington has 6 rebounds
Houston 32 24 3 59 New York 22 28 5 55 Three by James Posey Stops the Knicks momentum coming out of the half. 8:44 left in the game.
knicks take the lead down to 3 points. The rockets better get some momentum back becasue the Knicks could explode and take the lead. Griffin is the only starter not in double figures
10:26 LEFT IN 4TH Houston 32 24 13 4 73 New York 22 28 20 2 72 Francis has the double-double. Ming has played well. They need the momentum that they had at the start of the game.
Houston 32 24 13 12 81 New York 22 28 20 8 78 5:58 left in the game. franchise has taken 15 shots from the line
The Mavs lost, Rockets win, rub it in my face Clyde u deserve. Houston been playin good wit Cuttino at the helm.
