    No Yao. I think we should re-activate Taft so he can throw a Kobe elbow to T-Mac and we'll for sure secure the win.

    I'm kidding (in case there are Rockets fans visiting).

    I predict another big game by Troy Murphy and I am hoping Dunleavy will be in the lineup at the end of the game, which would mean he scores more than 10 pts.[​IMG]

    <div align="center">Golden State Warriors (16-14) vs. Houston Rockets (10-17)

    Golden State Warriors Starting Lineup
    [​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG]
    PG: Baron Davis
    SG: Jason Richardson
    SF: Mike Dunleavy
    PF: Troy Murphy
    C: Ike Diogu
    Head Coach: Mike Montgomery

    Warriors Keys To the Game

    - Back to back big games from the wings. Jason Richardson and B-Diddy had huge games last night against the Mavs. If they can do it again, the Warriors most likely will win.
    - Shut down T-Mac! T-Mac is likely to take the big burden for the Rockets with a Yao-less Rockets. He most likely will try to blow up for 30 points. The Warriors need to contain him tonight to come out with a win

    Warriors Sixth Men:

    [​IMG][​IMG]

    PG/SG: Derek Fisher
    C: Adonal Foyle

    Warriors Notes:


    None



    Houston Rockets Starting Lineup

    [​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG]
    PG: Luther Head
    SG: David Weasley
    SF: Tracy McGrady
    PF: Juwan Howard
    C: Dikembe Mutumbo
    Head Coach: Jeff Van Gundy

    Rockets Keys To Game

    - Shut down Warriors wings. Baron Davis and Jason Richardson combined for 66 points against Dallas last night. Jason Richardson is coming off back-to-back 30 point games. If they can shut them down, they will have a huge advantage.
    - Hustle points. Last time the Warriors and the Rockets faced each other, Ryan Bowen had many hustle points from offensive rebounds and going for loose balls. If they do that tonight, it will give the Rockets an edge.

    Rockets Sixth Men:

    PF/C: Sromile Swift
    SF: Ryan Bowen

    Without Yao, the Warriors are in good shape if they just play hard, with energy and act desperate as if they lost in Dallas last night and they need a win here to avoid an 0-3 trip (Spurs coming up.) I think the W's backcourt can dominate if they stay in the flow and do not just start jacking up shots without running the offense.

    The Warriors are at their best if they trust the offense and run it because the offense is geared to the guards and they just have to let the others touch the ball before they shoot. That keeps the flow, makes the other team play defense, and lets the bigs touch the ball.

    Back to back game is always tough, but I hope they can carry last night's momentum and beat Houston. Houston abused our front court with Yao, but since he is injured, and their point guards are reduced to Head, we have a good chance to extend our winnng streak to 3...

    Looks like T-Mac just rolled his left ankle due to Ike bumping into him from the side. That's gotta be a bummer for the Rockets...good for us, but I do hate to see injuries, especially since that's happened to me way too many times.

    Yeah, havent seen him in a long time. Does anyone know where Adonal is? Did he get injured? Taft is still looking good, hes a damn good on-ball defender in the paint.

    I don't think that foyle is in the bench but if he is then that would have to be some strange substitution from Monty.

    Foul them? Rockets have no time out left.

    Whew. We dodged two 3 pts from TMac. Thought second one was going in.

    One more FT from Murphy and the game is over...
