Texas Showdown tomorrow....

[phyzik]

Who wins?

Rockets?

Spurs?




Fans (or those that called it) of the winning team, feel free to bump the thread after the game.... :toast

[NuGGeTs-FaN]

Spurs.

They are starting to roll and the Rockets are starting to fade

[Culburn369]

I hope the Rockets kick their ass from start to finish.

[phyzik]

I hope the Rockets kick their ass from start to finish.

....Admit it, you know teams are scared of the Spurs if (granted, IF) they put it together, including your Lakers.

Spurs are scary looking on paper. I hope they put it together to at least give the Lakers a good run.

I think it will be more than that, but thats just my opinion.

[FkLA]

I hope the Rockets kick their ass from start to finish.

Someone's starting to get worried about the Spurs.

Tee hee.

[Culburn369]

I'm scared/worried of everybody. Anything can happen in sports.

[NuGGeTs-FaN]

Of course. If the Spurs are healthy, then they are the #1 team in the West. That is why Laker fans are scurrrred

[phyzik]

I'm scared/worried of everybody. Anything can happen in sports.

Just like going through a weak western playoffs with EVERY team they faced having key players injured.

tee, hee.

[Culburn369]

Just like going through a weak western playoffs with injured teams gets you a championship.


tee, hee.

Wouldn't have it any other way.

[phyzik]

I dont know, I think Denver can take out either the Spurs or Lakers.... I can honestly say I dont want the Spurs facing them in the Playoffs despite our past success. I hope your team and the Lakers match up. We will finish off whatever team survives that battle. :toast

[Culburn369]

We will finish off whatever team survives that battle. :toast

Contingent upon utopia being achieved first/no injuries, et al & etc.:rolleyes

[phyzik]

Wouldn't have it any other way.

I think Im starting to understand you Cul. :toast

[phyzik]

Contingent upon utopia being achieved first/no injuries, et al & etc.:rolleyes

Exactly.

Tee, hee.

[phyzik]

Back on topic though, Cul.

Care to make a score prediction?

Me?

Spurs 116
Rockets 104

[ElNono]

The Rockets are hurt after losing to Dallas. We're 7-2 at home, but 0-4 on the road.
We have no chance...
I'll be surprised if we even make it a close game...
Good game Rockets, enjoy the victory...

I think we made some strides on the road though, that game at Dallas couldve gone either way. Although I agree its going to be a tough game the Spurs still arent the same team on the road that they are at home...hoping the Spurs pull off a close one but wouldnt be surprised if we take a loss.

Spurs 102
Rockets 98

I never do predictions. I do hopin' & prayin'.

[ElNono]

We all know the Rockets are the better team. We simply have no chance.
I just hope they don't beat us by 20+...

[badfish22]

Rockets are still emotionally recovering from the ass whoopin the Mavs put on them.

Spurs should get this one.

[tlongII]

The Spurs should win since the Rockets have shot their wad and will now struggle to stay at .500.

[tlongII]

The Spurs still suck though and have no chance of making any noise in the playoffs. The Blazers will take out the Lakers.

kill yourself

[Trainwreck2100]

I think its a perfect storm....

just like that jazz game @ utah earlier this year

[pauls931]

Hard calll, I'll go with the Rockets, even after I lost all my vbookie cash on them vs Dallas.

[Sotongball21]

Spurs win 110 -100

Hope to get our first away win.
Mmmm :toast

[Chieflion]

Definitely not a high score. Should be a slugfest. 89-84 for a Spurs away win. I hope.

[Lars]

Rockets are too hard to predict right now, its like a roller coaster. Some days the ball movement is amazing and the shots are falling, others they have little to no effort and we struggle mightly. An average talent team thats all hustle looks pretty bad when they have no energy.

We usually struggle against long athletic teams that block alot of our shots, so in that regard we have an advantage because the Spurs arent very athletic. Whats the injury report for the Spurs btw?

The key factor tonight is whether or not the Spurs get back on defense quick enough to stop the run. If its anything like the last ten games or so, I expect the Rockets to jump out to an early double digit lead and then the Spurs making an adjustment at halftime and coming back to win the game.

Should be an entertaining game, nonetheless, good luck to SA.

[Double-Up]

Nice reversal jinx there. Spurs have more talent than we do, game can go either way.

[Double-Up]

Whatever troll, Blazer's have been irrelevant for what 30 years? :lol

[Culburn369]

Rockets & Spurs dom's knitted in a fine 69.

I'm gonna rips one of their fandoms a brand new asshole tonite.

[Allanon]

After the woodshed beating by the Mavs, the Rockets are looking to bounce back..

Rockets take this game.

Cully does have a point, regardless of who wins tonight, it's good for the Lakers. :lol

How many times have your predictions went against the Spurs winning this season?

[ffadicted]

Money on the spurs, we're used to being a great road team, the wins gotta come eventually.

Plus it looks like we're on a roll

[Culburn369]

Cause you're a troll w/ no life. Must be fun doing this shit everyday of your child molestin' life. "tee hee" that you fucking prick...

I'm havin' the time of me life.:lobt2:

[Allanon]

How many times have your predictions went against the Spurs winning this season?

95% of the time? :lol

Too many injuries, too many new guys. I expected the Spurs to be .500 after watching them play the first 3 games or so. They're .540 now.

Although I do see the Spurs having a great December...probably 70% win ratio.

[Double-Up]

Cully does have a point, regardless of who wins tonight, it's good for the Lakers. :lol

But the same could be said for any team that plays each other in the West.

[Allanon]

But the same could be said for any team that plays each other in the West.

I agree with that. I love it when good West teams battle it out...good entertainment and good for the Lakers.

[Culburn369]

It do not get better than this. I want the Spurs to lose, cuz they need a good red assin', but, Houston losin' ain't much of a let down. They're pretty sensitive to snut bustin'.

[Allanon]

Ariza tearing Dick a new hole.

[Culburn369]

Jesus Christ, Houston, don't you guys have any pride whatsoever?

& Ariza, he ain't shit on a shingle.

[Culburn369]

Ariza=f'k up.

[Allanon]

Houston just doesn't have a close out guy ... just like last year.

Gotta admit the Spurs are good at closing out games.

[deL!]

Definitely not a high score. Should be a slugfest. 89-84 for a Spurs away win. I hope.

very close prediction my friend

:toast

[Indazone]

Very close prediction. But Spurs vs Rockets never goes over 100 pts for either team.

[ElNono]

Good to know jinxing still works sometimes... :lol

Good game :toast

Dam, you got it almost right.
