lmao stop.. fallen back to earth... the Rockets still not even top 5 in the West right now. No one is falling back down to earth haha...

To his credit, nobody knows more than a rockets fan how much it matters not how you start, but how you finish. I think he's failing to realize that it's still December, and nothing matters right now.

Rox generally play their best after the ASG, so I'm not concerned. I don't know why you guys are so insecure to have to come post here all the time.

Really? http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/standings?season=2009&group=conference&seasontype=2&standType=standings
Last I checked top 3 was in top 5. Playing in the toughest division in basketball is a little harder than playing in one of the lousiest, and considering all the injuries, I'd say it's pretty impressive.
tonight, we take on Minnesota, in Minny, which we should win.

Also, rumor is Dikembe Mutombo, is on his way back to Houston. And we definately could use him.

HUGE GAME TONIGHT vs Cleveland, I think we take them down!!!
Artest/Battier can do enough to slow down LeBron, and TMac historically has torched cleveland.

I was thinking since it's CLE it would be on nat'l TV. Figures the one game I actually want to see featuring CLE is not on TV.

Now some good news, Francis traded! It's a pretty safe bet we'll be seeing Mt Motumbo in red any minute now, well rested for the second half of the season. The D was smothering when he was playing bigger minutes.

News: Rumored deal, 3 Way Trade, in which the rox would trade Carl Landry and i beileve Luther Head and get Chris Mihm to backup Yao, and get Chris Villanueva.

Its just a rumor, and isnt guaranteed.

Im unsure of what to think of this, i love Landry, and dont wanna see him traded.

I've heard this in Lakerland as well.

HAHAHA. No way that happens. Landry is a budding star and Mihm is a never was. Motumbo is coming back, and that will squash all this.
