Well, its that time again, the NBA Season is upon us, and the Rockets are poised to make a run at the title, there armed and ready to roll. Here's the Training Camp Roster: 11 C Yao Ming 15 C/PF Joey Dorsey 55 C Dikembe Mutombo 14 PF Carl Landry 4 PF Luis Scola 44 PF Chucky Hayes 96 SF Ron Artest 31 SF Shane Battier 19 SF Mike Harris 1 SG Tracy McGrady 17 SG Brent Barry 2 SG Luther Head 12 PG Rafer Alston 0 PG Aaron Brooks 3 PG Steve Francis --- PG D.J. Strawberry and then theres some guys Named Marcus Campbell and Von Wafer, they round out the roster anyway, the only thing worrying me is 1.) Health and 2.) Backup PG spot, is Brooks ready or will Francis hold up.

Just for once I'd like the Rockets to win in Utah, we seem to be able to win everywhere but there...Players are surely now starting to let it affect this in their heads...I know its starting to take a toll on me as a fan...

We simply do not match up well against this team...Not without another true scorer at least...Oh well...Playoffs are going to be interesting...

We'll be alright, we beat Utah twice this year and lost once in a close game.
I really don't care who we play in the 1st round.

Man don't p**s off the Laker Mod they own all the bragging rights against the Jazz.

And yes it was a great win for Utah but they need to step up on this road trip.

LOL...You think I'm a Jazz fan??? Are you kidding me???
I bleed Rocket Red...& yes the Lakers are great, but IMO the Lakers are one-man wrecking machine, if they'd lose Kobe, like we lost T-Mac, they would struggle to make the platoffs, same goes for Cavs without James, ect...Thats why the Rockets have been so impressive this year, without its main player & still playoff bound. Not many other teams could do that...

Moderator or not, Laker fan or not, I'm not backing down to Mr. Stoney....
Bring it on, now that I know he's Laker fan, makes me dislike them even more...

At least we have the 49ers in common...

This from the guy who just happened to wander into Other Sports after 2 years.

I've been a Laker fan for over 28 years, bud. I'll be around.

We'll see if you are the one that is around when your rockets take their eventual early exit from the playoffs. And just FYI, you seriously are embarrassing yourself by even trying to compare TMac to Kobe.

I don't think he is comparing them, but we all know that if the lakers lost Ko-ME they would struggle in the west.
