System Play for Saturday - 21-2 streak!

Even though the Rockets got outrebounded last night, they still made the key plays down the stretch to beat the Warriors. (Plus, we had a 4 point cushion and were never really in jeopardy)

Well, the Rockets are going from last night's win against the 2nd worst rebounding team in the NBA, to tonight's matchup against the worst rebounding team in the NBA - Phoenix.

So we're on them again -

Houston +7 over Phoenix


A little concern over the back-to-back, particularly since McGrady had such a big game last night - but not going to question the system. Plus, one of the biggest cures for a back-to-back is playing Phoenix and their no-defense style.

Good luck!

Anyone know why this game is off the board in some places?

Only thing I can figure (as to why it was temporarily off the board) is that its due to Raja Bell being out. But we knew that. I always worry when i see a Houston game come on and off the board that we're gonna find out McGrady is out.

As long as that isn't the case - I love this game. The Suns lose their best - and practically their ONLY - defensive player.

Statistically speaking, it's not even close.
But those two teams are definitely in the bottom 5.

I'm getting more excited about this game. Last time they played Raja Bell did a great job on McGrady, but the Rockets still won.

Everyone's getting excited about the fact that the Suns have been putting it together, winning 6 straight - but look who they've beat! Memphis, GS, Sacramento, Seattle, Portland & San Antonio.

Throw the SA game aside for a minute, as this game was very close and the Spurs missed about 6 point-blank layups in the final minutes to blow the game.

3 of the other 5 games are against teams in the bottom 6 in rebounding (Memphis-5th, Golden State-2nd, Portland-6th) Another was against Seattle and their cast of CBA players - and the other was against Sacramento - not exactly a juggernaut.

The Rockets are just the kind of team the Suns struggle with - tough, defensive, rebounders. Nowhere in this streak has my mind been changed.
