Lots of contrary indicators make me like this play...Rafer Alston is back for Houston...playing great against Washington isn't a big deal, but at least the Houston offense now has a means to distribute the ball and make itself less of a McGrady or nothing group...the Hughes injury is big because no one else can create shots...Z gets them in rhythm or not at all...Newble had zero points in 25 minutes getting most of Hughes minutes.
not really sure how the rockets will play in this game tonight. but, i think we all agree that this is really a must win game if they want a shot to make the playoffs. because, that west division is no cake walk.
