6:42	ChronicleSports - Welcome to tonight's live game commentary. Fran Blinebury will be on shortly to discuss the Rockets-Grizzlies showdown.

7:03	Fran Blinebury - Well, it was good while it lasted. Remember all of that perfect health the Rockets had for one game in a row? The streak ends. Aaron Brooks is out tonight with the flu. He tried to warm up before the game, but could not go.

7:04	[Comment From Jackie Rivers] What do you think about the Rockets chances of getting out of the first round of the payoffs.

7:04	Fran Blinebury - About the same as the last few seasons.

7:04	[Comment From chris] hey fran when we play bad teams does it seem like there are more isos than team play

7:04	Fran Blinebury - No. I think they just often play down to the level of the competition. It affects their overall game.

[Comment From TheRealCrucial]
Lets Hope we some good ball movement again & see Tmac drive to the hole & take midrange jumpers. Im more then sure he'll be passing the ball to yao so Im not worried about that, especially since he is our team's best passer. I hope to see yao put up 20-25 shots & no more then 2-3 turnovers

7:05	[Comment From Daryll] Who will get Aaron Brooks pt in the pg position?

7:05	Fran Blinebury - Most likely Brent Barry moves up.

7:05	[Comment From John] Fran, Justice said the Scola brings defense and McGrady said he was a great defensive player. What makes Scola a good defense player?

7:06	Fran Blinebury - Well, I don't think Scola is a "great" defensive player. He's not a "lockdown guy." There have been times when he's come of the lineup due to the defense. What he brings every night is energy and hustle and a willingness to mix it up with anybody.

7:06	[Comment From Guest] fran, do you expect yao's scoring will go down based on grizzlies big men, gasol and milicic

7:07	Fran Blinebury - Do I think he'll score less than last night's 28 points? Probably.

7:07	[Comment From Alek,Macedonia] well could this be possible,seems Rox cant get 2 games in a row with full roster healthy

7:07	Fran Blinebury - Well, late update, Alek. They're not all healthy. Aaron Brooks out tonight with the flu. But they still should be able to get 2 in a row.

7:07	[Comment From Batigol] It's only the flu, atleast no one's broken a leg

7:07	Fran Blinebury - It's early.

7:07	[Comment From oilman] Is head available

7:08	Fran Blinebury - No. Luther Head just got out of the walking boot he's been wearing since he last played on Jan. 10. Not ready to come back yet.

7:08	[Comment From Batigol] yao will have more than 3 TOs
