Does anyone still doubt we get the two seed (at minimum)....

With Kawhi missing games and Denver not being great, Rockets might be the favorites for #2.

 

Rivers, MDA etc all said last night #2 seed is the goal to finish the regular season.

 

I thought the Clippers would be more dominant than they have but Kawhi is such a beast in the playoffs so they are still a major factor.

Lakers I don’t actually worry about. I think the Rox can handle them. Denver, Utah, uh no chance for them. After that it’s just the Bucks.

If we can hit our 3s at a reasonable clip and WB can make up for Hardens patented playoff disinterested games we can do this.

 

Jay Williams burner account?

 

The Rockets control their own destiny with regard to the Clippers. They're only a game back and host them next Thursday with a chance to clinch the season series. I don't know if they can keep pace with them the rest of the way. I look at the Rockets' remaining schedule and I see 6-7 games that are probably losses. With the Clippers, I could say the same about 5-6 of their remaining games. Obviously Kawhi's load management could change that, but I don't know which games he'll sit out.

The good news is the Clippers and Nuggets play each other 2 more times, so that only helps the Rockets.

 

9-10 man rotation needs to be stretched even more?

 

Stretched four minutes more

 

Nitpicking IMO.

 

Hopefully Green and DMC makes this a non issue

 

I wish the Roxs would have a better record right now. Looking back, they lost so many easy games your like wtf but, if we had a better record they might not have upgraded with ROCO and Green and put themselves in a better position to win it all, sooo... I'm feeling pretty good.

Go Rockets

The Shocked Look on Stephen A at the end of this vid lol

 

Anyone wanna revisit the missed Butler signing ... where would we be if that happened ?? Would we have the team we have right now ?

 

We're 6 games behind the Lakers so I doubt we'll get the 1 seed... especially with how much ref bias there is in their games.

I watched their vs Boston game the other day and it was just absurd how many calls Lakers were getting in their favor down the stretch.

 

We may match well against the Lakers. Clippers' perimeter D is a question, Leonard, PatBev, and PG.

Don't mind the Jazz or Nuggets in playoffs. Thunder and Mavs could be dangerous to us.

 

Over 40% again from 3. Is the small ball helping this or are we just hot in this stretch?

I want to see what small ball looks like when the Rockets are struggling from deep.

 

Why?

Rockets have too many shooters and much more space for everyone to go cold at same time.

Refer to Knicks game, role players could not hit the ocean. Rockets still win.

 

MIke Malone, coach of the year would outcoach Mike DAntoni in his sleep.

You know cp3 would be trying to get 40 points with assists.

You know the mavs in Dallas would pull out all stops with Pozingis and company.

 

All the teams you mentioned will still loose imo...time will tell
