I have been listining to you guys for months ragging on the rockets. This is my first post, and I know we will make the playoffs. Yes we are in a very tough conference, but we are better then the sonics, timberwolvs , nuggets, grizzlies, warriors, and clippers. In the next month or so we will be just as good as the kings and the Mavericks. We just need more expierence and we need shandon to step up and put up numbers like steve, and mobley. Soon we will have cato and a very talented young ball club. ------------------ Steve and Mobley will not lead this team to the championship for years to come
Minny i dont know mabye as good as record as Sacra i dunno maybe? ------------------ "Its True Its True"
i wouldnt say its a given we will make it Automatically IN portland lakers suns jazz spurs kings VERY likely to get in Wolves Mavs maybe will make it in sonics rockets not likely but a chance nuggets thats 10 teams that r playoff hopeful. 8 get in. i'd say its 50/50 the rockets get in. the clipps, grizz, warriors wont have a shot ------------------ --TEX [This message has been edited by TeXaSalsa (edited December 04, 2000).]
If the Mavs are very likely, then the Rockets are too. Tuesday's game means a lot. ------------------ If I make this shot, the Rockets will win tonight. If I miss, they might still win, but I doubt it. If I make two in a row, Florida's votes will actually count.
I think that the rockets are better then both the mavericks, and the timberwolves. they both have a superstar but we have a deeper team with more athletism and we have one thing that all the teams dont have RUDY! ------------------ Steve and Mobley will lead this team to the championship for years to come
And what happens to the Kings? They disappear so we can get a play-off spot? ------------------ Miggidy Markell says: 1. Eastcoast is da sh*t 2. Rockets rule 3. Hip/Hop is dope 4. Buy the new Ruff Ryders album! Miggidy Markell is watching Stay STRAPPED & WATCH ya back or be Assimilated.
If the Rockets can get on a winning streak, and go into the new year about 5-8 games above .500, the Rockets will make the playoffs. We need to beat teams like the Spurs, Sonics, Kings, Lakers, and Mavericks this month. That is a tall order, but quite likely if the Rockets can play like they actually CARE about winning. ------------------ If I make this shot, the Rockets will win tonight. If I miss, they might still win, but I doubt it. If I make two in a row, Florida's votes will actually count.
If it's between us and the sonics, I like our chances. I think we're more talented and we have better chemsitry. ------------------ "There are two players carrying the Rockets right now. Hakeem and Olajuwon." Isiah Thomas
I think people just want to save money. ------------------ Sometimes you gotta do the next best thing!
Locks: Lakers Blazers Spurs Jazz Near Locks: Kings Suns Probables: T-Wolves Sonics Next in line: Mavs Rockets I picked us to finish 10th in the west and that seems realistic. We could finish 4th or higher in the east but the western conference is just damn tough. ------------------ Mmmmmmm. Sacrelicious.
Jeff has it down, but put the Kings as a lock. ------------------ Sometimes you gotta do the next best thing!
IMO, the Rockets need: 1) To have a few winning streaks of >3 games. 2) To average <15 turnovers/game. 3) Rebounds. Then we'll make the playoffs. ------------------ "The world is filled with mediocrity; rise above it. Distinguish yourself!!!"
I disagree, this is what I think will happen... Locks: Lakers Blazers Spurs Kings Near Locks: Jazz Suns Probables: Rockets T-Wolves Next in line: Sonics Mavs I think we will pick up our play sometime soon and then start playing up to our potential. Utah will drop towards the end of the season and Sacramento will climb the ladder. Because of Seattle's lackadaisical start they will have a hard time making up the wasted effort and Mavericks will start to cool down. ------------------ http://clubs.yahoo.com/clubs/houstonrockets2000
-Locks- Blazers Lakers Jazz Spurs Almost Locks Suns Kings Mavs 11-6 can only get worse... It's their destiny WOlves 9-8 To dependant upon Garnnett. Sonics- 8-10 Nate McCmillan is changing that losing record in a hurry. Beginners luck or great coach? Rockets- 9-8 A few changes can make this team damn good. Denver 9-8 read mavs.... I see the Sonics taking the 7th spot and a dog fight for the 8th with the Rockets prevailing ------------------

Heres my take Locks 1. LA 2. San Antonio 3. Jazz/Blazers 5. Suns Next in Line 6. Kings 7. Wolves/ Mavs/ Rockets(we have just as good a chance of both of these teams) Fighting 10. Sonics 11. Nuggets(sorry nugzfan, i just dont see your team beating any of the teams ahead of them) 12.Grizz(young teams can surprise and this one looks really good),
The Rockets have been playing many tough teams right now. So soon they should start getting some easier games against easy opponents so they can rack up some wins and gain ground on the playoffs. ------------------ \| ||/ -ô¿ô- *(-)*
thanks for at least mentioning us though. thats all i ask. ------------------ the nuggets suck...i know, i know!
