No need to panic. We have looked bad, real bad. BUT we are sitting in a decent playoff seed. We do not need to blow anything up. It hurts to see the Rockets looking like this, but once trade season is done and keeping our core intact I believe we will go deep into the playoffs. Spoiler Who am I kidding we are screwed Spoiler but I still like to dream Kappa
deep as in we have lulled San Antonio and Golden State into a false sense of complacency. oh wait. damn autocorrect. I meant to say we have "lol'd" them . . .
I do think we can give the spurs a fight. Mainly because it's one of those teams that Harden for whatever reason goes absolutely beserk. This team need to turn it around today. The schedule will force them to or they will sink fast and will be looking at the lottery.
Maybe in April if things improve, but as things stand, we're a 4 game sweep for the Spurs. Maybe can push it to 5 games if the Spurs feel like it.
We are 7th seed solely due to an easy schedule. If the Rockets had a tougher schedule, they would easily be 6-20 and out of it.
No prob, I will quit stating facts and go back to sarcastic quips. Clearly that is all that can be done to garner respect around here.

True. But also true is this: The schedule the Rockets have played has been the easiest in the league. From here on out it gets much harder. Rockets have played games against the Kings, Sixers, Nuggets, Knicks, Nets, Lakers, etc. all in a row. That means the future schedule will be jam-packed with tough teams since we played all of those easy teams in a row. If the Rockets are 7th with a losing record after playing the easiest schedule in the league by far, then it isn't looking good for them.
Spoiler Lighten up breh! Your playing in the Interwebz ... Spoiler Fact: It's hard to take you serious with your username ... just keeping it real! ... ....... ....... .......
first i thought it was joking thread. but ok... an up-in-the-air 7th seed largely due to the easiest schedule so far,,, is "decent"? k. that's very inspiring indeed...
