    Yeah, I am with you man. The Spurs save it for the playoffs. It never fails for the Spurs to lose interest after winning it all. That's why they never repeat. They are just so bored with it. That bodes well for the Rockets.

    I think though your argument is accurate and I also find the list of teams played by Rockets are comparable to the 4 teams you mentioned (and definitely no weak). However, I noted the Lakers fans are arguing that
    their stretch has more back to back games and I find that ridiculous.

    That's a great point! The chance of beating 20 teams consecutively (suppose the chance of beating each team is 90%) is(0.9*0.9*0.9*0.9*0.9*0.9*0.9*0.9*0.9*0.9*0.9*0.9*0.9*0.9*0.9*0.9*0.9*0.9*0.9*0.9) = 0.12 or 12%

    Not to mention that we only have 50% or even lower than 50% (such as the road game at Hornets) for at least 8 games during the streak, the acheivement is incredible!!
