The last 2 previous games they have beaten a healthy Heat and Lakers squad. Probbaly the best two teams in the league by far. Anyway I thought it was ridiculous call by the refs to eject 4 players in the last 5 seconds!
How did you reach the conclusion that the Lakers and Heat are the two best teams in the league 'by far'? San Antonio and Boston both have better records. Orlando has been fantastic since their trades and Dallas was playing better than both teams before Dirk went down.
Its no fluke test I can assure you that! The clippers are legitimately beating this team's down the stretch through shear talent!
A couple of nights before that, they did manage to beat the Warriors... so that's kind of a wash... ----------------- Rockets: 18-23 Clippers: 14-25 We have more competition for that 8th spot, I mean they're are only 3 games behind us(and their young and improving), I'm just saying...

I guess you aren't aware the Lakers had a 7-game win streak going into today. So maybe this is a surprise.
The Clippers beat the Lakers and Heat and win 30-something games for the season does not make them real. It makes them a lottery team.
Lakers hasn't been playing good basketball lately, the heat weren't health they were missing Lebron. little too early.
The Lakers haven't had a single good win all year. Maybe Chicago (in LA). Now that their schedule is finally getting tough, we'll see what they are made of. IMO they look old and slow and only injuries to other teams will vault them into a threepeat.
So a seven game win streak isn't good basketball? Well **** my pants and call me Sally! The Rockets would have to sacrifice an offering to the basketball gods to get that luck!
