Remaining Schedule

36-30.

 

I really hope we make the playoffs. I miss our team playing when it counts

 

10-4 at least

 

but we'll take some games at the end to ensure us the 8th seed and a matchup with the Thunder

 

11-3.. Book it. Maybe even better if we get Lowry & Martin back. We should be the teams we need to beat.

 

I know we played them well this year, but the way they are playing, I'd rather play the spurs!

 

I predict a 10-4 finish.
The worst they can do I think and still make the playoffs would be 9-5.

 

*denotes tough games...maybe a loss.

 

Though not as dangerous as the Thunder, the Spurs just know how to win games. They also have arguably the best coach in the league. A tough matchup either way.

I watched part of their game vs. IND and they were beasting all the way in the 1st half.

History though tells us they could be hitting their peak early. But San Antonio knows how to build teams the right way. I don't like 'em, but gotta hand it to them.

 

The Rockets are going to need some help from Utah, Phoenix, & Denver. I see maybe 7 wins in the next 14 games. They MUST steal one of the games they aren't supposed to win. Tonights game against the Pacer's has huge implications in how they might finish. That was a game they should have won, and expended a ton of energy in overtime that could hurt against the Bulls tomorrow.

 

Utah, Phoenix and Minnesota just need to continue to lose, and we can still sneak in the 8th spot.

Those games vs. Utah, Phoenix and b2b games vs. Denver will be huge.

 

Mon 02 @ Chicago L (fatigue)

Sun 08 @ Sacramento W (if we play smart and get a good Dally)
Mon 09 @ Portland L (they're tanking)
Wed 11 vs Utah W (I hope)
Fri 13 vs Phoenix W (Nash will give Goran a favor)
Sun 15 @ Denver L
Mon 16 vs Denver W
Wed 18 @ Dallas L
Thu 19 @ New Orleans W
Sat 21 vs Golden State W
Sun 22 @ Miami L
Thu 26 vs New Orleans W

7 wins is just about right, if we play to form and not lose stupid games like tonight's

 

We are going to go on a 9 game winning streak after a 3 game losing streak.

 

9-4 is my prediction

 

Love the Rockets, but I have to stretch to see 7-7, more likely 4-10, no playoffs for you! Brutal end to the season.

 

I sure hope your right.

 

Hopefully Miami will rest their guys that game.
