    why is editing a big deal...I cant really think of a reason why you should be restricted from editing your own post.

    If you can post a new thread you should be able to edit. Specially me who does everything on my dumb i phone and I go back and read it and have 34 typos......:mad:haha

    Can I be the paranoid comic relief named Hudson from the movie "Aliens" for a moment?

    Hudson: "We're screwed, man. What are we gonna do now? They're (Lakers) gonna come and they're gonna get us. We can't beat the bad teams and take care of business? The Mavs are rolling and seem to think they have a chance. Golden State is still in the mix. Even Utah is hanging around. Where is our sense of urgency? Why do we play like ass against bad teams? You can count me out. Game over, man! Game over!"

    Followed by Hick's response:

    "I guess we can count you out of everything. Cool it. I need you to find something...anything...to help us beat the bad teams. And, relax. We need you."

    Followed by Burke's response:

    Burke: "Why don't we build a fire and sing some songs? That will cheer us up!"

    Followed by Newt's response:

    Newt: "We better get back (to beating bad teams). They mostly play at night...mostly."

    This epic translation of "Aliens" to "Rockets Basketball" has been brought to you by the ramblings of Surfguy who, for no apparent reason, had an "Aliens" to "Rockets Basketball" moment to describe this crazy playoff race we are in.

    Rockets are screwed if they keep under performing like this.

    According to Sagarin's rankings, the Rockets have the 2nd hardest schedule to date. It's pretty impressive.

    Hardest schedule means nothing when they keep losing to below .5 teams.

    It's probably to give people incentives to not be freeloaders. People already demand quite a bit of a free forum.

    I was optimistic that the Rockets would be in the playoffs, but that midseason trade really threw a curveball on Houston, and now we are forced to play the rookies for major minutes. Which makes me think that Morey doesn't care about making the playoffs ... he wants to develop the young assets so he can trade them later on. This was supposed to be a rebuilding year, and he's still in that mindset.

    Rest of schedule

    18 games
    12 home games in a 7-3-2 format
    6 away games in a 1-3-2 format

    I don't think it is the easiest schedule but it is manageable for a young team
    That would be a sweep for the Spurs, Heat, Lakers, veteran contending teams
