    apparently the Warriors aren't playing any contenders either:

    <blockquote class="twitter-tweet" lang="en"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Warriors next 6 games:

    @ Nuggets
    vs Lakers
    @ Suns
    vs Kings
    @ Jazz
    @ Hornets

    20-0???</p>&mdash; BALL UP NBA (@BallUpNBA) <a href="https://twitter.com/BallUpNBA/status/667954699790852096">November 21, 2015</a></blockquote>

    Great! Another jinx.

    Anyway, this thread will forever alter the way we post in CF. We will always be weary of creating the next jinx. No more overly optimistic threads about specifics in the future (by specifics I mean predicting good things out of actual games for example).

    From now on, all noobs will be flamed for saying good things in the rockets future (when in the past it was always the positive posts that were given 5 stars, and negative posts given lower stars). The noobs will have no idea why.

    All of us who have lived through this jinx will create in-joke anti-jinx threads and comments, and the noobs who have not lived through this era will have no idea why CF is so negative.

    This thread will seriously go down as CF folklore. This is the stuff made of myths and legends.

    I know it sounds ridiculous, but I believe had they played real contenders in that stretch, they would've done better and had more wins.

    It just seems as though tonight, while we are all basking in the warm glow of the Rockets' recent three-game excellence, we might look fondly back on some of the key CF threads that defined our 2015-2016 Rockets season. This is one of them. :grin:

    I accept no responsibility for any potential losing streaks or losses. Don't blame me, don't @ me. :D

    Rockets don't play any real contenders in their next 34 games ... according to ESPN. :eek::eek::eek:

    How can Rockets be favored in all these games when the Rockets have all these injuries?
