Rockets @TANKATHON - 2022

The schedule ahead has me nervous.

We'll see how much the Rockets actually care about solidifying a top pick when they play Portland twice, Sacramento twice, and San Antonio.

Will they try to finish with the worst record for the best chance at number one, and also guarantee a top 5 pick?

Or will they win some games that are meaningless and not have the best odds for number one and risk dropping to 6 or 7?

Or even worse, finish with a better record than OKC and really mess up the draft positioning.

 

Those 4 games against Portland and Sac-town are going to be tough tough games to lose.

 

The Rox have been so horrible that I can see them trying to win one just to prove otherwise.

 

They can win one, they can even win 2, but we all know that it might be trouble if they win 3

 

Rockets can win 3 more games and tie for the worst record assuming OKC loses out rest of the way.

Could be close.

 

Dude, it’s a freaking lottery, Silvers not deciding who gets the first pick

 

EXACTLY! It's not like ANYTHING in the NBA has ever been rigged before

 

oh yes, the ‘I don’t like the outcome so it must have been rigged mindset’.

very popular it seems

 

.....no, the "it was literally rigged, so it must be rigged" mentality.

 

Sabonis' injury won't help, either. I think he's going to be out for both games. Smh.

 

As long KPJ decides to not get back on defense and sulk after every blown call. Refusing to come out of games we should have no problem losing these next 5.

 

Detroit was down by 23 to Portland, came roaring back and took a brief lead only to break our hearts and lose.... they did it to us again... *sigh*

 

We are not getting worse record.

 

Rockets gonna end up with the 7th pick in the draft for meaningless Wood stat-padding.

 

We aren’t going to 50% on over 40 attempts often….

 

Yeah now with our win it's really going to be tough now. If we win both those portland games which is entirely possible, and one of those sactown games that puts us at 21 wins.

We might be looking at the 3rd or 4th worst record in the NBA

 

And the meaningless winning streak where they were showcasing Gordon just to not trade him.

 

1 down, 2 to go.
