    Rocks: 16-8 the rest of the way, end up 47-35, 7th seed.

    Lakers: 17-8, 45-27, 8th seed

    Jazz: 13-13, 44-28, miss playoffs

    with small ball, you live and die with the three point shot. The shot better go in , because with the height disadvantage there is not much chance of an offensive rebound.

    as long as the rockets dont relax during this easy schedule, we should be fine.

    But 16-11 against teams that are under .500 is not ideal

    Once we got slowed down by opponent defense or our own fatigue, we lost the speed advantage of small ball, and size disadvantage come out to take away our rebounds and half-court offense.

    Spot on. If JH doesn't get the calls, 3 pointers are not dropping, it will be a long night for Rockets.

    yeah but the refs are doing everything they can to keep the Lakers in the game. Just saw a ridiculous foul called against Fareid

    I'm telling everyone right now, if we don't somehow get 6th or 7th seed, David Stern will send his hit squad of referees to completely sabotage whatever team is fighting 8th seed with the Lakers. I guarantee it, by the last like ten or so games. You will see some shady calls for the Lakers, and whatever other games will affect the standings.
