    I know people talk about our "long" absence from the playoffs- but it's really only been four years. I don't know if I consider that long.

    So we officially don't have our own 1 round pick next draft correct? It goes to Atlanta?

    I am happy,but we need to rectify our mistakes as much as possible before going into the playoffs. Breaking down the opponent's defense,making the extra pass,setting screens,rolling to the basket, making free throws,team and individual defense,rebounding.
    The shots will go down,if we play better fundamental basketball.
    Hope all our guys will get healthy quickly.
    I will be satisfied if our team goes down fighting in every game.
    GO HOUSTON ROCKETS!

    You know what? We ARE gonna finish with the 6th seed and we AREgonna make it to the second round. I'm trying out my inner DeAleck here, but we have too many winners in this team not to make noise this year from McHale on down. As a multi-champion, I know it's championship or bust with him and our boys are young and impressionable enough to believe that. I believe!!

    I have expected this ever since I saw this team play in the beginning of the season. I even said that this team could get the 5th spot and was responded with disbelief.

    Props to McHale and the rest of the coaching staff for finally figuring out the rotations and the strengths and weaknesses of our players. This gives me hope for the playoffs. If we match up with OKC, we might have a good chance moving forward (compared to the other options). Even hopeful against Spurs with Parker being out. Let's hope that we don't end up playing George Karl's team.

    Not the youngest team, but the least experienced.
