    I remember starting that season 15-0 - that was a thing of beauty!

    Sorry, but this isn't true. Barkley's first year we were 21-2 and 21-4

    I'm confused what you mean. You mean at least 21-4, because both years we were better at 21 Wins.

    In 1994, we were 22-1. Then 23-3.

    The Rockets would have to sweep this homestand to match the 1993-94 team's 27-4 start.

    Oops, a premature and mistaken post. Should say 22-4 (after tonight's win).
    Please no jinx.

    That 1994 team was absurd. They were unstoppable at the beginning of the year. But yes, this thread is misleading. That team was 22-1 and 22-3 after 25. Barkley's Rockets started 21-2 and were at 21-4 also.

    You can edit your title since Barkley's team did it, too.

    But, that might be a jinx to say 22-4. Best just to leave your mistake as is. The Basketball Jinx Gods might actually feel sorry for you.

    Still inaccurate man haha :) the 93-94 team were 23-3 after 26 games, so if you say 23-4 possibly after a win against Hornets and Spurs on Friday you would be right.

    He's fine, if he meant "at least 22-4."
