    Guys, I think this season is over. Don't expect us to make a push for the playoffs. Whether we win a couple of games I think it would not be enough especially of the competition among other lower teams. This team lacks stability. Lack of stability among every player (especially Yao) and as a team. This season would only be a time for seeking chemistry and it proves that that this is we are not ready enough. We must hope for the future and not put our hopes this season..

    They are staying around .500 while they gain chemistry, which is pretty good. I think we are spoiled by their recent success after a couple trades. I don't expect for them to hit their stride until sometime in the second half of the season. Then they'll head into the playoffs with some steam. But, we'll have to go through some growing pains in the short term.

    I think there still might be time, if JVG leaves before the all star break.

    Inspiration will transpire and a new desire to win will follow.

    We will make the playoffs this year. I guarantee it. Why? 'cause Portland, Denver will fold. They can't last long.

    Memphis and Clippers are getting better. I think Memphis will make the playoff over Rox.

    Rockets are currently 10th seed in the west despite having the easiest schedule in December. Check our Janaury schedule, it is brutal from now on. Five home games (Spurs, Kings, Pacers, Magic and Nets) and eight road games (Mavs, Heat, Magic, Kincks, Nuggets, Grizziles, Celetics, Hornets). Rockets could easily go 2-11 in the stretch.
