I am right about 99.1% of the time on these predictions, I guarentee you, this will be an ass-whoop'in... akeem
Ok .. again we hear from Akeem. Rockets will win tonight, MAKE THAT 7 in a row. Bring on the warriors!
Akeem, I am off to Vegas, who will win the Super Bowl? Good to hear about the Rockets tonight. GO ROCKS !! DaDakota
Good call, Akeem. I would like to go on record saying that I agree with you. I also believe the Rockets will make the playoffs. Hopefully, you can make a prediction of the same with 99% accuracy! Go Rockets!
Akeem, Who will blame you for getting this wrong? So this game is out of your 0.9% margin of error? The Rox should have won the game. The T'Wolves slipped the game mid-way through the 4th, but the Rox just couldn't even get a single field in that stretch.
It was simply ridiculous...The Rockets should eventually lean form their past mistakes, and finish games in the fourth quarter...But the Wolves are very hot, so I will at least give them that much. I felt very confident about the game, however we all make mistakes, but these Rockets are not the same team that started 4-11. They will play well for the rest of the year, but I hope they don't make the playoffs. I would like to see them enter the lottery, with doing that they have a chance at getting one of the top picks just like san antonio did a couple of years ago to land Duncan. What do yall think??
Akeem, I think you will get your wish. No way will the Rockets make the playoffs. They dug themselves too deep a hole. DaDakota
S'okay, Akeem....I forgive ya! Hey, a loss was anticipated (eventually) and so happens the Pups were the better team -- last night. Let's put it behind us and start the next streak! [This message has been edited by BlastOff (edited January 26, 2000).]
Blastoff, Right On!!! Give me 6 and 1 every 7 games for the rest of the season and I would be a happy man!
If you look at the statistics (which I have done in my thread "record breakdown as of...") you should realize that a win against a team with a .500 or better percentage is not likely. Therefore, to keep your percentage more Jimmy the Greek-ish, you should probably only guarantee victory against teams with losing records. Just thought I would help you out there. ------------------ There can be only one...
The main reason they won't make the playoffs is there is 8 good teams in the West. Of the weakest 3, Minnesotta is only gone to play better the second half of the season (getting Smith back, Wally getting healthly and learning more). Pheonix still has Kidd and a bunch of shooters. Seattle has GP and mostly a bunch of slackers but the former alone is enough to win half their games. Call it bad timing (for making the playoffs) or good timing (for making the lottery) but there is just no way the Rockets will be in the playoffs barring GP getting injured.
