Here we are: 22-19 at exactly the halfway point of the season. Here's your chance to cast your vote with 41 games left to decide our fate. I'll continue to be the optimist and vote 'yes'. Edit: How do you make this a public poll? I think given bandwagon tendencies of most fans it's only fair to do this that way.
Hell Yes, as long McGrady and Yao are both in the lineup. Phoenix 29 - 12 New Orleans 28 - 12 L.A. Lakers 27 - 12 (will fade) Portland 25 - 16 (will fade) Dallas 27 - 13 San Antonio 26 - 13 Denver 24 - 16 Golden State 25 - 18 (will fade) Utah 24 - 18 Houston 22 - 19 We still have 41 games to go...Portland and either LA or GS will fade. Go Rockets!
After Feb. I would be thinking the standings would be something like this: 1. Phoenix 2. New Orleans 3. Golden State 4. Denver 5. Dallas 6. San Antonio 7. Houston 8. Utah 9. Portland 10. LA Lakers And the difference between 7-10 would be 1 game.
The schedule for the rest of this month and February provide an opportunity for the Rockets to get back into the playoff picture. So, YES, I believe we can still do this thing!
Actually I didn't pay attention to Dallas' sched, which is easier than NO's in Feb. So.. 1. Phoenix 2. Dallas 3. Denver 4. New Orleans 5. San Antonio 6. Golden State 7. Houston 8. Utah
I think we can make the playoffs still, but things don't look good for us doing anything once we get there, especially if Tmac is playing injured the rest of the year.
there's a chance if we made a winning streak before the All star break...if not, let's not be too optimistic about it...
only worry is tmac's leg.... if he can hold on til the end of the season, we are sure in playoff. but it looks hurt pretty bad.
