    GSW just won 120 vs 118 Phenix. Again Rockets fall to the 9th spot. The west is really tough. But watch out!!! The Rockets are just going to be better after the break!!!!

    Denver lost. We are 8th. Not like it matters that much bc that was one UGLY win today. Just a friendly reminder we are not very mentally tough.

    we are 8th seed, I don't mind GSW wins as long as we wins, there would be someone losing anyway.

    New Orleans almost lost to Bucks, so anything could happen.

    Rocket are only 4.5 games behind NOH

    It has been so long and we are still 9th. When do you think we will be in the last 8? Anyone ?

    Well we are officially in the playoffs now, barely.

    We're tied with GS and Denver at 32-20, tiebreaker is split between Denver and Houston; we have a better conference record than Denver so we get that tiebreaker.

    Really? ... Because I seem to recall us closing out several close games very strongly during this streak, both on the road, and at home, including games after the opponent made a run during the fourth quarter. In fact, the majority of the wins were like that. Tonight was more of an aberration.

    Wow, denver is out of the playoffs but they are actually one game away from getting the fourth seed because their division leader utah is only one game ahead of them. So that means utah is also one game from missing the playoffs sort of.

    I can't tell if that's sarcasm. If it's not, then your pessimism depresses me. Cheer up, buddy. A nice lay would do wonders :)
