March is a tough month for us, if we do well here Rockets could be on their way to a 2nd seed, a bad month and maybe a 6th-8th seed. SO FAR THIS MONTH: Gimme games so far this month: 5-0 (@minn, tor, phx, mem, @char). - Charlotte and Suns are close but Suns were injured + we were at home, and this Rockets team HAS to beat the Bobcats to prove they are contenders Tossups/Likely losses: 1-2 (@Den, LAL, @UTH) - @Den I thought was gonna be a loss due to the fact that all playoff bound teams in the west are TOUGH at home. @UTH and any game vs. LA is gonna be a hard to win. Mar 14 vs San Antonio W Mar 16 at New Orleans W Mar 18 vs Detroit W Mar 20 vs Minnesota W Mar 22 at San Antonio L Mar 24 at Utah L Mar 28 vs LA Clippers W Well my predictions say we are gonna end 5-2 which would make us 11-4 for a TOUGH month which would be AMAZING. I'm hoping the Rockets can take 1 of the 3 big games on the road (SA, NO, Utah) (if not more) because that would be huge for this team and they REALLY need to handle their business at home. Predict away!
Mar 14 vs San Antonio W Mar 16 at New Orleans L Mar 18 vs Detroit W Mar 20 vs Minnesota W Mar 22 at San Antonio L Mar 24 at Utah L Mar 28 vs LA Clippers W My prediction is 4-3 It'll be interesting to see how we do against New Orleans and San Antonio with our current lineup.
Mar 14 vs San Antonio L Mar 16 at New Orleans W Mar 18 vs Detroit W Mar 20 vs Minnesota W Mar 22 at San Antonio L Mar 24 at Utah L Mar 28 vs LA Clippers W My prediction 4-3. This is a tough month for us. As someone else mentioned, we could easily be 3-4. If we go 5-2, I would be ecstatic.
Mar 14 vs San Antonio W Mar 16 at New Orleans W Mar 18 vs Detroit W Mar 20 vs Minnesota W Mar 22 at San Antonio W Mar 24 at Utah L Mar 28 vs LA Clippers W Being as optimistic as possible. They are all winnable games except Utah, especially since it's AT utah.
Why do you guys make these threads? I hate these kinds of threads.. Why predict? Just watch, and take it one game at a time.., no need to predict.
How would you feel... If it turned out like this: Mar 14 vs San Antonio W Mar 16 at New Orleans W Mar 18 vs Detroit W Mar 20 vs Minnesota L Mar 22 at San Antonio W Mar 24 at Utah W Mar 28 vs LA Clippers L
I'd be annoyed but I would like it better than my prediction. Beating good teams on their homecourt is what we have to be able to do in playoffs + we gain a full game on them and those losses only net us a -.5
Why do you read these threads? You hate these kinds of threads.. Why read? Just ignore, read the other threads.., no need to read this one.
No, not unless a TMac 44 point explosion or a toothless Landry block party go down!! Or if you bring back Hakeem.
Mar 14 vs San Antonio Loss, back-to-back Mar 16 at New Orleans Loss, we're still a bad road team Mar 18 vs Detroit Loss, detroit is on a roll and the memory of the loss earlier is still vivid Mar 20 vs Minnesota Win, easy Mar 22 at San Antonio Loss, we cannot play in San Antonio, remember 2 wins in the last 12 years @ SA !!! Mar 24 at Utah Loss, the refs and flopping Mar 28 vs LA Clippers Win, they just flat out stink That's 2-5 and I'm afraid we will be exposed tremendously the next couple of games with these 4th quarter meltdowns, Artest playing stupid, AB back to Rafer mode, Battier liability on offense and lack of committment to getting Yao the ball.
Okay,if so,I would like to go with 4-3 or at the more optimistic level,5-2 is possible also. And maybe we would win big against the division rivalry and will beat the Spurs at SA because that's gon' be aired nationwide on ESPN.
