    must win, then probably we can get the 2nd seed, and that will be fantastic

    Actually I was thinking how long it gon' last to stay in the 2nd seed or the 3rd for the Rockets,just take a glimpse at the upcoming schedule,it's just much tougher than any other teams I guess.

    And what if we would hold on to the 2nd or the 3rd berth in the West,which team is the best option for us to match up with?I don't like Denver/Houston face-off in the 1st round.

    Youre right, our schedule is tough.


    But we dont have any back to back games until april 9th and 10th. And that is on the road at SAC then GSW. So thank god we dont play 4 games in 5 nights anymore.

    Oh?I thought tomorrow against the Spurs is the last back to back we're gon' play,haven't check the full schedule yet.

    SAC and GSW?well,hope we could keep winning and rack up wins til that moment and we wouldn't bother to fight hard for a good spot in the West. :)

    I hope our outside shooting is on today cuz Oberto is gonna give Yao fits. Scola should be posted up quite a bit today, IMO.

    i don't want to say it like this but this is a must win game for the rockets! for playoff seeding.. we have a better chance getting then 2nd seed if we win this head to head matchup because we've been 2 games behind the spurs for about a while now and we haven't gave them any reason to feel a sense of urgency in their division. without ginobili and mason and rockets at home i see a good game.....spurs-90 rockets-98

    Back to back game and those are always interesting to say the least. This team does match up very well with the Spurs though.

    Weve been playing really well at home.
    My only concern is fatigue. Its going to be a good game.

    will be happy with a win, but a close loss wouldnt mean we're out of the first round again.

    Preview of the 2nd round. ;)

    Yao vs Duncan, can't wait for that matchup. It's a thing of beauty when they matchup.
