    It's not what they think. It's what viewers think. What we're doing is just for fun :D

    up to 58% now :)

    as to why we should care what these polls say, they will help "determine" what teams are showed, and their frequency, on the pre-season tv scheduling. They monitor their target audience, and if you answer a web poll, you're more than likely to watch the game on tv/cable.

    I'd like to congratulate everyone. At the last count of the night, the poll is now 60-40 in favor of the Rockets making the playoffs. That's a 15 point turn-around.
