    The way the Spurs are playing, zero.

    I think we could have stole one from the Thunder.

    We would have won the series. Goran Dragic is a SPUR KILLER. He would have averaged at least 40 ppg, 15 apg, 6 rpg, 4 stls. And they seem to play better against powerhouse teams.

    The way we were playing at the end of the season - 0

    The way we were playing at the end of the road trip where we beat the Bulls and Lakers - 3.

    So I will go with 1 game.

    The acquisition of Jax changes everything. He's a Rocket killer and would have made it very tough to win any games, considering the Spurs are already playing well as a team.

    That being said, matchups shouldn't be ignored. Just because a team had a better record or beat us frequently, doesn't mean we'd fare worse against their playoff opponent. I think we win one at home, possibly two if Lowry is healthy.

    Those that voted 4 are straight up homers. Getting 4 wins off this loaded Spurs team, are you kidding me? I voted 0, at most they would have won 1, imo.

    I don't think that is a fair comment. I think we could have won 2. I understand that we are not that good but we do get hot often. I really think that dragic and lowry could have willed us to two wins.

    Going into the Spurs-Jazz series, I thought we could've snuck out a game or two. After the Spurs-Jazz series, I realized the Rockets really had no business being in the playoffs.

    One of arguments from some people is that the team make the playoffs run first, then young players will get a confident growth by playing the playoffs games, but if your team are totally destroyed by the team like Spurs, then how is the confident growth coming from? The rockets are just not ready for the playoffs, get one or two stars, then start to talk the playoffs run.

    How have the Rockets been destroyed by the Spurs? Not making it to the Playoffs has nothing to do with how we compete with SA. We have always played them well in the past few seasons. I highly doubt they would have swept us.

    That is another weak argument. Spurs swept Jazz, it is a kind of destroy in my book. Jazz made the playoffs, and the rockets missed the playoffs with one six game-losing streak, and Spurs have beaten some teams with 20 plus point for many games, I highly doubt they would not sweep us. Personally, I just do not want to see my team got embarrassing on the TV, but business man wants to make money, wants to make the playoffs each year.

    Your eyes saw us play the Spurs very early in the season before they hit their stride. The Spurs are a much better team now than they were early in the season.
