It's a good thing to say Rockets play game by game, but we're Rockets' fans. We can look ahead and chat. It's all for fun and glory ya know!
Here my dream/expectation: we run the table and Utah loses all remaining games: @GSW Hou Dall Spurs @Sac
At first I thougt we would lose the games againts Portland, Utah, and Seatle. These are the teams that have given us trouble through out the years. But after reading this: [I}The Magic's appearance at Compaq Center completed their tour of the "Texas Triangle." Orlando is the sixth team to make all three stops. The first five to complete the full triangle were 2-13 against the Rockets, Spurs and Mavericks. The Magic had lost their first two in Texas before arriving in Houston. [/I] I realized that Seatle should be easy pickings considering they will be going through the same triangle when they play us. That means wins againts Seatle, memphis, and Denver; and there is always the chance that we beat Portland tonight or the Jazz next game. Now that I think about it, this will be the first time I will see the Rockets make the playoffs (startted watching the year Barkley went down.) It will be great to finally see a team go in that I will be able to root for rather than againts (Utah, Lakers, and Nets.)
My picks 8 Tue Portland win 9 Wed @ Utah lose 12 Sat Seattle win 15 Tue Memphis win 16 Wed @ Denver win Suns Last Games 8 Tue @ Denver win 9 Wed Dallas lose 11 Fri Golden State win 13 Sun San Antonio lose 15 Tue @ Portland win 16 Wed @ Seattle lose Rox in playoffs, but lose in the 1st round...
I agree with lalala. Phoenix is playing well lately and they know what is at stake. I wouldn't be surprised if they beat the Mavs or Spurs since they are playing at home. The Rockets need to win them all! Hopefully Phoenix will ose at least one. Thank God for the tie-breaker. The Suns control their own destiny and that's a scary thought for a Rocket's fan.
Phoenix is rising. Marbury and Marion are taking it to another level. But look at the Rockets. Erratic as ever, and now with the Eddie Griffin situation, no telling what's going to happen. The safe money is on the Rockets NOT making the playoffs.
Man bad losses come back to hunt us down @ L.A. Clippers L 90-89 @ Memphis L 114-109(OT) L.A. Clippers L 94-83 @ Atlanta L 84-75 @ Chicago L 100-98 @ Cleveland L 105-102 @ New York L 102-95 @ Washington L 100-98(OT) if we won 3 of these 8 games were would we be now. restin players for the playoffs.
you spelled wood wrong. congrats. you have just destroyed any hope the rockets had for the playoffs. i hope you are satisfied. oh, and my prediction is seattle sneaks up, runs the table and makes the playoffs while us and phoenix sit there with no idea whats going on. griffin and mo shrug and smoke a bong with amare.
Well the Suns have had comparable losses though: Nov 23 vs Denver L 79-80 Dec 2 vs Miami L 90-100 Dec 8 at Memphis L 94-102 Jan 22 at Miami L 85-92 Jan 26 at New York L 98-106 Jan 27 at Washington L 93-98 Feb 11 vs LA Clippers L 106-107 Feb 14 vs New York L 115-116 Feb 21 at Toronto L 89-92 Feb 24 at Chicago L 87-90 Let's just look ahead and get the 6 wins to end the season!!
