Just figured out myself. Got fooled by Clutch. We will kick the crap out of the Suns in the race, as said in my prediction. Oh, is Cat's injure a joke too?

Final record: 35-31 + 7-9 = 42-40

Now, if everything goes right, we will be two games ahead of the Suns in the end. We have the tie breaker, so that means the Rockets have to lose three more games than that prediction, and the Suns have to win three more. That's plenty of games for us to screw up. Therefore, I'd say the playoff berth is 70% ours.

RocketFan85, we will see who gets the more correct prediction by the end of the season.

I hate the Suns.

9th place might just drive the Powers to be, to wake up, examine the facts and find a remedy for what is up with us. 8thplace might cause the Powers to coninue to be hypnotised into a mellow state of euphoria , dwelling on Championships of long ago!

This is a bad bad bad misprediction. I don't care if I mispredict, but not at this point of the season. It doesn't look good.

OK, let's think positive here alittle. According to my prediction, which has been fairly accurate, we are still one game up on the Suns of Biotches. And, if we can steal the game tomorrow, we are right back on the schedule. If 76ers can lose to GS and Atlanta at home, we have a chance too. Still, it doesn't look good.

I really doubt if we will make the playoff.
With this bizzare coaching, I do not think we will make the playoff.

Ouch, that Suns win against the puppies stings... they're hot right now, but they'll cool down soon, and hopefully drop a couple to teams they're supposed to beat.

The way the Sun is playing lately, there is little hope for us to catch the 8th spot. The beated the Wolf badly, same as the previous game against Denver.

What exactly have the Suns done lately that's so impressive? Ok, the win in Detroit was big, but otherwise, they're playing pretty much the way I figured they would down the stretch. All they've done lately is take care of business at home.

Looking ahead, they've got the Fakers in L.A., home games with Dallas and San Antonio, and road games with Portland and Seattle. If they win the majority of those, props to the Suns on getting the 8th seed. They earned it. But if they go .500 or worse as everyone expects, all the Rockets have to do is not choke at home and win a gimme road game against the Nuggets and they're more than likely in.

I'd say us winning in Philly was impressive. And we beat Minnesota twice at home too so...yeah. And we have beat them 3 times. We should have beat the Suns 4 times. THey got lucky once. Anyways. We aren't going to make the playoffs. But no worries!

Suns of Biotches one game ahead in their schedule. They need to lose, lose damn it!!! Man, I hate them bad. Don't worry, we are still one game ahead of them in the "Jamal prediction standing".

lakers will win tonight, they want to go into playoff with a wining streak, so they will play hard. if rockets can keep wining, they should be able to catch up with sun.

If my psychic abilities serves me right, then I we will actually TIE for the 8th playoff spot!

Thank God we won the tie breaker

But who wants to face Nash and the Mavs?

Well, you shouldn't count out the Spurs just yet. Either way, this will end up in a Texas-based match-up in the first round!
