    The Rockets have a favorable schedule. Play the Spurs and Mavs on the second night of a B2B. 56 wins is attainable. 57 with the right bounces. :cool:

    SAS is arguably the hottest team of all other than GSW and they have everything to fight for while GSW doesn't.

    I would rather play GSW twice in the last week of the season than SAS.

    @ this point I'll take my chances with 5th seed + HCA vs portland compared to facing the Spurs in any capacity.

    Rockets will beat 'em in Houston, and we're 2 games ahead...

    I see us losing two games, one in San Antonio and one vs Okc or Dallas.

    Tomorrow at Portland on a B2B will be tough for the Clippers too.

    I don't mind seeds 2 or 3. What I don't want is to see GSW in the second round / before we absolutely have to play them.

    It would be mighty disappointing to get bounced in the first round again. The first round thing is literally the only thing people tell me when it's a debate on Rockets vs ....

    "When was the last time yall got out of the first round? "
    "Rockets can't even get out of the first round"
    "Have fun getting bounced in the first round again"

    They always add that hilarious laughter at the end too.

    I hate it, I hate it, I hate it!!!

    End that madness. Get the 2nd seed and face Dallas!!!

    Honestly we could very easily fall to 4th/5th. The Blazers remaining schedule is an absolute joke, smh. They are only 1 behind us in the loss column. Still very fluid what seed we get.

    At this point, finishing .500 the rest of the way would be ok with me. Problem is we'll be limping the rest of the way in.

    No way we end up with the Spurs. I think they will be the 2 or 3 seed when it's all said and done.

    We will end up in 4-5 matchup with Clips or Blazers.

    Found this chart interesting and appropriate for this thread. Looks like odds of who we will match up against, not who we have the best shot at beating.
