You guys do remember what the Suns did to us right? We're so far from being an elite team, I have no idea what some of you guys are thinking. My guess is that this team will go .500 the rest of the season. Too many tough teams yet to still play.
I think the Rockets make the playoffs but lose in the first round to Dallas again. No before you say anything I DON'T THINK THE MAVS HAVE A BETTER TEAM THAN THE ROCKETS DO. I do however see that they are athletic at every position on the floor and have like 4 or 5 go to guys they can put on the floor at any given time. Last season the only thing that saved Dallas from being defeated was they were athletic and once Van Horn went down Avery Stumbled onto the KEY that could BEAT HOUSTON but if Van Horn doesn't get injured in game 2 Houston wins in a sweep or in 5 games. The Refs played a huge part yes but Van Horn getting injured forced Dallas into smallball and Houston didn't have the horses that could play that type of game. If we had had Howard we make alot of those shots that Bowen missed but you lose Bowen's defense on Dirk. I think if we make it in which I still think we will we can take Dallas 6 or 7 games just on the Backs of Tmac,Yao and Alston but beating them I don't know. We have to get younger in the offseason and more athletic at the Power forward and go out and find a nice shooter and athletic 2 gaurd starter. Kyle Korver would be excellant but Philly locked him up. We definetly need to keep Bogans because his 6 foot 5 nice spot up shooter and very solid defense is something much needed in the west. Dawson will find a way to keep him. Tonight vs the Clippers I think we get another win and stay on course to make the playoffs as the 8th seed. Go Rockets!!!
According to the Poll result so far, most people agree that Rox will barely miss the playoff. And I also agreed because Rox now are far from a stable team, they can win a 30 points tonight and lose 40 next.
That's the spirit. No time for any Losing streaks. If one occurs, bring on the Astros's Spring Training.
