Toronto and GS have already beaten the hell out of us once a piece. I wish I could share your optimism.
The last time I remember someone making a such a bold prediction was our good buddy Ced. Ced predicted that the Rockets would win the final seven games of the 2004-2005 season. He was right. I hope you are too.
Book what, a restaurant for New Year's Eve? Unless the Rockets do something unexpected like string together 3 straight wins, it ain't gonna happen, especially against the Warriors.
How about a tipjar bet? If we couldn't get straight wins in the next 3 games, I will send $20 to the clutchfans tipjar. Who want to bet? Merry Christmas to all Clutchfans here.
The way we play the 1st quarter vs Toronto is the way we can play. Last year beat the hell out of us once and then we return the favor in their house. The entire rotation have change including Rafer playing. I don't count GS game that was a back to back game after beating the Suns in a hard fought battle and they try to play a GS run and gun team that was really hot at that time.
back to backs are apart of the NBA.. whether we beat GS is all going to depend on yao. GS struggles against teams with a dominant post presence, so yao has got to be that presence or we lose again.
denniscd, you have already made many predictions like this in the past month or so, and all have been wrong. Here's my prediction: we will be more than 10 games under .500 by mid-January. Book it!
Hey look at it this way, we are only 5 games back of the Hornets and 8 games behind the Division leading Spurs. Yeahhhh!!!
We still struggle against these quicker uptempo teams. It's difficult for our half-court style to match their run-and-gun style. I'm not saying this prediction is out of the question but I would be very surprised if it did actually happen.
