    I'm in the same boat. Suspense is killing me. One of my vendors in Miami just told me so many people are pumped for our game tonight and rooting for us. That is good to hear. We got support in Miami! (I know, its because its against the Lakers)

    Do Pau Gasol said his brother only expects to play 24 mins, if not less, and maybe none because Hollins doesn't really care whether they get homecourt against the Clippers

    Don't be ridiculous. We could lose the next five in a row and it won't make any difference. Regardless of what happens the next five games, this year has been a huge success for McHale and the Rockets. If the Rockets go in reverse next year, McHale would then be in trouble.

    This! Everything that happens from here on out is just gravy. A team this young and inexperienced aren't supposed to be this successful. Let alone, on their first season together. This is unheard of! People should start realizing how easy it is for teams like us to be one of the bottom feeders especially in a brutal Western conference.

    all you guys who keep talking about how we should be happy just to make the playoffs..thats a load of crap.

    we have good talent.

    is there any team in the lotto right now with a player better than James Harden?
    no?

    there's your answer. we didn't make the playoffs last few years because we didn't have THE player...now we do, and thus we are in the playoffs.

    Grow up. The Rockets have lost to a bunch of trash teams this season. It's nobody but their own fault.
