    Lets be fair though, we've had a fairly easy schedule this year so far, with a lot of breaks and rest in between. We had a decently strong start last season too. If we get to the all star break and we're still 1-2 best record in the league, without a doubt i will agree.

    oh the "easy schedule" scapegoat ok. probably one of the worst attempts to try & support a statement.

    it doesnt take an "easy schedule" to realize how good this team is and how well they are playing. thats only if you actually follow this team on a regular basis. if you dont well then yeah, you wouldnt really fully understand the makeup of this team

    Just remember. When in doubt, don’t say anything. Approach game thread thoughts of “We may lose tonight” with the same crusaders’ zeal of eviscerating “win streak” prognostications.

    If you step over that line of vocalizing doubt—even subtley—get ready to line up.

    It's a sign of The times. The rockets are so good that there are not enough negative duds so @DonKnock is having to sacrifice solid posters to satisfy the basketball gods.

    I'm just saying he lacked certainty as to the final outcome of last night's game. That's all I'm saying.

    you're mistaken. try again. That's a skeptics view.. I'm an optimist. I'm not scared to get my hopes up.

    They may not win = I hope they win/There is still a chance
