The win today gives GSW their 26th loss. denver have 28. Portland and the Kings are no chance I think we can safely say that, at a minimum, we are going to the playoffs!!
nope the western conference is pack tight, meaning if the anyteam in the top 4 spot lose few games they can be out of the playoff
It's been pretty safe to say for a while now but doesn't mean it will definately happen. Just means it is likely to happen. Thread closed (hopefully).
Have you seen the standings in the west lately...or maybe even a month ago........this things going down to the last week!
Have you been watching the NBA lately. Specifically the Western Conference? Ain't NOBODY (but the East of couse ) safe right now.
fair enough, i know its not mathematically a done deal by any means... but for some reason the Rocks have made a serial pessimist into a optimist this season.
3 teams in the East (Boston, Detroit, Orlando) have clinched playoff births. No team in the West has. That said, I think that 4 more wins (+/- 1) should do it.
MAthematically, no team has clinched the playoff berth in the West. but with 13games remaining, all rockets need to do is go for 6-7 records then it will require Nuggets and Blazers to win all the remaining 13 games which is something i dont think they can accomplish. So the magic number for the rockets to clinch the playoff berth will be 6. Personally i think the rockets will make the playoffs this season thanks to the amazing 22 winning streak unless the rockets suck it up in the final 13 games like 2-11, 3-10 type of records, they should be alright! Go rockets go!
I'm as paranoid as the next guy buy the Rockets are fine when it comes to the playoffs just because I have faith in this Rockets team. The magic number for clinching a playoff spot is 7 or 8.
Right anyone can make the playoffs, from NO and LA, to Denver and Portland. Personally, I believe and hope that the Rockets will get to the playoffs at least, but hey, anything can happen.
