    Who would you want to lead the Rockets next year? What is the ideal scenario?

    all those negative talk around the media is having a positive effect on us. let's face it, we played so much better when people say are not not real.

    those early season hype around the media didn't do us any good

    I knew they would. You can't deny 18 wins in a row and us man-handling the Mavs and Hornets last week.

    They had NO CHOICE but to put the Rockets at #1. But then of course if the Rockets happen to lose ONE this week, they'll knock us back down to 4th or 5th with the quickness.

    Luis Scola's performance is important. T-Mac also plays well.

    I love it. I did the fan rankings where you have to do 5 and I posted

    1. Rockets
    2. Lakers
    3. Celtics
    4. Pistons
    5. Hornets

    and got to see that while the Rockets were in 3rd according to fans, they had almost a hundred more first place votes than anyone else

    The only power rankings that matter are the ones after the NBA Finals.

    I am a Mavs fan, not here to argue anything just here to give my opinion...

    I honestly do think the Rockets are a good team, however, I can't see them going anywhere in the playoffs without Yao...

    Yeah, 19 in a row is amazing, unbelievable and crazy but who have the Rockets played in that stretch that was actually good? New Orleans twice, Golden State, Nuggets and the Mavs (without Dirk)...

    Beating the Hornets and Mavs on the road is a great accomplishment but that's only 2 games of the 19 that have impressed me...

    I think we will all be able to assess how good this team is later this month when they actually start playing some decent teams ON THE ROAD...Or some decent teams, period...

    That said, doesn't look like you guys are going to lose the next two either...Home games against bad teams (just like the rest of the streak)...
