    I'm thinking the Rockets sweep the home stand and finally lose on the second half of a back-to-back in Dallas. I hate to lose to Dallas, but it seems the most likely first loss in this amazing streak

    I think we will beat Dallas this time we have to. We don't want to lose all four meetings. But anyways call me crazy but I think the streak will stop at 21. We will lose March 16 vs the Lakers.

    Hey, I'm just making my best guess. There's no shame to losing to Dallas on the road in a back-to-back. What? Do you think they are going to win the rest of their games?

    I think that's one of the great things about this team and this streak. The level of intensity has been consistent throughout. Other than the last part of the Sacramento game, we haven't had any letdowns.

    There were times in the NO game last night when our offense would sort of stagnate, but because our defense was so stifling, our lead actually grew.

    I just don't see us losing any trap games, because we have players (Scola, Landry, Hayes, Rafer, Battier, Yao) that never let up on D, and that attidude is contagious and just causes everyone else to pick up their own intensity.

    What's the actual franchise record? I know we won 15 to open in 93, but is that the record for consecutive wins? If it is, I would love to see us break it.

    they just beat the best team in the wc. now they face the bulls a team they sleep walk wins over. it depends if they can keep the energy levels up. imo when they finally drop a game it'll be against a side they don't expect a loss from. the bulls game will be dangerous for them.

    You mean bad karma?

    P.S. Desertfire, a list of our next 10 games would be nice to have on this thread.

    Probally Rocket slip up at home court for one time, but definately Rocket will win Dallas at their home court. Everyone will step up for a terrific game.
