If you didn't believe we had a chance before to make the playoffs, you should now. I had seen the breakdowns in terms of games vs. playoff teams, contenders, and lottery teams, but just now I decided to take a look at Minnesota's final schedule. Take a look at this-- WOW. What a break for the Rockets. Wed, Mar 28 at Seattle Fri, Mar 30 at Sacramento Sun, Apr 1 at Portland Wed, Apr 4 Portland Fri, Apr 6 Phoenix Sun, Apr 8 LA Lakers Tue, Apr 10 at Vancouver Thu, Apr 12 at LA Lakers Fri, Apr 13 at LA Clippers Sun, Apr 15 Utah Tue, Apr 17 at Houston Wed, Apr 18 at Dallas Every game is against a playoff contender except for the Grizzlies and the Clippers, who actually have played very well lately. Portland twice, Lakers twice, the Kings, Jazz, Mavs, Rockets, Suns... this is brutal if you are a Minnesota fan. If we can just keep it close up to that final month-- around a 2 to 3 game or less deficit if we can't take over before then-- and we are in good shape. ------------------ "We're not settling for just getting in the playoffs."

Hopefully the Wolves can do the Yankee version of the TX 2 step to end the season. Everyone knows Yankees can't dance. ------------------ "Chucky who? I thought we were talking about basketball?" Charles Barkley
Man that T-Wolves schedule is ridiculously brutal! That is where Joe Smith would have helped out, an extra big man against those trees. There is a good chance Minnesota could los 6 games in a row during that run! ------------------ Dream a deadly Dream. . .
The Rockets need to win the next six games to have a chance. ------------------ "Rarely is the question asked: Is our children learning how to put food on their family while being put to death."
