    Can't really trust teams like Blazers and Nuggets.

    Once they play well, and then they might get swept by the likes of Pelicans.

    Denver is 7-0 vs OKC over last two years.

    They don't fear Adams at all, with Jokic. Where us Rockets fans think Adams screws up our offense, you just have to get that out of your head. Denver doesn't care. They are one of the few teams who can get Adams away from the defensive rim. Their star does not care about Adams, like we do.

    meanwhile, Denver hasn't won in San Antonio the last two years...four losses away against Pops. And 3yrs ago, they were swept 0-4, but that was a Kawhi team, so we will ignore that.

    The Clippers are already 8th. Minnesota winning would hand the Rockets the 2nd seed.

    T-Wolves up 11 in the 4th. Nuggets shooting lots of long jumpers. That is the correct way of tanking.;)

    Even if Denver loses and the Rockets get the 2nd seed, they missed a golden opportunity last night to push OKC to the 8th spot to bang with the Warriors. Now the Warriors will have their cakewalk sweep of the Clippers.

    i wont knock the blazers. their title hopes pretty much went out the window with the nurkic injury. if they can get out of the first round, and lose to the eventual champs, thats not too bad all things considered.

    Yep. 6-8 are set at this point. But I'd rather face San Antonio than OKC. The Spurs could push us to 7. The Thunder could actually beat us.

    it will be completely and totally "rockets-like" if both Portland and Denver came back in the 4th to win.

    Blazers actually trying now that Denver is losing... could be changing their game plan if Denver starts winning again..
