    45-37 probably won't be enough to make the playoffs but you have to be happy with the progress that would indicate. We are young team that will be better next year regardless.

    I don't think it is fair when a team with 50 WINS in the West might not make the playoffs but a team in the east with 50 LOSES might make the playoffs. The league has to do something because it is just not fair.

    If Dream continues his resurgence the Rocks have a very good chance of going 46-36, but like everyone else has stated it really could not be enough to get in.

    No. It will take 48 wins. IMHO.

    T-Wolves L

    I have the Rockets finishing out the season going 23 and 8 for a finale record of:

    49 and 33

    The finale game of the season against the T-Wolves could be for the 8th and finale spot of the playoffs. Lets hope its not since the Wolves seem to match up against us extreamly well.

    Finale winning percentage of .597
    The current 8th seed is the Suns with a winning percentage of .600 so you can see even with this optomistic view we have a very tough uphil climb in order to make the playoffs.

    Hmmm...When I look at the individual games, I start to think 49 wins really isnt out of the realm of possibility. Let's hope they can pull them all off...If they win all the games they are supposed to win, plus a few against the western conference "elite"...who knows - could be playoff time

    We have to win but the other teams like Denver, Seattle, Suns and Wolves have to lose as well.

    If the Rockets don't make the playoffs with 49 wins, then something is seriously wrong with the balance of power in the league.
