    He says he's only really looking at team stats since allstar break but did take into account how well we're doing, if thats true i think we should be #1 since we've only lost 4 games this year, i believe thats better than anybody.

    3 is quite high enough for the 9th or 10th best record in the nba

    While I have no problem with being #3, I don't think the Rockets record has anything to do with whether or not they should be #1 or not. The people putting this together or taking into account that this is the "real" Rockets team, at full-strength know that the Rockets would have a better record if they were healthier.

    3 is a little too high for us....I mean we beat a bunch of sub 500 teams we were suppose to beat, and beat the hornets which we were not suppose to beat....I think we are all getting carried away with this win streak.

    These rankings don't mean anything to me. I'd actually prefer us getting overlooked so we can catch other teams by surprise.

    It also didn't help that you lost your coach... speaking as a person who's team had no business being in the pre-season rankings after taking your coach either! ;)

    Yeah sure and if the Rockets win an NBA title this year it was pure luck, just like our 21-4 record in 2008. :rolleyes:

    In all the rankings, Heat is the dead last! That must be about right!
