It doesn't look like anyone has mentioned Feigen's blog (the blog ), but apparently Bonzi went with Tracy to Waco for some therapy from John Patterson. From the blog, Bonzi was really positive about how his back responded to it, seemingly identical to TMac's first experience, and Bonzi mentioned that he feels great. So, with what the blog said, and with what the anecdotal evidence pertaining to TMac's back situation showed, I'd say we might have Bonzi back by the time that the Suns game rolls around, if not sooner. With all of that in mind, I'll be happy if we can get 3 wins ( over Kings and Nuggets x 2).
This team continues to amaze me. Mentally speaking, this is by FAR the toughest team we've had in years. Seriously, when was the last time a Rockets team didn't completely collapse without their MVP candidate and two key rotation players? Wasn't it one of those championship seasons when Dream went down for a stretch of games?

I'm already wrong and loving it. I'll be even more surprised when they make it through the first round.
I am happy that I was right for the first 2 game but I will be happy if I was wrong for the next five (except the next Denver game). GO ROCKETS!
In the 10 killer games we're in the midst off, I thought it would be amazing if we went 5-5. We're currently 4-1. We still have Phoenix, San Antonio and Dallas coming up. Those 3 games plus sac-town and denver. If we win 7 games, I'm still amazed. If we win 8, I will be speechless. And if we win out the remaining 5 - well, I just don't see that as being possible. But if we do win 5 in a row, I'll donate $100 toward the BBS.
