Here comes the hard part of the rest of the season , After the Spurs game tonight , The Rocks get 2 days off before they go on a three game west coast swing , Where we play Sacramento who has beaten us 7 straight times I think , Then we look to "even up" the series aginst the Clip Joint , than we fly up to Seattle where we try to Put the Sonics out of reach . Then we get home for Utah and Phoenix . My Prediction is we go 4-2 San Antonio Win 99-92 Sacramento Win 98-83 LA Clippers Win 92-72 Seattle Loss 90-79 Utah Loss 100-93 Phoenix Win 102-83 ------------------ Rockets Player Profile Cuttino Mobley Position: G Born: 09/01/74 Height: 6-4 Weight: 190 lbs.

I'd like to say the Rockets will win all of them..but I'll go more conservative...Just to avoid being too optimistic I'll say they go 3-3: Spurs - L - 97 - 91 SA big men prove too powerful inside Sacramento - L - 98 - 96 In a hard fought battle, Kings take it Clippers - W - 103 - 92 Having finally broken the Clip curse last time, the Clips cant keep up Seatle - W - 101 - 97 no reasons or details, rockets just win it Utah - L - 99 - 95 - Malone commits close to 35 fouls but gets called for only 3 of them Phoenix - W - 108 - 94 Vengence becomes a factor as rocket destroy Phoenix ------------------ "It's finger ling ling good!" - Homer Simpson's opinion of Kentucky Fried Panda
11 point loss to Seattle? Come on now. SA w 89-81 Sac l 74-112 lac w 101-95 Sea w 105-97 Uta w 95-93 Pho w 215-50 ------------------ Hakeem "The Dream" Olajuwon is the greatest player in the history of basketball. If you disagree, you are not a Rocket fan.
Spurs- W 89-85 Kings- L 104-91 Clips- W 94-87 Sonics- W 102-94 Jazz- W 98-97 Suns- W 97-88 Into the 8th seed and possibly 7th. ------------------ "We're not settling for just getting in the playoffs."

They don't have to. It's in Houston. ------------------ "We're not settling for just getting in the playoffs." "We want a higher seed. There's no doubt. We expect to get in."-- Steve Francis President of the Mo Taylor and Jason Collier fan club! Draftsource.net ClutchTown.com
Not gonna say the score but here's my outcomes: San Antonio Win Sacramento Win LA Clippers Win Seattle Win Utah Win Phoenix Loss ------------------ Note: It was my cowhead. I started the cowhead craze, and my cowhead inspired Mooch to step up and bring us a victory. Thank you for your time.
Absolutely... S.A.-L SAC-W L.A.-W SEA-W UTAH-L PHO-W PLAYOFF BOUND!!!!!!!!!! ------------------ Whatever you want to do, you have to do something else first. [This message has been edited by mr_oily (edited March 16, 2001).]
Spurs- L 89-87 Kings- L 112-89 Clips- L 95-92 Sonics- L 88-82 Jazz- L 99-90 Suns- L 85-71 ------------------ My dream job is to be a Houston Rockets towel boy.
I won't go so far as to predict scores but I'll do W or L. vs. SA - W Finally beat the Spurs. @ Sacramento - L We have a tough time with them and they are playing great now that Webber is back. @ LA Clippers - W It better be! @ Seattle - W We play great on the road and Seattle is slumping. vs. Utah - L As much as I want it, the Jazz are just monsters right now. vs. Phoenix - W Avenge that loss in the desert. @ Washington - W Franchise out to please the home crowd. @ New Jersey - W Even a back to back won't hurt. Rockets have been awesome in back to back's. vs. Dallas - L Rockets have owned them, but this will be a tough loss. vs. Seattle - L Tough loss but a loss none-the-less. vs. Atlanta - W See the Clipper game. @ Utah - L Utah hurts the Rocks at home. vs. Denver - W A tough home win on a travel day of a back to back. Rockets will be pissed about their loss to Utah. @ Portland - L With a back to back looming and a big game with the T-Wolves, this is a tough loss. @ Vancouver - W Francis last visit to Vancouver since the Grizz will be set to leave after this year. Expect a HUGE game from franchise. vs. Minnesota - W Could be the biggest game of the year not just because of the playoff implications but because of the raucous crowd of ClutchCity.net and SaveOurRockets.com fans! That puts us 10-6 going out. Will it be enough to eclipse Minnesota or Phoenix? We'll have to see. It will give the Rocks 47 wins, which is amazing considering their 34 win season last year. ------------------ "Oh, God. I wish I was a loufa."
I disagree with the Sonic lost and the Spurs r red hot at the moment so I doubt if the Rocks can win that one but the rest sounds reasonable to me except for the scores. If I was an optimist I'd say we'll win all the games but I'm not. This recent streak has been built on some clutch performance from some unlikely and obviopus sources. To maintain that and break the hoodoo against the best in this top-heavy West...it's too much. Every game is do or die b/c we can't rely on other results to favour us. ------------------ "The man who goes alone can start today; but he who travels with another must wait till the other is ready." -HDT
6 - 0. I'm an optimist. At least two games come down to the final possession, and at least one goes to overtime. ------------------ The Rockets will be the NBA champions. Believe.
San Antonio - Win Sacramento - Win LA Clippers - Win Seattle - Win Utah - Win Phoenix - Win That should do it . . . ------------------ What can change the nature of a man?
They lose 'em all except to the Clippers and may my predictive abilities be as accurate as always. ------------------
My Predictions San Antonio Loss 92-88 if w/o Steve Loss 86-65 at Sacramento Loss 110-97 at LA Clippers Win 98-84 at Seattle Loss 96-94 Utah Win 96-89 Phoenix Win 105-92 Man, I hope I'm wrong but I feel these predictions are reasonable. I just find it hard to believe that the Rockets could win 47 games this year, the same as their 1995 team and not even get in. I'll be at the game against the Spurs JBII ------------------
Jeff, you think the Sonics are going to win the series with the Rockets 3-1? You've got to be kidding me. It will more likely be the other way around. ------------------ Hakeem "The Dream" Olajuwon is the greatest player in the history of basketball. If you disagree, you are not a Rocket fan.
We don't play in Utah anymore this season? ------------------ President of the Steve Francis, Jamal Crawford,Larry Hughes, and Charles Woodson fan club.
I think we do in April at some point... just not the game we were talking about in this thread (5 games from now). ------------------ "We're not settling for just getting in the playoffs."
