Memphis Grizzlies:___(36-33)_____.522 _________ +3 _______________ 13 ______ The Rockets are moving in the right direction. They have increased their winning streak by 2 games and have inched .5 games closer to Portland while surpassing Memphis in the standings. They are still 4.5 games out of the playoffs but have 3 more games remaining than Portland that might prove valuable by seasons end. Let's hope Kyle Lowry makes a speedy recovery and is ready by tomorrow nights game against the Celtics. Regardless, the Rockets will have to be hitting on all cylinders tomorrow night to pull off a big win. Keep an eye out Friday for the following games: 1. Oklahoma City vs. Toronto --> Need Toronto to win 2. Golden State vs. San Antonio --> Need Golden State to win 3. Utah vs. Phoenix --> Need Utah to win 4. Washington vs. Portland --> Need Washington to win
Portland has gone into their comfort zone of this season already. There's little to no chance we are going to replace their playoff seat. If Rockets is going to gain a spot in this playoff, the victim will be either Spurs or Thunder.
The Spurs have a pretty rough schedule coming up...just look at it. It's all contenders pretty much for the next ten games. Plus they play the Rockets in there as well. If we can win all our remaining games, I think we sneak in....barely.
