    Suns: 42-36 (All of the Suns coming up games are very tough)
    Golden State Warriors
    San Antonio Spurs
    at: Portland Trail Blazers
    Seatle Sonics

    Rockets: 40-39 (They should blow out the next 3 components if they know what 40+3 is)
    Seatle SuperSonics
    Memphis Grizzlies
    at: Denver Nuggets

    If Rockets win 2 more games, then they're 42-40
    If Phonix lose 4 games, then they're 42-40

    If Rockets win 3 games, then they're 43-39
    If Phonix lose 3 games, then they're 43-39

    How many times need Rockets to prove that you are an idiot?
    Hell if sun lose all 4 games, we just need win 2 of last three, so the next one isnt exactly a must win ... :mad: :mad: :mad:

    All of the games are must wins. There should be no reason that we should base all of our hope and chances the Suns loosing all or the majority of their final games. Even if we don't have a shot at the playoffs, you don't want to end the season having gotten pounded by the Blazers and the Jazz and putting on poor performances in the final three games. Of course not, the Rockets want to wrap it up on a high note, playing like studs, so during this overly long offseason they have something to build on and look forward to for the next season.

    i think most rocket players right now have given up... so i don't expect them to put up much of a fight...

    they got their fat contracts... nothing for them to get worked up about.. they have their vacations to look foward to...

    Well guys we pretty much predicted the Rockets would lose to Portland and Utah, but nobody in their right mind even people in Phoenix expected the Suns to beat Dallas. That was not just a beating it was a blow out. Heck, they almost defeated LA.

    The Rockets thought Phoenix will play ugly 1 win 1 loss ball like we are, but when it was down for the taking Phoenix have been monsters. Not just going to the playoffs is the issue but i would'nt be surprised if Seattle passed us in the standings. There is a new team i hate now and they are called the Suns, move over Stockton and Malone here comes Marbury and Amare :mad:

    I find it curious that the last good game was in the retro unis and since then, two abysmal games. This is the swan song of the pajama curse and it's a doozy.

    Rockets are not good enough to be in the Playoffs They need more talents, in particular better shooters..

    As if you wanted to see them play the Spurs or Mavs in the 1st round. They simply are not ready. Talent they have. Consistency they don't. The fact that the 1st round has become a best-of-seven series would only prolong our misery. One win at best. Phoenix may steal 2 games, but no more.

    What are you talking about?

    Suns will most like face the Spurs in round one, they currently lead season series between the two 2-1 with a game in Phoenix coming. And Spurs had to go into overtime to get their lone win against the Suns.

    I am not saying Suns are better team than the Spurs but they match Spurs really well and have given Spurs fits all season long.

    Almost all Spurs fans consider Rox a cakewalk but are kinda worried about the Suns -- I guess that tells you something.

    Suns are playing great ball. They just beat the Mavs and played the Lakers very tough. I dont see the suns collapsing and I certainly dont see the rockets winning out. Face it weve seen the worst to come.

    You have to hand it to the Rockets...I thought their playoff hopes would get shattered a couple weeks ago...
