Granted we face three hot teams this week in Boston, Minnesota, and Orlando, check out Phoenix's schedule for the week: they just lost to Philly today, then Orlando, Miami, NY, and Utah. For as dissapointing as that Orlando loss was on Friday, the Rockets have nevertheless won 5 of 6. Hopefully that trend will cary over into this week. For all the talk that's been going on, we're about to see just how badly the Rockets want that 8th playoff spot. ------------------
I think this Boston game is the key. I think boston has won like the last 2 of 3 against the rockets.Also, they are confident right now, so thats always dangerous.It would be nice to get 2 games over .500 for once. I'm just worried they wont get up for this game. I know they'll be ready for Orlando, Minnesota, and definitely Portland, but Boston is scary right now. ------------------
I get the feeling that Minnesota has cooled off considerable, they have lost 3 in a row, and are only leading by 2 at halftime at home against the Grizz. ------------------ "GiddyUP!!!" Krammer from Seinfeld
I agree RocketRam, I think Minnesota peaked a bit too early. Now if the Rockets could just keep building on what they have been doing, they might be able to get all cylinders pumping by the time the playoffs roll around!
