    We have a chance and I think we will. As I speak we are only 5.5 games behind them thats not a lot to make up with 35 games left anything can happen. I think the Hornets will lose a few more games while we are still winning and that will put us right there with them.

    I think we can replace Nuggets to get to the playoffs...

    One game behind Nuggets for the 8th spot..

    If the Nuggets keep playing medicore, they will be out of the 8th spot by All-Star break.

    Ya think? ;)

    Even if we don't get in there is no way someone can say 'no way' now since we are right on the cusp. It follows that making the claim back then has now been proven wrong, regardless of what happens from now.

    Thank you Rockets for embarassing the haters. But please keep it up. :)

    Bulls just beat GW. Now Rox and GW tie at 8th in West.

    So what is your current stance on the Rockets playoff chances?

    BrooksBall is exposed. Rockets tied for eighth seed.

    Rockets have same record as GSW and are 0.5 game behind the 7th seeded Nuggets.

    Nuggets have a 3 game road trip coming up and they are a poor road team. They have a 9-13 road record.

    Warriors lost to a injury ridden Bulls team without Luol Deng, Kirk Hinrich, and Ben Gordon. Warriors failed to put their will on this game and lost to the Bulls.

    The Bulls had half of their starters on the bench in street clothes.

    Exposed I am... for having an opinion. :confused:

    If the Rockets do make the playoffs (something they haven't done yet), I will be happy to have been such a poor prognosticator.

    I don't think Brooksball is a hater. I'm sure he'll more than glad to eat his own words.

    I don't think he is apologizing. He is now advanced into bargain stage. ;)

    Disagree. Basically, you talked down Rox. Lets see an example, you are in a big tournament, and you have played several bad games at the beginning. Your "good" friends start to say: you are not good enough, no chance to win, quit please, you need to wait another year, no way, you lack killer instinct, other players are much better than you, they are elite, you are a bottom fish, .... But later, you play better and better, get in the playoffs, and even may win the tournament. How do you think?
