I'm hoping for 0-16. We are not making the playoffs, Im just being real. Lets at least get a quality big in this years draft.
Not even one win? You're really hoping for that kind of failure? Please become a fan of another team ASAP. Our guys aren't thinking that way, and neither is DM. The Tracy trade provided us with draft picks and contracts to use this summer during free agency. We might as well fight during this season. I see it as a win-win.

Well, before you get real, go do some homework. You want a big man? Look at the draft boards. The top 20 (which we will land around 13-16) breaks down like this: C - 4 PF - 8 SF - 3 SG - 3 (projected #2, #16, #17) PG - 2 (projected #1 and #20) 60% of the top 20 are big men. It couldn't be more obvious that a PF/C is exactly what DM is targeting. If you listened to his podcast with simmons, he even discusses that it would be much easier to get a quality talent at the 4/5 than the 2. Which is exactly why he had to part with Mandry. I know that makes a lot of people really butt hurt, but I think it was a great decision for the organization. The only thing going 0-16 through the month of march does for the Rockets as an organization, is make them that much more unattractive to any potential FAs. You aren't one of the Chris Bosh for 2011 advocates are you? Rest assured, a big man you will get first and foremost.

Don't know why people expect the team to suddenly win more games when they haven't shown much consistency these past few games. I'm going with 8-8, just as their record indicates.

I really should give more respect to OKC and not have referred to them as "Kevin Durant." They are playing incredibly well this year and have a great nucleus in Westbrook and Green. Still, I'd prefer the Rockets to have a better record. Envious? Absolutely.
I wonder if people realize the Rockets are 3-0 against them this year. They should start to cool off here any time now. If the Rockets can win their next 6 (very possible) they could get some real momentum going and get in position for the playoffs. Ariza and Lowry will be back soon and Martin has shown he can pretty much score at will.

Why do so many think we will lose to the Raptors, if Bosh is out, like he has been, we should beat them, and depending on the rest of schedule,we'll see, depending on which Celtics team shows up will determine that winner, the ones that played the Nets yesterday, we'll win, the wannabe championship style, they win. Side question, anyone know when Kyle & Trevor are supposed to be back?
