    .......i was just wondering, what was the rockets win-loss record in the second half of the season, compared to the first half??

    because, i seem to remember the rockets playing a lot better, more like a team in the latter half of last season. and i was just trying to make some prediction as to what out record will be at the end of the season??

    anyone?

    Through 40 games last season...

    We were 16-24. The 40th game was against the Heat, <a href="http://www.clutchcity.net/game.cfm?gameID=40">we won 101-88</a>. Through the first 34 games we were actually 10-24, but won 6 straight from there.

    So this season we're 4 games ahead of where we were last season.

    Only 4 games ahead? Not much improvement there. Of course, the first half this year was much harder than last year.

    Not to mention we've had a few injuries that well, left us with no front line.

    If we stay the course that would give us an 8 game improvement over last year. I would take a 42 and 40 record. Considering the toughest part of our schedule is behind us and we have a ton of eastern conference games coming up I think we will see a dramatic improvement in the secound half of the season. I could see us finnishing with 45 to 47 wins if our front court can get healthy and stay healthy for the remainder of the season.

    Consider also that the West is tougher than it was last year.

    We're probably gonna need at least 45 wins to make the playoffs.
