Remember when everybody thought that we would lose to okc,LAL and Chicago. You saw what happened we came back and beat okc in an upset, thanks to Bynum forgetting ejected twice we beat the lakers and we beat Chicago even though rose wasn't playing. So we might have a chance to win these games
I will admit, this season has probably been the most stressful for me. To many close games and to many close ones that have not gone our way. Our Coach needs to complain more. He needs to get mad, fire the team up. Im tired of hearing him say " come on guys lets go " -fist bump. I really am missing adelmans offense right now. The Princeton offense is just so powerful.
Anybody else rather have that lotto pick? I would prefer it, i mean this team isn't going anywhere so what is the playoffs gonna do for us? Were in the hunt for the playoffs and our fans are leaving the toyota center half empty, les your plan didn't work. We need a top pick we have been holding this of far enough, when teams loose they're star player(s) THE next year they have a top pick and are ready to start rebuilding with they're center piece(s). Why must it be different for us?/
Morey could put something together to get us a Lottery Pick when the draft comes. For the City of Houston and its fans, we deserve a shot at the playoffs.
Well the next 4 games are 5 nights. Back-to-back - one the road, one day off, back-to-back. The 1st back-to-back against Dallas and New Orleans will be extremely tough.
After a night of thinking, I STILL BELIEVE. LET'S GO ROCKETS. BEAT THE MAVS!!!! The suns have a brutal b2b coming up as well. Hopefully utah loses some (I think they will). Still all in our hands. If we win at least 4 out of 5, we should be in. If we don't, say goodbye to playoffs
Need to get all 5 in order to feel secure in getting into the playoffs. It will be do or die tomorrow. I hope McHale stays in H-Town and lets Sampson coach the team tomorrow. Need to play the bigs in the 4th quarter, go with twin tower lineup to end every game from here on.
I'll see if the Rockets have a chance after the Miami game!! I still have a little bit of hope left in me!!
What would've been a very tough stretch to finish the season has suddenly become manageable situation. Orlando games, along with the two Portland games have turned in Utah's favor. No Dwight Howard, No Lamarcus Aldridge, as Portland is somewhat heading into tank mode. Phoenix has the toughest road, no cupcakes, all playoff teams and playoff contenders. OKC, LA Clippers, Denver, Utah, and SA. With that being said, 4 of those are home games. Realistically, they could get into the playoffs with 3 wins. Houston has the easiest schedule, though the Dallas and Miami games might be kind of tough. New Orleans and Golden State are tricky. If they come out with a little valor, then those games might be kind of tough. If New York can somehow finish one game below Philly and Milwaukee, we will have a lottery pick. I really hope they can blow I want that PICK so bad and DISLIKE THE KNICKS, their players, their fans, their management, and their city.
Utah has the easiest schedule without a doubt especially when you factor in that they are one of the best home teams in the league. If they beat Portland on the road they probably win all four.
Are you kidding? they NEED us in the playoffs.... who else would put up with the abuse that we do? Book it.
Destiny still in their own hands. Win all 5 games remaining and they are in the playoffs. No need to worry about which teams wins or loses, need to win them all.
