    If Dalembert and Camby can't go expect Patterson to start. He's 1 of 14 vs. Dallas.

    ...which will cost him $6,000,000 when we don't re-up him for next year.

    (And so it continues. Sayeth Morey: I want that pick!)

    I vote we lose them all; time to tank. As long as you have a chance, play with all your heart. When you have no real chance, tank.

    I think it's too late to tank, if we lose all 5 we have at best like the 12th pick. I;d rather get our obligation to NJ out of the way.

    I totaly agree. Only if K-Mart gets back on the floor and Camby. We have a shot to win out and gain all the momentum for the playoffs.

    Lets re-fuel and lift off Rockets!!!!

    Considering this up and down season and what our current indicates...... Since we lost 4 in a row that means we will WIN the next 5 in a row.

    Apparently the Rockets players were told by the coaching staff that if they win 3 of 5, we got a 60% chance to get in. If we win 4 out of 5, we'll make it.

    Here we go again...

    “Coaches broke down the percentages,” guard Courtney Lee said. “If we win three out of five (games), it’s a 66 percent chance we’re in. If we win four out of five, it’s almost guaranteed we’re in so that’s what we have to do. Go out there and win out. Every game is a playoff game.”

    The way I feel is this team showed they weren't ready for the playoff party. But if the went 4-1 or 5-0 then that would show me something. Maybe the Lowry turmoil is for real and finishing the season strong could mean we are past it.

    I hate that ****, just tell them to win every game and give themselves a chance.

    Percentages don't mean crap, just take care of your own business.

    AGREED!! why the hell are they breaking out the excel spreadsheets?

    The answer should always be "just win."

    I'd like to know which coach told them it's almost guaranteed that they get in if they win 4 out of 5.

    what is wrong with this team?? It looks like they couldn't care less about embarrrassing themselves 3 out of last 4 games and probably missing the playoffs? Not a single player is saying anything that they should be embarrased, this cannot happen, they should donate the salary for at least these last 4 games for not bringing in the effort or anything like that.

    Starting to dislike their attitude and **** percentages, there's still not a sense or urgency. Why in the world would you basically tell your players it's okay to lose 2 more games since you still have a chance to make the playoffs :confused: This doesn't make sense and I am dissapointed by all of this. Even under Adelman you wouldn't hear this kind of talk and he would;ve been really pissed, better believe that.

    Starting to think McHale's toughness is a sham and he doesn't even hold his players accountable. The way he talks after today's practice is still the same old **** he's been talking all year: "need to get rebounds, make shots, get stops..". He always says the game is simple, maybe it's more complicated than he thinks or he's just stupid.

    It is Morey's philosophy to use excel sheets and percentages :mad:
