lol, now our schedule is "unfair" do you see the Spurs and the Lakers? they are on 9 game road trips right now and they aren't complaining about their "unfair" schedules! we just need to clamp down and look forward...
T-Mac may not play tonight. We are so close to the playoffs and he may not play. Really hopes that he plays.
We're still far from the Playoffs, but we need T-Mac tonight, a win would be huge and would bring us 0.5 behind the Warriors and Nuggets (Warriors are playing tonight and I think they'll beat the Bulls). Anyway, this is a decisive stretch at home before the All Star break. We need to win those 4 games.
Looking at the teams in the West, 50 wins - almost a lock in the playoffs 49 wins - highly probable 48 wins - probable 47 wins - iffy 46 wins - unlikely So, for the rest of the season if our percentage (or number of losses) is .647 (12) - almost a lock in the playoffs .617 (13) - highly probable .588 (14) - probable* .559 (15) - iffy .529 (16) - unlikely * This is our current rate In other words, we are right on the cusp. A relatively short good streak will give us a great chance of making it; an even shorter bad streak will doom us.
Good point. But if the Rockets want to make something special this year in the Playoffs (by that I mean that the team's aim is not only to make the Playoffs), they need at least 50 wins (48 to the very least). This means beating teams having a better record. It's more than possible, I believe we'll get more than 50 wins. BucMan55, I ment by "far from the Playoffs" that we have still a long way to go, and that even though this stretch will give us a huge boost in the winning direction, we have to play consistently all the way. I have confidence, I know this team will make the Playoffs. But it takes effort at every game. The West is so good this year that the Rockets are in a situation where every game is nearly a must win, considering that the other teams are winning aswell. I think the Rockets can beat any team, but they have to compete, as they have in the past month.
Hey guys, there a bad news. According to ESPN radio, that deal is getting lot serious!!! Nene Linas Kleiza JR Smith Eduardo Najera Future 2nd round pick for Ron Artest Mike Bibby Sac and Den. Hope that dont happen. THe nuggets are going to get a lot better and that could make it hard for us to make the playoffs.
What the hell, why would you trade Kleiza? He's playing out of his mind. And does that mean AI would move over to shooting guard? This deal doesn't smell right to me.
If Bibby joins Denver,AI can move to SG.Kleiza is doing great,but they would probably have to include him in order to get both Artest and Bibby.I would like to know if this potential deal fits under the salary cap?
Didn't anybody else hear Nelson on the mic tell his players that they couldn't afford to lose the game? How sweet it is! Thank you Bulls.
so GS and Houston are both 29-20, portaland is 28-20 and denver is 29-19 so wtf happens if there is a 3 way or 4 way tie at the END OF THE SEASON for the 8th seed!!?? yea i know regular season records come next, but thats with 2 TEAMS, what about 3 or 4 like we have now, and really possibly could happen
Some key games tonight for us: Lakers At Orlando Magics are great team and they are at home. They can win that one. If Lakers lose they will have their 18th lose. Portland at Detroit Good news, Roy may not play because of some personal problem. Also, they are not at home. There s lot of chances that they may lose. Washington at Denver: We all know that Wizards can beat Denver. We ll see if they will win. Hope that they win. Utah at Sacramento Good one for us but not that important.
