    As soon as Rudy T went down, the Rockets lost there chance at the Play-offs. We can still make it, but as each game goes by the more I think they will not.

    Rox: 38-37
    4 Fri @ Philadelphia L
    6 Sun Orlando L
    8 Tue Portland L
    9 Wed @ Utah L
    12 Sat Seattle W
    15 Tue Memphis W
    16 Wed @ Denver W
    Final:41-41

    Suns:39 35
    5 Sat Minnesota L
    6 Sun @ L.A. Lakers L
    8 Tue @ Denver W
    9 Wed Dallas L
    11 Fri Golden State W (We better hope Golden State plays hard for Yao, because this game is what will discide if we make the play-offs or not.)
    13 Sun San Antonio L
    15 Tue @ Portland L
    16 Wed @ Seattle W
    Final: 42-40 or 41-41 if Golden State wins

    The only saving grace here is that all our losses came to playoff teams. Oh wait, that sucks too.

    If this team has any heart they will take the last spot. We're about to find out what this team is made of.

    IMO golden state and seattle games against phoenix will determine whether or not houston will make the playoffs..

    and of course the rocks winning most of their games..

    You just keep thinking that.

    No Virginia, there isn't a Santa Clause, he was shot down by an Iraqi short range ballistic missil...we're having an imagination Christmas this year...

    Do you realize that the last game Steve "went off" in the Delta Center was the first time the Rockets have won in Steve's 7 visits to Utah? Sorry to say but the Delta Center is tougher than the Bradley Center and as much as I dislike Malone, he's more of an inside presence than Pryzbilla, Earvin Johnson, Gadzuric, Tim Thomas and Kukoc.

    I appreciate your optimism, but going back to my original point the Rockets may have to win both the Utah and Orlando games or they run the risk of PHX needing the POR game to clinch with the Blazers resting players.

    They make it. We don't. They just beat the Timberwolves. We HAVE TO WIN AGAINST ORLANDO. And we need to somehow win against Portland or Utah. Just one will be enough. I hope...and hopefully...Golden State can beat Pheonix. Or Seattle can beat them. Our chances aren't too good. It won't matter. They will be crushed by the Mavericks. And we will be getting a new coach and some good players via trades!

    You'd better rework your math. Suns have just blown out Wolves.

    Wow, most people on this board are awful at predictions. I'm not correct all the time, but I predict much better than most.
