    As of now we've been much hotter on the road then at home. The road streak lives.

    It's really tough and hard.

    Thanks to the 22 w streak. If we lose 5 of them, we will probably out of playoffs.

    It's too early to say next season, but I really think we can do a big show.

    Agreed. We're gonna lose more than a half of our remaining games and go on a mad losing streak and get off the playoffs race.

    Playoffs? No Way!

    Really?

    I can understand the loss tomorrow. I think we'll win 1 out of the 2 games after that (GSW/PHO). I think we beat Sacramento, beat San Antonio, and we're all good again.

    your moniker...

    Look i'm not saying we will lose all 3, im just saying we will not win all 3.

    hope i'm wrong, but bet i'm not.

    hopefully we can grab the Hornets and Warriors games.

    Suns we can beat but on the night after a track meet with the Warriors is not our best chance to do it.

    That's harsh. Not everyone reads every thread.

    Cheer up. The loss sucked, but it still doesn't diminish the streak and it definitely doesn't change the fact that we are going to the playoffs.

    The Celtics loss wasn't a conference loss.

    Our Magic Number to clinch over Denver is 10. They have a brutal schedule with a lot of road games where they are terrible.

    We still have 8 games left against very subpar West teams.

    It's not only likely but almost certain that you can get a combinations of 10 Rocket wins and Nugget losses. Drop the number to 9 if we beat them in Denver on April 9.

    I still think we have an excellent shot at the #1 seed. We were always going to lose 4-5 of the last 9 tough games we had. We beat LA, lost to the Celtics. We need to try to get 3-4 more of the tough games on our schedule and hammer the weak teams left on your schedule.

    BELIEVE IT
