As long as we're in the playoffs with no lower then a 7th seed we're fine. I don't mind playing anyone in the first round aside from San Antonio. The Spurs are super tough and I'd rather fact them in the 2nd round or WCFs.
And I think we'll drop to 7th. Memphis has an easy schedule in March. Out of 14 games they play Only 4 teams that are even playoff bound. Seattle, Kings, Chicago, and Phoenix. The rest?? They play NO twice, Port twice, NJ, GS, Toronto, Utah, Minnesota, and Clippers
Yeah, Memphis is rolling. I do believe that the Rockets will level off a bit in March and probably get the 7th spot. But at least we will be in the playoffs!
Definitely awesome, but 7th puts us up against phoenix or SA. No small task indeed . But we'll make it tough for either one of them.
