There are 9 games left: LAC @ Suns @ LAL Blazers Magic (Back 2 Back) @ Kings @ Warriors Hornets @Mavs Five on the road four at home. Only 2 non playoff teams, and they are on the road and back to back. With nearly every one of these teams fighting for playoff seeding, I think it's safe to say we are in store for some entertaining basketball!!! Rockets go 8-1 and tie their regular season record from last year. But, instead of back-pedaling into the post season like last year, the Rockets will enter the playoffs as the hottest team in the NBA. (Would be nice right???) However it plays out though, it should be a nice "dressed rehearsal" for the playoffs.
LAC - W @PHX - W @ LAL - L POR - W ORL - W @SAC - W @GS - W NO - W @DAL - W (unless there is NOTHING to play for, otherwise, doesn't matter) 8-1 or 7-2...AT WORST...6-3.
out on a limb...we go 7-2..lose to LAC and PHX...win the rest of the way. I had a theory that the rockets would be the hottest team goin into the playoffs...a 7 game streak helps that. But honestly...that prediction was early in the season WITH T-MAC.
W LAC W @ Suns L @ LAL L Blazers W Magic (Back 2 Back) W @ Kings L @ Warriors W Hornets L @Mavs 5-4 52-30 season
when they flashed up the Jazz' remaining shcedule, inparticular their road games.....whew....if they don't turn it on, we may not have to even worry about them in the playoffs at all. Talk about brutal.
Im hoping for 6-3 actually be realistic with Landry in question. But most teams do have at least 2 more games left than us so some teams may be coming off a game when they play us as well.
Because Yao always plays great against DH while keeping him in check... And we already beat them @ Orlando.
Yao's number is so much better than Dhoward in head to head match up, and plus Rafer is a Rockets at heart, so he is going to go 1-12 shootings for us
