lockmat Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 I don't care that the Rockets don't have Yao. Are we a better team with him? Yes. But most NBA Champs only have one superstar anyway. Look it. We've still got Tracy and he's playin well.Charles just said the Rockets will lose tonight and that we haven't played anyone during our streak. I love Charles, but he's speakin like a dang fool!The best teams we've beat during our 20 wins out of 21 games...Spurs by 2Blazers by 10Warriors by 4Cavs by 15Blazers by 12Cavs by 8Hornets by 20Nuggets by 14Maybe you could leave out the Blazers and Cavs. Still, he's speakin like a fool. It's possible that the Rox lose tonight. Better teams sometimes lose to worse teams. I hope we win though so we can shut everyone up.

Trae Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 My prediction is that the Mavericks will halt Houston's win streak tonight in a devastating loss. . .even without Dirk NovitzkiYou were saying? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mister X Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 (edited) Don't you ever get tired of being wrong, 214to713? You better be glad the internet is anonymous or you would have to wear a paper bag over your head 27/7. You have such a severe case of asshole-ism, it isn't even funny. Well, maybe a little funny.

lockmat Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 I'm really glad we won. But was it just me, or was that game really boring?I'm glad we shut Charles up, too.And Rafer is playing OUT OF HIS MIND. I can't believe this is the same guy. This guy needs to take off the mask and reveal who he really is. wowOne thing that did kind of scare me is the impact Dampier had. Hopefully we won't have to face Shaq in the playoffs, but if we're gonna get to the finals, I'm willing to bet we're going we'll have to face Duncan. And not only him, but Ginobli is goin off too.I think we can do it, but it'll be tough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
713 To 214 Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 (edited) You were saying? We didn't have Dirk. What did you expect? Seriously, though, I didn't really believe the Mavericks would win. They're not playing very good right now. The Rockets however are on a roll. Better hope they aren't showing they're playoff muscle too soon. The second season is a little different than the regular season. Edited March 7, 2008 by 713 To 214 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The second season is a little different than the regular season. Dirk is always soft against the Rockets. When we get up in his grill, he can't make shots. I'm not too worried about him.

wernicke Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 It is true the Mavs have owned us for a while. But last night's game was awesome... I'm loving the up-tempo play sans Yao Ming (of course I wish we still had Yao though).Landry/Scola are just awesome players... they are making Morey look as brilliant as everyone thinks he is...

RedScare Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 Whoever wins the Western Conference Championship this year will be flat out lucky. No matter who it is, they will have to run a gauntlet of the best teams in the NBA. If the playoffs started today, the Lakers would have to beat the Mavs, New Orleans and San Antonio. The Spurs would have to beat Golden State, Utah or Houston, and the Lakers. Houston would have to go through Utah, SA and the Lakers.While any of these teams is good enough to do it, to predict it is nothing more than a guess.

banking214 Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 I am loving the Rockets right now. I was a little weary with Yao out, but the Rockets are holding it together and looking better than ever. Bring on New Orleans and win 18! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trae Posted March 9, 2008 Share Posted March 9, 2008 (edited) ^^Yeah, the Rockets were raining those three's. We didn't have Dirk. What did you expect? Seriously, though, I didn't really believe the Mavericks would win. They're not playing very good right now. The Rockets however are on a roll. Better hope they aren't showing they're playoff muscle too soon. The second season is a little different than the regular season. And The Rockets didn't have Yao. It's a trade off.

Chamo Posted March 13, 2008 Share Posted March 13, 2008 Not pretty last night.... But they are up to 20 and counting!I'm glad the Hawks were not able to end another Rockets streak as they did in the 90's (15). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lockmat Posted March 13, 2008 Share Posted March 13, 2008 Question. Would you rather lose tomorrow nights game and win vs. the Lakers on Sunday, or Win tomorrow nights game to stretch the streak to 21 and lose to the Lakers? As of now we're tied for 2nd longest. We win tomorrow, we're by ourself. A win Sunday brings more credibility. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KimberlySayWhat Posted March 13, 2008 Author Share Posted March 13, 2008 They've been lagging the last couple of games, but a win is a win in the end. One game at a time. I hope they at least win whoever they're playing tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But my mind says we need to beat the Lakers so that we can pick up a full game in the standings.Gotta love Deke in the Daily Dime on ESPN.com this morning:"The Rockets have won 20 games straight.

Fringe Posted March 13, 2008 Share Posted March 13, 2008 They are only a game and a half behind the Lakers now. Wouldn't it be cool if they win Friday and then Sundays' Laker game be for the #1 seed? Man it doesn't seem that long ago we were wondering if the Rockets could even get into the playoffs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sifuwong Posted March 14, 2008 Share Posted March 14, 2008 (edited) The streak will probably end on Sunday. I hope not, but more than likely. Remember, that after Friday, the Rockets play the Lakers, Celtics, Hornets, Warriors and Suns. This could determine where our seeding is. There is only like 3-4 games separating 1st thru 8th seed. A two to three game losing streak can mean the end of a season. Edited March 14, 2008 by sifuwong Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
