People told me this was going to happen at the beginning of the year. 75% through the season, all is well. I can't wait to see Houston coast into the 2nd round while T-Mac watches in disbelief.

Doesn't matter because of the little thing they call the first round of the playoffs.....

the hornets? yes they are

houston is 4.5 ahead of phoenix


Houston has a huge showdown tomorrow vs Utah, they are the 2 hottest teams in the league right now, it should be a great game.

I'll put my money on Utah. Houston is too young right now. And the Rafer trade=DUMB

Utah should be favored, they are playing at home. And it's way too early to say the Rafer trade was dumb, Lowry is very good and Houston is playing as well now as they have all year.

Yeh, but even though I like Brooks he is very inexperienced. In the playoffs he is bound to make some mistakes.

Experience as an attribute is overrated.

He hasn't been as consistent as Rafer has in the last year or 2, but he has the potential to go off for 20+ any given night, something Rafer couldn't really do.

I agree at certain positions that it is over-rated, but not for a PG

Yeh, i agree with you there. I just cant put the rockets comparing to most of the teams in the East. Especially when it comes to the dreaded word "playoffs"

I love how Boom thinks the Rockets are so much better than the Hornets, yet both teams have the EXACT amount of losses.

The Rockets are 3-2 against the top 3 teams in the East, including a recent 20 point beatdown of the Cavs (Post Rafer Trade), and wins on the road against Boston and Orlando (The win against Orlando was when they had Jamir Nelson).

It's been obvious to most Rockets fans that T-Mac has been a detriment to the Rockets the last couple years, and now that he's out we're a much better team.

They've just played more games than we have. Watch while we go on a 5 games in 7 days trip and shoot past Houston and Denver.
