Over the Yao/Tmac era I've learned not to get too high or low about the rockets, so I'll just take this win streak for what it is.........and what it is, is amazing b-ball. Hopefully we matchup with the right opponent in the 1st round, so we can AT LEAST win one playoff series. I really don't see us doing anything beyond that (because of Yao being out and the fact that I still doubt tmac...........a lot), but I'm glad to see them at least playing good right now..........
The sports media is so horrible. Houston has put together an impressive win streak and we barely hear about it.
It'll most likely get up to 16 games with a win over Indiana tonight, but Dallas after that will be hard.
16 wins! T-Mac moving a little fast, talking about a championship after the game. Nevertheless, this win streak has been very entertaining, and I just hope it continues tomorrow in Dallas. The best thing about these wins is we are beating teams by double digits, and rarely ever trailing in games. This is our 7th double digit win in a row. Take that...whats his name...Stephen Smith, as if the Rockets care about what you have to say. I can't believe the crap that comes out of this guys mouthe, he was saying the Rockets are sensitive and didn't like hearing what he said about them not making the playoffs. pfffffff
We are finally playing as a team. Moving quicker up and down the court. If we can get key wins over Dallas and Hornets coming up, I see us winning at least 20 games with Charlotte, Atlanta, and New Jersey coming up next. Rockets are finally playing their best basketball in a long time and it sucks that it's without Yao. If we get paired up with either Jazz or Hornets, I think we'll advance this year. But we say this every year, so I'm not putting my hopes up too high.
that ticket stub will be framed..........I have tickets to the hornets game on Saturday, but I don't know if I'll be able to make it................ but game notes Tmac looked good the 1st half, I wish he would've driven more in the 2nd half instead of chucking up more jumpers, but overall he had a pretty good game Rafer continues to be very good for us this season......I don't think anyone can really complain about his play this year for the most part Landry + Scola = maybe the best PF tandem in the NBA.....I love watching these 2 play Luther looked good last night also....nice shooting and he even penetrated a lil bit..... I hope we get 17 tonight in Dall-ass.
But if it doesn't end against the Hornets, we play some really bad teams afterwards. New Jersey Atlanta Charlotte If we win the next 4, we will have the second best win streak in NBA history! Then I will collect $10 from my friend after we beat the Lakers, and I have tickets to the Boston Celtics game after. I predict our streak ends after that game against the Hornets. I am getting way ahead of myself, but all this team has is the regular season, so I might as well make the most of it.
I am loving the way Rockets are playing as of late. I just hope they keep their fast-paced game going and keep their streak alive. If we beat the Hornets, we have the potential to beat the 3 teams after that as well. I love the Rockets and it'll be great if they can move up the standings, yet still get a good matchup in playoffs.

I didn't know the Rockets were suddenly a lock every night against the Hornets. I must have missed that breaking news story.
^^^the city of boston sucks............at everything in life. but 18 straight.........all I can say is wow.............I'm still not getting too up for this just, because I've been let down in the past, but I hope they keep winning and I hope tmac proves me wrong this year, so I can delete the nasty facebook group I have calling him a cupcake........

They are coming to our house this time, and I am going to that game The Rockets are 3-0 when in the games I've been to. 1)06-07 Season Opener against the Dallas Mavericks 30 point blowout without T-Mac 2)Game 1 of the 06-07 Rockets-Jazz Playoffs (I think we won by 10) 3)Game 2 " " (I think we won by 9) 4-0? My fanaticism is contagious.
No doubt about it, the Rockets are playing the best basketball in the league, even if a few douchebags don't give our team any credit for it.
