    Houston, we have a problem - With 9 games left and 4 of them on the road, the Rockets will lose at least 3 games, putting them at 54-28. I have them losing to Toronto tonight, then OKC and SA at home. They may even lose on the road to either Minny, LAL or NO.

    Portland, on the other hand, should not lose another game this season. While it will be tough to beat Phoenix, GS and LAC at home, I think they will now that they seem to have their mojo back. I have them going 6-0 and ending up at 55-27.

    Should be a fun 14 days!

    I posted in another thread that Houston is on a back to back. After being on TNT and then having to go thru customs.....they did not get to their hotel rooms until 3AM. Go Raptors!!

    What a difference a week can make. 7 days ago who could have even imagined a 10-0 streak to end the season? After the loss at Orlando, even making the playoffs looked dicey. Now we're back to discussing HCA AND actually looking forward to playing the Rockets? What a crazy year it's been!

    If I'm reading your tiebreakers correctly, it is only conference that matters since Por and GS are not in the same division.

    Yeah, each conference is guaranteed at least 4th spot.

    But not HCA. There can be a situation when LAC gets 4 and wins their division and POR gets 5, but we get HCA.

    Funny, my beginning of the season prediction was 55 wins. It would be so cool if they hit the nail on the head.

    Man, I cannot find where the hell I made my prediction. It isn't in the thread that people keep bumping. I'm wondering if I made it in a random thread after all the acquisitions over the summer.

    You are correct. Division tiebreakers mean nothing between two teams from different divisions.
