Houston will be out in the first round. A great run nonetheless but realistically Yao being out is the ultimate reason they will not advance. The West is TOO deep for a team to miss a guy like Yao.
Tonight i don't want Houston to lose, i actually want them to win. I would actually like to see New Orleans lose as many games before the playoffs because the Rockets will inevitably lose atleast 5-7 more games before then.
Rockets should have no problem winning 21 in a row, as their next three games are against the Nets, Hawks, and Bobcats.
Well they're sitting at 18 right now.
