    2-3 over the next 5 seems most likely.

    The Rockets haven't been able to avoid close games, even against bad teams, in their recent stretch. If we can beat the Lakers and Kings decisively while resting our main guys in the 4th quarter, that will make things easier the following night.

    Either 1-4 or 4-1 depends on trade

    Best 4-1
    Prob 3-2
    worst 2-3

    The only loss I'm definitely conceding is the LA Clippers, THAT game is in LA on a back-back, it will be a minor miracle to pull that off.

    0-5, tbh. Will be keeping out multiple players because they are in trade discussions on 19th and 20th. For the rest of the games, the Thomas Robinson/Terrence Williams types that Morey acquires will cause the team to lose.

    Title of next article on CF "The numbers are clear: Aaron Brooks deserves to come off the bench over Jeremy Lin" and Lin sits out the two games just in case the trades go through :grin:

    The one that really worries me is the Clippers. The other teams we should be favorites. Hopefully we come back on a roll.
