[MSNBC] Rockets the only Western team can challenge the Spurs

Dont discount the super star quality of Tmac! He can take game over.

I'll never like our chances of getting past the Spurs in a seven game series until we improve our backcourt. And not with patchwork improvements like Sura, Wesley, and Anderson. They're great as role players, but we need more than a role player in at least one of the two guard spots. Every game seems to follow the same pattern. We hang with them for awhile, but that backcourt speed and quickness wears out the Rocket guards by the fourth quarter.

The Rockets will win a game or two during the season, but the tremendous guard advantage in a series against the Spurs makes for a huge obstacle to overcome. The frontcourt matchups are good, but the backcourt...no way.

Or say the Spurs is the only team who can possibly prevent us from getting the next five championships.

Nice to get some love from the East Coast loving media.

I can see the Rockets getting to the WCF and playing SA for the chance of going to the big dance.

Won't happen. No.1 won't meet No.4 in WCF.
